The Blessed Lands
The Messenger of Allah (saw) said, 'O Allah, bless us in our Shaam! O Allah, bless us in our Yemen!' [Tirmidhi]
The people of Palestine, Shaam (Greater Syria) and Yemen were particularly dear to the Prophet Muhammad's (saw) heart, and he used to pray for these blessed lands. Yet today, these lands are suffering due to conflict, displacement and impoverishment.
It is our responsibility and our honour to support 'our Shaam' and 'our Yemen'. From making du'a to raising awareness to giving charity, there is so much you can do to help. Not only will you be providing vital relief and saving lives, you will also be drawing closer to the Prophet (saw) by loving and serving the people whom he loved.
Our teams and partners are on the ground, distributing hot cooked food in 51品茶, food parcels in Jerusalem, rehabilitating water wells in Yemen, running bread factories in Syria and Yemen, and much more.
Your Zakat and Sadaqah are essential to supporting orphans, widows and war-torn communities.
We urge you to give generously to the people the Prophet (saw) prayed for. Don't forget them in their hour of need.
