Muslims Hurricanes

[Maxamed Caday]

I personally know the brother who is sending out this message for help. He is a white American Muslim formerly known as Chad Sylvester, now also known by the kunya Abu Khalyl. His wife is from Africa and they have six children mashallah. This brother may Allaah reward him, has a da'wah center in Mobile Alabama, he works as a translator for the Darussalam Book Publishing company in Saudi Arabia. He translates classical works of the great scholars from Arabic to English. He has an ijaaza from Sheikh Mubarakpuri to teach Sunnan ibn Majah, and Sheikh Mubarakpuri is none other than the author of the well known book, Ar-Raheeq al-Makhtoom, The Sealed Nectar - which is the most famous contemporary biography of the Prophet Muhammad sulallaahu alayhi wa salaam. So here is the message the brother is trying to get out:

 

AS-SALAMU `ALAYKUM WA RAHMATULLAH:

 

HERE IN MOBILE, WE ARE AWARE OF AT LEAST TWO MUSLIM FAMILIES WHOSE HOMES WERE FLOODED AND EVERYTHING, OR NEARLY EVERYTHING WAS LOST FROM THE HURRICANE WHICH STRUCK HERE AUGUST 29TH-30.

 

WE ARE ALSO AWARE OF AT LEAST ONE FAMILY FROM OCEAN SPRINGS MISSISSIPPI WHOSE ENTIRE HOUSE, EXCEPT FOR THE FRAM WAS COMPLETELY LOST.

 

AT THIS TIME WE ARE TRYING TO FIND OUT THE NUMBER OF MUSLIM FAMILIES FROM THE BILOXI MISSISSIPPI AREA - WE HAVE HEARD THAT THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF DISPLACED, HOMELESS, REFUGEE MUSLIM FAMILIES, WHO ARE CURRENTLY IN THE BATON ROUGE LOUISIANNA AREA, THESE COULD BE FROM ANY OF THE CITIES IN MISSISSIPPI OR LOUISIANNA.

 

WE WILL POST MORE DETAILED INFORMATION WHEN IT IS AVAILABLE.

 

WE HAVE HAD INTERMITANT ELECTRICAL SERVICE IN MOBILE, IT IS ON FOR A WHILE, AND THEN OFF, AS OF LAST NIGHT, IT IS STAYING ON MORE CONSTANTLY, I STILL DO NOT HAVE THE MAIN INTERNET CONNECTION AND AM USING THE PHONE LINE.

 

PLEASE SEND AN E-MAIL TO WHOMEVER YOU KNOW WITH THE LINK TO THIS PAGE ABOUT THIS MESSAGE, ANYONE WHO CAN DONATE TO HELP THESE MUSLIM FAMILIES, PLEASE SEND A CHECK OR MONEY ORDER TO OUR ADDRESS, OR SELECTED "ABOUT US" AND PAY ON LINE VIA DONATIONS - "HURRICANE RELIEF FUND"

 

DAR AL-KITAB WAL-HIKMAH IS A NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION, ALL OF YOUR DONATIONS ARE TAX DETUCTABLE-

 

IF YOU NEED OUR EIN NUMBER FOR YOUR TAXES, SEND PLEASE MENTION THAT WHEN MAKING YOUR PAYMENT.

 

WE HAVE BEEN WORKING ON UPLOADING OUR NEW SITE, BUT HAVING TECHNICAL PROBLEMS, AND AS MOST OF YOU KNOW WE HAVE BEEN TRYING TO RAISE FUNDS TO PAY OFF SOME OF OUR BOOK DEBTS, MUCH OF WHICH IS FOR FREE DA`WAH LITERATURE - AS MANY OF YOU KNOW.

 

SO ALL DONATIONS ARE WELCOME, BUT TODAY, AND FOR THE NEAR FUTURE, THE MUSLIM FAMILIES IN THE GULF-COAST REIGON NEED FINANCIAL AID IMMEDIATELY, AND IT IS POSSIBLE THAT WE ARE THE ONLY ONES WHO CAN GET THE WORD OUT AT THIS TIME DUE TO OUR LOCATION.....

 

FOR ALL WHO BELIEVE IN HIM - ALLAH WILL INCREASE THEIR DONATIONS, AND MULTIPLY THEIR REWARDS.
