He Can’t Move Without Help. Your Mercy Can Move Mountains

Give Tarik Dignity, Comfort & Respite Before the Sacred Days of Dhul Hijjah

Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullah,

My name is Salma, and I’m the aunt of a beautiful soul named Tarik—a 33-year-old man living with cerebral palsy. I’ve stepped in to help manage this campaign while his mother, Fatima, recovers from severe caregiver burnout and illness.

For over three decades, Fatima has lifted, fed, bathed, dressed, and comforted her son without complaint. But now… she can no longer do it alone.

And Tarik—who has spent a lifetime with limited movement, reliant on others for every basic function—just wants the chance to live with dignity. To be transferred without pain. To stretch his body. To not feel like a burden.

What Happened?

For 14 years, Fatima saved over $150,000 for Tarik’s long-term care. Every dollar was scraped together with love and sacrifice. Then, in a moment of betrayal, it was all stolen in a fraudulent scheme that devastated dozens of families across the global Muslim community.

What was supposed to be Tarik’s comfort… became crisis.

What Tarik Needs Now

Despite this crushing blow, we refuse to give up. And with your help, we’ve already made powerful progress: Tarik now has specialized adaptive equipment to help him transfer without being physically lifted.

But we are still far from meeting his daily care needs. This campaign is no longer about a one-time purchase. It’s about creating sustainable, life-giving care for a young man who depends on it for survival.

Here’s how your donation directly helps Tarik:

Breakdown of Support Needs

Support Category What It Funds Amount Needed

‍♂️ Physiotherapy & Movement Therapies Pain relief, spinal support, stretching, flexibility $20,000

‍⚕️ Respite & Personal Support Workers To relieve caregiver burnout, provide safe daily transfers, hygiene & meal help $25,000

️ Adaptive Equipment Recliners, shower chairs, mobility support (already partially funded) $10,000

☀️ Joy & Human Dignity Tools Books, accessible tech, mental stimulation, outdoor experiences $10,000

TOTAL GOAL: $125,000 USD

Why This Matters

Imagine not being able to turn in your sleep. To scratch your nose. To use the washroom on your own. Imagine needing to ask someone for every basic act of relief.

This is Tarik’s reality. And still—he smiles. He makes du’a for others. He inspires us daily.

But we need you now. His care is urgent. The burnout is real. The cost is rising.

Why Now: Dhul Hijjah Is Approaching

As we approach the most sacred days of the year—the first 10 days of Dhul Hijjah—our hearts are turning to Allah for mercy and miracles. These are the days when good deeds are most beloved to Allah (SWT).

Your donation today could be the action that earns you Jannah. Your share could reach the one heart that completes this campaign.

And your support—right now—could be the reason Tarik is cared for with dignity and comfort for months to come.

A Message from His Aunt, Salma

You may never meet Tarik, but I promise you:

You are in his du’as.

You are in Fatima’s tears.

And you’ll be part of something sacred.

He is a man locked in his body—but not in his soul.

You are the hands and hearts helping him live.

Please—donate. Share. Pray.

Let’s finish what we started.
