Hello dear Community, My name is Muhammad. Br. Abdul Wadud my father who has been in Abiquiu for 45 years is facing some difficulties with his housing situation. , I want to appeal to you today on behalf of Br. Abdul Wadud (Donn E.) Blackmore. He has been a resident of Abiquiu for the past 45 years and has worked in the construction of Dar al Islam. Specifically, he has worked extensively in building the "7-8-windows" of the Mosque and Madrasa building. Additionally, the construction of the small triangular room with a New Mexico flat roof in the women's mosque was his idea. He is also an artist participating in the Abiquiu Studio Tour and has been a valuable asset for our community. Br. Abdul Wadud is mashallah 83 years old, and he needs our help and support in his hour of need.

brothers / sisters. I'm in a bit of turmoil right now. My father had got into a wreck Recently. Begging of September He's lost his car . family / his wife and daughter have been gone for some years know.

Some time back, his landlord passed away, and the inheritors have classified his rented house as not suitable for living and will tear it down. His rent was in the low hundred-dollar range, which was adequate given his social security payments of just under $1000. Alternative housing is more in the range of $1500 and higher, which is completely outside his financial capabilities.

Know he's having to pay 1600 in rent that's not included utilities.
