Salaam brothers and sisters,
I’m an old poster who hasn’t been active on reddit in years mostly for my own mental wellbeing. I have recently been in touch with an old colleague who I worked with during my travels to India. As you may all know, the situation there is pretty bad for the Muslim families, especially the ones who are living in poverty.
I worked with brother Shafaqat during my time there and he was a wonderful person. He was the office errand boy/cook/cleaner. As he tells me, during the times riots were happening in Delhi, he was being harassed and mocked for his faith by people who had worked with him for years. In the ensuing lockdown he was fired by his employer and not even paid for the work done. He is supporting his parents, wife, children and his sister’s family and reached out to me for support. I have sent him some money and also decided to start a Gofundme.
There are two other families that I’m also trying to help. They were driven out of their home during the riots but we lost touch with them during the lockdown. Hopefully, I can get back in touch to help them out.
If anyone here can help support these poor brothers and sisters, the link to the gofundme is here. Jazakallah Khayran.
PS. If these posts are inappropriate to the subreddit, please let me know and I’ll take it down.
