A lady came to meet me. She was Sinhala Buddhist lady who embrace Islam. Her Husband is a Malay Muslim. After she gave birth to two children this husband had left her and eloped/ran away with another woman. When I met her son was 17 years working in a Muslim boutique. But this lady didn’t have a place to keep her 11 year old daughter. Many Muslims were willing to take this girl for work as a servant. But no one was willing to give this girl accommodation and an education. Continue Reading »

I mailed this story some months ago. Fathima Rukaiya Beebee is a 34 years old lady from Kalpitiya (Puttlam District). She was born to a very poor Muslim family.

She is willing to come back to Islam but the her husband doesn’t want to embrace. Continue Reading »

Now Dawah Corner has taken on the responsibility of looking after them. We need to buy clothes for them to celebrate this Ramadan Eid-ul-Fitr festival happily.

Believing that every single thing belongs to Allah (nothing is ours though we claim so), and wealth is therefore held by us is a trust is one of the most important principles of Islam.

The word Zakah means ‘purification’ and ‘growth’. In other words, our wealth is purified by setting aside a part of it for those in need. This is similar to pruning of a plant. The wealth is purified and grown by cutting back the balances. Continue Reading »

Charity in Ramadan – Dry ration distribution 2010

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Islam, Assalamu Alaikum Warahmathullah,

Allah’s Messenger Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said:“If the mountain of Uhud were turned into gold for me, I would not like three nights to pass and one dinar still be left with me, excepting what I would leave for paying my debts” meaning, he would not rest until his money was spent in Allah’s cause.

DA’WAH CORNER’s Dry ration distribution charity targets the poor and the needy among both the Reverts and the Muslims. Last year Allah helped us to distribute 51 packs, Alhamdulillah. But this year, Insha Allah, the target quantity will be more than 1000. Continue Reading »

More Than Eighty Ways To Make Daw’ah!

Written by Dr. Bilal Philips

All praise is due to Allaah who expressed the highest praise for the “caller” to his religion saying: “And who is better in speech than one who calls to Allaah and works righteousness and says: ‘Surely I am of the Muslims.’ ”(41: 33). And may Allaah’s peace and blessings be on Prophet Muhammad, the role model, who said: “Whoever calls to guidance will have a reward similar to that of one who follows it.” Continue Reading »
