Pakistan’s military says more than 18,000 have been killed by Saturday’s huge earthquake, and it is feared the death toll could climb much further.
Another 40,000 people are believed to be injured, said military spokesman Major-General Shaukat Sultan
…
well.. some one has said that the extimate has gone upto 100,000 bt 30,000 i think are confirmed.. because the 18.000 are from the cities.. bt the villages are unaccounted for..
God bless all...
good thread Spock;
guys we all need to do whatever we personally can to whatever extent. Our country needs us and our countrymen have no one else but us to expect help from. With God's blessings we will overcome this hard time.
My mom just told me about our very distant relatives (who I even don't know) in Muzafarabad, Kashmir, who said that their house started shaking badly, so they all ran out to their lawn and they saw their house tore down in front of their eyes. But, Al-Hamdulillah, no one is hurt in their family.
Alhamdolillah they survived … even the damage is very painful but a house can be built again with the help of Allah the almighty but perished life doesn’t return … my prayers for all those who suffered regardless of religion and country … May Allah SWT grant them strenght to face the upcoming difficulties
It’s now our duties (as Pakistanis) to help our countrymen in every regard … i think the most effective way would be to donate heavily especially considering its a very beloved deed in sight of Allah SWT to donate inteh holy month of Ramdhan
My condolences goes to people of pakistan or anyone who may have lost their family,friend, and loved ones in this hardhship. Iam volunteering in university to raise fund as much as we can and send relief fund to Government of pakistan asap. Last night saturday i cancelled all my weekend activities, stood and raised 8000$ so far in our synagogue to help victims of earthquake. I personally think this is not enough, we are doing more and as much as i can to raise more money.
