UPDATE – December 2025 

 Alhamdulillah, I was able to avoid homelessness for the time being, and I’m truly grateful to everyone who supported me during that difficult period. I want to be transparent and update this GoFundMe to reflect where things stand today. Although I’m no longer in immediate crisis, I’m still facing heavy financial pressure and significant debt that I’ve been carrying for years. Rent, bills, and basic living expenses continue to rise, and I’m doing everything I can to keep my life stable while continuing my work, reminders, and writing. This campaign is now focused on helping me stabilize long-term, get out of overwhelming debt, and finally rebuild my life with dignity and consistency. Your support, even in small amounts, truly makes a difference and helps me stay afloat while I continue working hard and sharing Islamic reminders daily. Thank you for standing with me. May Allah reward you for supporting someone trying to get back on his feet. JazakAllah khair.

Assalam alaikum, and hello everyone,

My name is Justin Ross — a Canadian revert to Islam, author of 99 Reflections: Faith in the Everyday, and a creator who shares Islamic reflections and reminders online.

Through my writing and videos, I aim to inspire faith, hope, and connection with Allah — especially for those who are struggling or searching for guidance like I once was. Every reminder, reflection, and story I share is meant to reach hearts and remind people that light always follows hardship.

I’m currently facing homelessness and doing my best to stay afloat during this difficult time. Your donations directly help me cover basic needs like shelter, food, and transportation, while also allowing me to continue creating meaningful content that inspires and uplifts others. Every contribution—no matter how small—makes a real difference and helps me stay focused on spreading positivity, faith, and hope through my work. Thank you for your support and compassion.

Whether you contribute, make du’a, or share the link, it all means the world to me. Thank you for being part of this journey and for believing in what this message stands for.

May Allah reward you for every act of support and bring barakah to your life and sustenance.

— Justin Ross
