Pakistan Flood Update

As-salmua alaykum,
As you all probably know, several areas in Pakistan are suffering from severe flooding. Entire villages have been washed away and people are struggling to find food, shelter and clothing. Today there are confirmed reports about the outbreak of cholera in some areas. (A lot of the people suffering struggle to make their ends meet in normal times, so one cant imagine how hard it is for them right now).

A gentle reminder to all of us to donate what we can. Even $1 will help someone! Islamic Relief is active in Pakistan and has posted appeals on its website:

Islamic Relief (Canada Site)

Islamic Relief (International website)

W'salams

Hammad

P.S.

This Video shows some scenes of the devastation caused there:
