and help ..........
Hello joinpakistan,
Dear joinpakistan,
Assalam o
Alikum,
20 Millions Muslims (Women, Children, Old and Young) have
lost EVERYTHING. They are in dire need of help even to survive daily. They have
left nothing.
Their homes destroyed, their livelihoods destroyed, they
dislocated from their neighbourhoods with only what was on their bodies when the
tragedy of the WORST FLOODS IN OVER 80 YEARS IN THE REGION STRUCK causing the
WORST HUMANITARIAN CRISIS in the WORLD today.
• Over 6 Million
still stranded and in threat of immediate DEATH if they don’t receive food aid
soon (UN)
• Over 3.5 Million Children at risk of DEATH from deadly
water-borne diseases (UN).
• Thousands have died and hundreds of thousands
of km2 area submerged under water. Houses, Infrastructure, Cattles, Shops,
Offices, Roads, etc have all been destroyed (UN & Govt of Pak).
• Over
750,000 homes destroyed and Over 8,604 affected villages as per conservative
figures which are still adding up (Govt of Pak).
These 20 Million
Muslims including children, the elderly and women, are living out in the open
mostly without any shelter or tents.
They are faced, on the one hand, with
very hot and humid weather and, on the other hand, torrential rains. They have
been stranded in flood waters for days without clean drinking water or food.
(UN)
In this blessed month of Ramadan, they are asking Allah for help.
They have no one but Allah and their Muslim brothers and sisters to look forward
to.
• Please become the answer to their cries.
• Please show generosity
and brotherhood as our forefathers did.
• Please feel their pain in YOUR
heart as if they were a part of your
family.
• Please try to replicate
what Insar-e-Madina did.
Please come forward and help these
Muslim brothers and sisters devastated by a MASSIVE TRAGEDY in which TENS OF
MILLIONS have LOST EVERYTHING except their lives which are at stake now.
Two Survivors – Two sentences – A cry for help:
Manzoor Ahmed, who escaped from destroyed homes and flooded
villages in Sindh, said, "It would have been better if we had died in the floods
as our current miserable life is so much painful."
"We were able to
escape the flood waters, but hunger may kill us," said Hora Mai, 40, sitting on
a rain-soaked road in Sukkur along with hundreds of other people.
These are
among the over 14 Million people who atleast escaped and need food aid, there
are still Over 6 Million stuck in the flood affected areas who are facing
IMMINENT DEATH need food aid, shelter, water, medicines and rescue.
Our beloved Prophet Muhammad PBUH said that Muslims are like one
body. If one part is hurt another cannot remain unaffected. He (PBUH) also said
one cannot become a Muslim till they like for their brothers (in Islam) what
they like for themselves.
