Assalamu 'Alaikum waRahmatullahi waBarakatuh All Praise Belongs to Allah (swt), and May the Salah and Salam of Allah (swt) be upon our beloved Messenger(saw). Over the last several months our brothers and sisters in Syria have been going through change, a change which none of us are able to grasp, a change which is not within their control. They are going through absolute injustice and brutal massacres under an oppressive tyrannical regime. With the death toll rising, during this difficult and disastrous situation the Muslims in Syria are facing it has compelled us to call out to you all, as Allah tells us in the Quran: "O you who have believed, be persistently standing firm for Allah, witnesses in justice, and do not let the hatred of a people prevent you from being just. Be just; that is nearer to righteousness. And fear Allah; indeed, Allah is Acquainted with what you do." [Qur'an 5:8] Allah is calling upon you and I and all the believers around the world to stand up in prayer and seek His Help and Justice for the oppression happening in Syria. Here is a video account of the sufferings imposed to its people by its oppressive ruler:
Our plea to you brothers and sisters is they need you, and a day may come when we are in need; so do not think twice - take action and stand up for justice in Syria. We are doing a fundraising and awareness campaign for them, you can contribute here:http://www.justgiving.
To donate please visit http://www.justgiving.
It is an obligation upon us all individually and as a community to support them in any way we possibly can. The Prophet (may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) has told us that this Ummah is like a strong support structure and like one body, if one part aches then the whole Ummah should ache. Are we in agony for the Muslims who are being slaughtered and killed for nothing but their faith, for saying their Lord is Allah? What crime have they committed?
Thousands have fled to neighbouring countries, many empty handed. Human Appeal have distributed emergency aid packages to each of these 150 families at a cost of $100. These packages provided refugees with vital supplies during the harrowing experience of fleeing their homes and countries in fear of violence. It is estimated that at least 10,000 people have fled Syria, but there is so much work still to be done.
Do not let this day of yours pass before taking action on the below 5:
1. Raise awareness
2. Write to your government
3. Stand up in prayer
4. Give Charity - http://www.justgiving.com/
5. Raise your hands in Dua
We call only upon Allah by His Beautiful Names and Attributes to remove the Muslims in Syria and all Muslims around the world from their calamities. He is the one who is able to do so, the All-Capable. We ask to Allah (swt) to bring to justice those who can commit such crime against humanity. Ameen
Jazakumullahu Khayran! & please forward this email to all your contacts to help build awareness.
Wassalaamu 'Alaikum waRahmathullahi waBarakaathuhu.
