Do something!

As this very sentence is being written, 280 Gazan lifes have been mercilessly snatched away. Hundreds more are injured to varying extent, some might even be fatal.

And yet we sit here doing nothing significant... we read the news to keep ourselves up to date, we gave the Israel Defense Force (IDF) a tongue lashing (that they couldn't even hear) and we prayed for the safety of our brothers in Palestine.

Here's something else, may or may not be so significant, but insya Allah within our (limited) powers.

Go figure!


"Abu Hurairah r.a. reported Allah's Messenger S.A.W as saying: 'Charity does not in any way decrease the wealth, and the servant who forgives, Allah adds to his respect, and the one who shows humility, Allah elevates him in the estimation (of the people)."

Muslim Vol. 4, Hadeeth 6264

Admittedly, this is unlikely to help in the short term.. Heck, even the UN is having problem helping out (humanitarian-wise) in the short term. But make use of the current sentiment, gain something from all the losses.

If you don't have one (sentiment), I feel sorry for you :(
