Raising Funds to House a Homeless Sick Sister

Sister Rachida Zahran is one of many sisters in Morocco currently fighting a long battle with ovarian cancer. However, she is also in the unfortunate position of not being able to look after herself finacially and has no home to live in. What's worse, the cancer has now spread to her kidneys meaning more aggressive treatments will be needed. It is a hard enough battle trying to get the treatment that she needs, but then not even having a home to go to after treatments in order to recover, is just awful. That is why we would like to try and raise the funds through this page during the blessed month of Ramadan, to secure Rachida a place of her own. Any funds above the cost of the property that we manage to raise, will go towards paperwork fees and furniture for her new home.

Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Whoever relieves the hardship of a believer in this world, Allah will relieve his hardship on the Day of Resurrection. Whoever helps ease one in difficulty, Allah will make it easy for him in this world and the Hereafter. Whoever conceals the faults of a Muslim, Allah will conceal his faults in this world and the Hereafter. Allah helps the servant as long as he helps his brother. Whoever travels a path in search of knowledge, Allah will make easy for him a path to Paradise. People do not gather in the houses of Allah, reciting the Book of Allah and studying it together, but that tranquility will descend upon them, mercy will cover them, angels will surround them, and Allah will mention them to those near Him. Whoever is slow to good deeds will not be hastened by his lineage.”
