Gratitude
Members of the Maghreb community in Tarka said the initiative was for them to show gratitude for efforts exerted by the Imam, instead of granting him money and donations collected from people.
In reaction, the Imam said the surprise greatly warmed his heart.
“My joy was heightened by the love shown by these generous believers and they’re encircling me with their supplications…” he wrote.
“I pray for their health and well-being, and may God make their sons and daughters righteous.”
