Ramadan Food Basket 2013


Assalamualaikum Wr. Wb.


'And be steadfast in your prayer and pay charity; whatever good you send forth for your future, you shall find it with Allah, for Allah is well aware of what you do.' Al-Qur’an (2:110)

Every Ramadan Masjid Abdul Gafoor (MAG) donates food baskets to needy families. Opps...correction...the Jemaah of Masjid Abdul Gafoor donate food baskets to needy families via the Ramadan Food Basket (RFB) programme.


That's right. The Jemaah of MAG through the Ladies Wing of MAG helped more than 200 families last year with food items for them to keep and break their fasts. Masha Allah.

Insha Allah this Ramadan MAG Ladies Wing has intended to help 200 needy families through RFB programme. Each food basket costs $80. The monies collected will be solely used for the food baskets. The masjid will absorb all administrative and logistics costs involved. Since this is a programme to help needy families, Zakat money can be used for this donation.

Those of you who wish to be part of this generosity programme may approach the masjid to give your cash donations or send your cheques to the masjid using the form found below.

May Allah (s.w.t) accept our financial sacrifices and our Ibadah in this Ramadan. May He (s.w.t) bless us with His Mercy and Guidance in this world and the Hereafter. Ameen.


Contents of food basket may include:

Rice, cooking oil, condensed/evaporated milk, noodles (mee hoon, Maggi), sugar, tea powder/bags, biscuits, Sardine tins, etc.



Each basket costs $80 only. You are also welcome to donate any amount you wish for this program. Please do not donate foodstuff as we would like to standardize our food baskets.


May Allah (s.w.t) bless you and your family and accept your charity and Ibadah during this Ramadan. Ameen.


Wassalam
