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.

In Pakistan, Ummah Welfare Trust has been running a maintenance programme for all the wells it has constructed in recent years. Hundreds of wells have been repaired and maintained over the past year, alhamdulillah. uwt.org

Today is the day of 'Ashurah (10th Muharram), الحمد لله On this virtuous day, Allah gave victory to Musa 'alayhis-salaam and his followers, despite being vastly outnumbered, over the tyrant Pharaoh and his people. Allah will grant victory to the righteous who support His cause; He will fulfill their wishes and never betray them. And He says (as translation), “Indeed, We will support Our Messengers and those who believe during the life of this world and on the Day when the witnesses will stand.” (Surah Ghafir, 51). We ask Allah on this day, when the believers fast like Musa fasted out of gratitude to his Lord, to correct our affairs; make us from those who are righteous; and assist the Ummah like He did the Ummah of Musa.
