Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim.
All praise belongs to ALLAH. We praise Him and we seek help and forgiveness from Him
alone. We seek refuge in ALLAH from the evils of ourselves and from the mischief of our
own misdeeds. Whomever ALLAH guides shall not be misguided, and whomever ALLAH leads
astray shall never be guided. I bear witness that there is no God worthy of worship other
than ALLAH (swt), and I bear witness that Muhammad ibn Abdullah (saaws) is His servant and
Messenger.
ALLAH ta'ala informs us from Qur`an: You are the best community raised up for mankind.
You enjoin right conduct and forbid indecency, and you believe in ALLAH! And if the People
of The Book had believed it would have been better for them. Some of them are believers,
but most of them are evil livers.
As-Salaamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullah.
Dear sisters in ISLAM,
I hope I am among the first (and definitely not the last) to congratulate you in your
undertaking the task of forming the sister's wing of the UNITED MUSLIM MOVEMENT AGAINST
HOMELESSNESS. Al-hamdullilah! May ALLAH ta`ala shower all of you with His Grace and Mercy.
Surely, once you go out on the road to help the needy you find it to be an endless road.
Yet, it is a road full of blessings and reward. Only the selfless and sincere hearts can
traverse its many steep hills and valleys. Perhaps history will honor well the stories of
those who willingly choose to become helpers of fallin humanity as there faced with the
task of overcoming challenges that can inspire us and future generations to come. I am
proud to have contributed to the cause in my
small way bi-iznillah, and am honored to know that you shall carry on nobly towards the
future in the face of every obstacle seeking only the good pleasure of ALLAH!
May you always be guided by ALLAHU Subhana Wa Ta`ala and the Sunnah of His Prophet and Messenger Muhammad, Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Salaam. You have my respect and my commitment to help you in the doing of good, as much as I am able to do so. I admonish myself first and then you, to abide by the words of our LORD (swt) as He demands from the Muslims: "Oh' believers! Fear ALLAH as He should be feared and die not except as Muslims".
Again, congratulations on your coming together and your achievements thus far, and may
ALLAH reward you immensely in this life and the next. Ameen.
"Oh' ALLAH, please broarden our shoulders and strengthen our backs, that we may bear
the burdens Thou hast laid down upon us, but lay not upon us a burden like Thou hast laid
down upon those who went before us; nor lay down upon us a burden greater than we can
bear." Ameen.
Wa Salaam
