Palestine Emergency Appeal

Jun 2, 2021

The Messenger of Allah (SAW) said:

“The parable of the believers in their affection, mercy, and compassion for each other is that of a body. When any limb aches, the whole body reacts with sleeplessness and fever.”

[Sahih al-Bukhari 2586]

 With the escalations in Palestine since May 2021, many civilians were forced to endure several consecutive days of intense bombardment, resulting in over 232 Palestinians killed (including 65 children), and over 1900 people injured. The damage also caused many infrastructures to collapse leaving thousands of families displaced.

Al Huda Institute and Elementary School partnered with Islamic Relief to provide the much needed support to those affected by this devastating conflict.

With your help, we were able to raise $18,424 to support our brothers and sisters!
