Secure a Legacy for a Late UWT Volunteer https://www.justgiving.com/page/ilm-orchard-190 Sister Shebina was one of Ummah Welfare Trust’s earliest volunteers in Birmingham. For over a decade, she strove to help the poor and needy, always being among the first to bake for charity events, assist on fundraising days and rally others to support the cause. Sadly, she passed away earlier this week after suffering a brain haemorrhage. May Allah have mercy on our sister. May He forgive her sins, accept all her efforts, contributions and sacrifices, elevate her rank and grant her the highest abode in Jannah. Help establish a legacy of sadaqah jariyah on her behalf by donating towards the construction of a well in her name.
