All Praise is due to Allah (SWT) the Lord of the Worlds and Peace and Salutations be upon on our Beloved Prophet Nabi Muhammad (Peace Be upon Him)

A few friends of Madrassa An-Noor for the Blind, Brother Ismail Ahmed, Muhammad Chohan and our Princpal, (Moulana) Hassan AK Murchie visited the Za’tari refugee camp in Jordan, this May 2014. This is one of the biggest refugee camps in the world and it is situated near the Jordan/Syrian Border where hundreds of refugees arrive everyday to escape the war in Syria.

Among the refugees are woman, children and the disabled. Among them also, there are people who are Blind. In a humble contribution to ease their hardship, Madrassa An-Noor for the Blind has partnered with the Al-Imdaad Foundation of South Africa to sponsor special container homes to Blind refugees and their families.

Presently, most of them are living in tents. An upgrade to a container home will definitely make their lives easier as these homes have their own private bathroom and toilet facilities. The cost to sponsor one of these homes will be R35 000 including furniture, groceries and other essential items.

However, we have stipulated a clause. This home will be gifted to that family which has a blind member. We are certain that this condition will enhance the dignity and care for the blind living in the camp.

May Allah bless us to witness the joy on the face of our Blind brother and sister when they receive the keys to their new homes. Your assistance to their Happiness by means of your financial contribution to this project will be greatly rewarded by Allah in this World and the Hereafter.
