Dear brothers and sisters, Assalamu Alaikum,
My dear friend, Tayyaba Beg's family has been hit by tragedy! Due to a rare genetic disease (MPS), at the age of 3, all of her three daughters began to lose their ability to walk, see, eat, talk, and even swallow. Now they live in wheelchairs and on oxygen machines. Tayyaba and her husband are drowning in debt from all the medical expenses. Just one overdue bill for a surgery her daughter had is $8000. I have had the humbling honor of personally visited Tayyaba in her home and she is up day and night caring for her kids (may Allah grant her the highest level of jennah). They don't even have a ramp or a first floor bathroom in their current house, so Tayyaba has to carry her daughters up and down the stairs. The other house (with a ramp) is ready, but they cannot move in until their debts are paid! Now the girls are in dire need of new wheelchairs, which cost $2000 and up each, because their old ones are giving them bruises due to being too tight. They also urgently need medical beds. Please help this family! Please donate generously and share widely.

There seems to be a probelm with the processing system, I live in Ontario so I check Ontario in the drop down menu on the payment page. However, on the next page it reads OH, which doesn't allow the payment to go through. Anyone else having this issue?

Even if the Goal is 1 Billion our Ummah will meet it, and go beyond. Our Ummah has faith. Faith in The Creator's generosity. They surprise people when they do things solely for the sake of Allah, but I am not surprised. One gives up him self, his life, and his family for the sake of Allah. Do you not think that they will give up some paper money? Raise the bar on our Ummah, and you will see what our Ummah will do inshaaAllah Allahu akbar!

Assalamu alaykum, Please spread the word. Abu Mas'ud 'Uqbah bin 'Amr Al-Ansari Al-Badri (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "Whoever guides someone to virtue will be rewarded equivalent to him who practices that good action".[Muslim]. ... - وعن أبي مسعود عقبة بن عمرو الأنصاري البدي رضي الله عنه قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: "من دل على خير فله مثل أجر فاعله" ((رواه مسلم)). Just imagine, you sitting at home and good deeds are falling onto your lap just because you guided someone else to do a good deed. Allahu Akbar. Isn't Islam amazing ? Fi aman Allah

It was narrated from ‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) that when any of us fell sick, the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) would wipe him with his right hand then say: “Adhhib il-ba’s, Rabbi l-naas washfi anta al-Shaafi laa shifaa’a illa shifaa’uka shifaa’an laa yughaadir saqaman (Remove the harm, O Lord of mankind and heal him, for You are the Healer and there is no healing except Your healing, with a healing which does not leave any disease behind).” Narrated by al-Bukhaari (5675)and Muslim (2191). It was narrated that Abu’l-Darda’ (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: I heard the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) say: “Whoever among you suffers some sickness, or his brother suffers some sickness, let him say: ‘Our Lord Allaah Who is in heaven, hallowed be Your name, You will is done in heaven and on earth; as Your mercy is in heaven, bestow it upon the earth. Forgive us our sins. You are
