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)

Indian politician Kaneez Fatima has been protesting for over a year against a ban on hijabs in colleges, in her home state of Karnataka. Despite the ban and the toxic atmosphere created by Hindu nationalist protests, Fatima beat her anti-hijab rival from the BJP to be re-elected to the legislative assembly.
