As salaamu alaykum wa rahma tullahi wa barakaatuh,

This Ramadan I am helping Smiling Faces create a village complex that can provide careers for The Gambian people, a home for Orphans, water for locals and residents and a form of income generation for the stability of the project. I will be focused on helping build the orphanage. The village will be situated in the smiling coast of Africa, Gambia. With most of the country living in poverty it is time we take our small steps to make a difference and let these small steps pave way for a huge impact.

The messenger of Allah -peace and prayer of Allah be upon him- said:

ما نقصت صدقة من مال وما زاد الله عبدا بعفو إلا عزا

“Wealth will not be decreased by giving charity. And a forgiving slave must be rewarded by Allah with authority.” (Narrated by Muslim, no. 2588)
