Flood victims need your help – Sri Lanka

 

Assalamu alaikum.
 
As you all are ware rains are causing havoc in Sri Lanka. Today 600 people in Maligawathe and about 1000 people in Mabole have left their homes and are in makeshift homes in schools and mosques. the government has only give dry rations for two meals within the last three days. Many went hungry last night and today for lunch.

We have already contacted the ministry of disaster management and we understand the relief will come only after a lot of red tape. Till then we have an obligation to provide for the basic needs of these people in need.

Many of their houses had been washed away totally including all their possessions. Some have only the wet clothes that they're wearing. We are trying hard to provide immediate relief which at present is food and clothes. Anyone who can either visit them or send any donations, dry rations, clothes or milk food, please contact

Our purpose is to secure and promote the legitimate interests of the Sri Lankan Muslims, considering as legitimate only those Muslim interests that are consistent with the national interest. It is apolitical and non profit making effort. The other reason is that Muslim politicians have been marginalized to a serious extent over many decades, and cannot therefore fully represent Muslim interests. An effective Muslim website can be useful in bringing about this change. Our aim is to unite our community to speak with one voice and to promote an understanding and interactive dialogue with other communities. We are dedicated to make this website a success with the objective of promoting truth, justice and harmony among all citizens of Sri Lanka with unbiased, accurate, truthful and balanced information.
