FEED THE POOR
Feeding the poor and needy is an act that draws us closer to Allah. We earn His forgiveness, mercies and blessings through this act of charity.
“Anyone who looks after and works for a widow and a poor person is like a warrior fighting for Allah?s cause, or like a person who fasts during the day and prays all night. (Bukhari)
Contact with political detainees in Saudi Arabia has not been reinstated, the rights group Prisoners of Conscience said on Twitter.
The group added that the specialised punitive court has deliberately refrained from taking any steps in “state security cases” throughout the coronavirus related closures even though the state considers these cases to be among its top priorities.
Unlike other courts in the country, those dealing with state security cases have been “on an unannounced holiday”, they explained, adding that Saudi Justice Minister Waleed Al-Samaani’s decision to speed up the completion of prisoners’ court cases has only affected criminals and those charged in finance-related cases, and it does not include those held in state security cases.
This has resulted in a “freeze” on all political prisoners’ cases.
