Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh, Dear donors

My name is Mohammed Aqil, a student of 10th Standard at FES Matriculation High School. I am writing to you with a humble heart and sincere hope.

Three years ago, I lost my beloved father. Since then, life has not been the same. I live with my widowed mother who works as a housemaid in multiple homes just to keep our small family going. We live in a rented house, and her earnings barely cover our daily expenses and the rent. Still, my mother is doing everything she can to ensure I continue my education.

Despite her best efforts, we are struggling to pay my school fees. The total fee for this academic year is ₹35,800. My mother has managed to pay ₹10,000 by taking a small loan, but the remaining ₹25,800 is still pending. The deadline is approaching, and without support, I may not be able to sit for my final exams.

I am an orphan, but I believe I’m not alone—I have a community, I have brothers and sisters in Islam who care.

The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said:
"The one who cares for an orphan and myself will be together in Paradise like this," and he held his two fingers together. (Bukhari)

I humbly appeal to our kind-hearted Muslim community—please come forward and help me complete my 10th standard. Your support, no matter how small, will be a means of Sadaqah Jariyah and a step toward securing a better future for an orphan.

May Allah ﷻ bless you and your families with barakah, good health, and Jannah. Ameen.

Please support Mohammed Aqil with whatever you can. Every rupee counts.

Jazakumullahu Khairan.
