My name is Khawla and I’m writing this for my close friend Yasmeen because she would never feel able to do this herself. She is a very private and shy person who hates asking for help. Even letting me write this has been really hard for her. Right now though she’s struggling in ways she can’t say out loud.

Over the past week her life has changed very quickly and became public in a way she never expected. The pressure and harassment that followed affected everything. She’s had to leave her job. She doesn’t have a stable place to stay. She’s been moving around just to feel safe and get some rest and what's hurt her most is that her family are no longer speaking to her. Losing that support while everything else has been falling apart has been devastating. She’s tried to stay strong and keep quiet but it’s taken a real toll on her mental health.

Yasmeen has always worked hard and kept to herself. This is about helping her feel stable again and giving her the chance to rebuild as she's now left her abusive marriage. If you’re able to donate, thank you so much. If not, even sharing this would mean a lot. Please help us give yasmeen the chance to breathe and feel safe so she can start again.

May Allah ease her situation and reward anyone who shows her kindness. Thank you
