Assalmulaikum!
The kingdom of Malaysia has welcomed refugees from all over the world; despite finding safety, many struggle daily to secure their basic needs. Among them are over 50 Somalian refugee women, some of whom are upbringing orphans and live under harsh circumstances.
If we fail to assist these women promptly, they will be compelled to work double shifts, significantly increasing their risk of exposure. As UN card holders, they are prohibited from working in the country, leaving them vulnerable to potential discovery by authorities and subsequent deportation to their devastated home countries at any moment. It is imperative that we act now to offer them the support they desperately need.
This community of Somalian women and children faces many challenges on a daily basis, including:
Allaah S.W.T says (interpretation of the meaning):
“Worship Allaah and join none with Him (in worship), and do good to parents, kinsfolk, orphans, Al-Masaakeen (the poor), the neighbour who is near to kin, the neighbour who is a stranger, the companion by your side, the wayfarer (you meet), and those (slaves) whom your right hands possess. “Verily, Allaah does not like such as are proud and boastful.” – [al-Nisa’ 4:36]
The only job available to these Somalian refugees is to work as house cleaners. In addition to working informally, they can only get a maximum of four jobs per week and only earn around $20 for a full day’s work. They lack health insurance, retirement plans, and work contracts.
Their basic needs far outweigh their income. Many of these women are raising three to four children, and they must also pay rent, utilities, transportation, and school fees.
In this campaign, we aim to provide $1,000 for each family. This will cover the following:
As the Muslim Ummah, we are responsible for helping our brothers and sisters in need. By donating to this campaign, you can help make a difference in the lives of these hardworking women and their children. Please consider sharing your blessings toward making a better and brighter life for these needy refugees.
A man once asked the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), “Which aspect of Islam is best?” He replied, “Feeding people and greeting those you know and those you don’t know.”
When you donate to this campaign, you will not only be helping those in need, but you will also be gaining the pleasure of Allah.
Please donate whatever you can, no matter how small. Every bit will make a difference.
May Allah bless you and your loved ones, and may He reward you for your generosity. Ameen.
Thank you for your support!
