Help A Brother Avoid Riba

As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullah

My name is Omar. I’m 18 years old and I’m supposed to start university in about a month, In Sha Allah. I’ll be studying Engineering.

I’m starting this fundraiser because I wasn’t eligible for any financial aid that didn’t involve riba. I looked everywhere, but every option I found was tied to interest. From the beginning, I made the decision that I would never accept riba, even if that meant not going to university at all. It’s not easy, but I’d rather struggle than compromise on something that serious. Allah is enough for us.

The goal is to raise what I need through halal means. I’m starting small and slowly building toward the full amount. The final target is 15,000 dollars USD, In Sha Allah.

If I’m not able to reach it, there’s a real possibility I won’t be able to continue with my studies. I’m doing everything I can, and now I’m asking for your help.

If you can donate, may Allah reward you and increase you in every way. And if you can’t, please share this and make dua. That support alone means more than I can express.

May Allah protect us from ever turning to haram and keep us firm on His path no matter how hard it gets.

Your brother,

Omar
