The Alkauthar Institute wishes to support the following initiative by Mercy Mission South Africa.
"Righteousness is not turning your faces towards the east or the west. Righteous are those who believe in GOD, the Last Day, the angels, the scripture, and the prophets; and they give the money, cheerfully, to the relatives, the orphans, the needy, the traveling alien, the beggars, and to free the slaves; and they observe the Contact Prayers (Salat) and give the obligatory charity (Zakat); and they keep their word whenever they make a promise; and they steadfastly persevere in the face of persecution, hardship, and war. These are the truthful; these are the righteous." [2:177]
A Fresh New Initiative has been launched by Mercy Mission South Africa. It seeks to empower the muslim community, to assist those less fortunate than themselves, by providing selected teams with R4000, to raise additional funds for a worthy cause. The cause should preferably be a ‘need in your own community’.
Mercy Mission will provide full support to those wanting to undertake such a project in their locality.
This initiative has been run by Mercy Mission Canada and has been a tremendous success Alhamdulillah.
