URGENT STAGE 4 CANCER HELP SHEK AHMED GET HOME

Shek Ahmed Abdiwahab came to Canada in the year of 2013. He left Africa to start a new life so he can work and support his family back home. After seven years, he had finally became a permanent resident of Canada. Once he became a PR, he decided to bring his family to Canada. Sadly, COVID-19 had made his family's immigration process delayed.

In 2018, he had been diagnosed with Gastric Cancer. Over the last two years, he has been getting Chemotherapy to help with his condition. Unfortunately, the Chemotherapy was not killing enough of his cells. During this time alone, he had became severely sick and doctor's had recently shared that Shek Ahmed had reached stage IV Gastric Cancer.

Mr. Abdiwahab is increasingly frail and is currently in palliative care. We do not know how long he will live, so it's extremely crucial for him to be with his family during this time of failing health. It's his last wish for his family to be by his side for relief and assistance. Mr. Abdiwahab has five beautiful children, and his wife all living in Nairobi, Kenya.

We hope to raise enough money for Shek Ahmed to fly home to Nairobi, Kenya to be with his family. He would need Palliative care services while flying, such as a specific bed and portable oxygen concentrator. This will cost $8,000.

The earliest flight available for Shek Ahmed and his condition is as close as June 20th. There is less than 10 days until this flight. This is a very urgent situation. We must act fast.

We will be fundraising for Shek Ahmed as a community. Our goal is to pay his ticket expenses through Ethiopian Airlines. Please join and support Shek Ahmed by donating.  All donations, big or small will be greatly appreciated.

Prophet Muhammad PBUH said, “Every Muslim must give charity”. His companions asked, “O Messenger of Allah, what if someone cannot do that?” He said, “Then let him help someone who is in desperate need.” He then said, “Then let him do good, and refrain from doing evil, and that will be an act of charity on his part.” [Sahih ul Bhukari and Muslim]

"Allah SWT said (to man), 'Spend (in charity), for then I will compensate you (generously)' (Bukhari)

Protect yourself from hell-fire even by giving a piece of date as charity (Al-Bikhari and Muslim)
