Let's take care of the Ummah's Orphans

For many children around the world they have no one to take care of them. They can only dream of a loving parent's hug, or the opportunity to gain an education so that they can stand on their own feet in the future.

This Ramadan, let's remember the orphans around the world and unite to support them.

I'm raising funds to support orphans around the world in places such as:

Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Chechnya, Ethiopia, India, Kenya, Mali, Niger, Somalia, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Yemen, Albania, Indonesia, Iraq, Pakistan, Bosnia Herzegovina, Jordan, Kosovo, Lebanon, Palestine

Just £360 can support an orphan for an entire year. 

The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Myself and the caretaker of an orphan will be in Paradise like this,” and he held his two fingers together. (Bukhari)

Around the world, Islamic Relief is already supporting thousands of orphaned children affected by war, bereavement, poverty and ill-health, offering them the chance for a better future.

Often, Islamic Relief’s support does not end when the child becomes a young adult; in 2018 several orphans joined Islamic Relief’s Pakistan team as interns, getting a helping hand into the world of work.

In Bangladesh, where orphaned children are more likely to miss out on education, Islamic Relief helped their guardians set up small enterprises in return for them sending children to school. The project helped increase access to basic services, creating a positive cycle of education, wellbeing and opportunity – reflecting the integrated approach that is the hallmark of Islamic Relief’s projects. As a result, 700 families saw their average income increase by over 400 per cent, while all the children regularly attend school.

Islamic Relief is literally saving and transforming lives.

Just £360 can support an orphan for an entire year.
