got this from somewhere…real eye opener..Assalamu Alaikkum
I am an American, working for a Christian AID Agency for Ethiopia
where
our Muslim brothers and sisters are dying from hunger and starvation.
As a
Muslim, let me remind myself first and you second as a
Brothers/Sisters in
Islam, my duties and responsibilities at this critical time for our
fellow
Ethiopian brothers and sisters today.Do you know the distance between Saudi Arabia where 70% of the world
oil
reserves and 90% gas reserves are and Ethiopia where our little
Muhammeds
and Ahmeds and Fathimas and Khadijas are dying because of hunger and
thirst? It is less than 300 miles where Islam was born and
established
by our Prophet Muhammed (PBUH)!!. One country is enjoying all the
best
food of the world and the other is dying because there is no water to
drink and no food to eat!!!. But today in Ethiopia, a number of
children
with the names of Muhammads, Ahmeds and Khadijas and Fathimas are
dying
every minutes. They are Muslims like myself, you and the Saudis.The first Hijrah ordered by our Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was to
Ethiopia
when those who were reverted to Islam were persecuted by the Makkan
Pagans
unable to bear the worst torture mankind could imagine. At that time
these Ethiopians have given to the Saudis full protection and
shelter.How much food and money we are wasting daily and throwing them as
waste!.
Next time when you throw your excess food, remember the poor children
of
Ethiopia who are dying without food!!!Why Islam made compulsory FASTING? To understand the pain of hunger
physically. Otherwise, we all will be MUNAFIQS and will be answerable
on
the day of judgement. Believe me, all our prayers will be in vain!.Why Islam made compulsory ZAKATH & SADAKAH? Does our money and wealth
are
lying in the coffers of Interest (Riba) based banks? When we die, can
we
take along with us our money, wealth and other valuables? No way!.Remember what Qur’an says about orphans, poor people and neighbours!.
Remember how our Prophet was kind with orphans!! Remember how our
fatty
pot bellies growing bigger and bigger comparing to the skeleton of
Muslim
children of Ethiopia dying without food and water!!! Please afraid of
Allah SWT’s wrath for not taking timely action.Also how much the other Gulf countries are contributing for Ethiopia.
Almost nothing. Shame on us!. We are all thinking that Ethiopia is an
untouchable country and deserve dying instead of living. I wonder why
our
brothers are not doing the same contribution that was done to Bosnia,
Turkey and other countries?. May be their skin colours? Are we racist
and
selfish or double standard Muslims or lying to ourselves or to Allah,
where is this Muslim brotherhood? Whom are we fooling? May Allah SWT
may
save us from the hell fire. Aameen.Rain is created by Allah and the same rain will fail one day in your
country also. If our Prophet (PBUH) live among us today, this would
have
never happened. Islam is not mere a label!Do you know the cost of one F-16 plane? The cost of one plane is
enough to
save more lives today. I am reminding you, because I will be the
witness
against you for not taking appropriate action on a tragic situation
like
this, specially your neighbour Ethiopia is dying. We do not know when
Saudi Arabia will take responsibility of leadership in assisting our
Muslim Ummah irrespective of their skin colours?Our Jewish friends have taken care of Falasha Jews of Ethiopia. We
are not
asking for to accommodate them, but only give them food to survive.Kindly request the so called Muslim countries and their leadership as
well
as good hearted individuals to do something before more and more
Muhammads
and Ahmeds die away on a slow and painful death.Wassalam
A Believer
Let us sacrifice at least one day food, so that we can show the
solidarity
along these poor innocent orphan children. At least let us learn from
the
act of Charity from Christians (Every Christian denominations are
talking
about Ethiopia after Indonesia’s conversion success).If you do not want to happen this tragedy to your family and children
in
future, please pass this to another 100 Muslim brothers and sisters.
Please forgive me if I hurt your feelings. May Allah Guide All of us.Islam never appreciate those who give only lip sympathy or act of an
arm
chair critique, please act now.. If you cannot send 100 people this
circular, at least pass to another 10 people.WILL YOU MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS?
DO IT NOW!
