Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh, Dear donors

My name is Rashid Khan, a student currently studying in Class 11 (Science Group). I come from a humble background where dreams are big, but means are limited. My father, a hardworking man, earns a modest income working as a laborer in a butcher shop. Despite his limited earnings, he bears the heavy responsibility of supporting our family, paying ₹6,000 in house rent, and looking after the needs of two children.

Even in the face of hardship, my father has never allowed his struggles to become an excuse. His greatest wish is to see me get a good education and build a better future—not just for myself, but for our entire family. He believes deeply that education is the key to breaking the cycle of poverty that we have lived in for generations.

Today, I stand at a crucial point in my life. The desire to learn, to excel, and to make my father proud burns brightly in my heart. But our financial situation is making it nearly impossible to pay my school fees of ₹47,000. Without timely support, I fear that my journey of learning will come to a painful halt.

I turn to you, my respected brothers and sisters in faith, with hope and sincerity. I request your kind and generous support to help me continue my studies. Every rupee you donate is not just an investment in my education, but a Sadaqah Jariyah – a continuous charity that can bring ongoing reward from Allah SWT.

In Shaa Allah, with your support and the mercy of Allah, I will strive to be sincere, study hard, and use this opportunity to uplift my family and one day support others in need. Please help me keep my dream alive. May Allah reward you immensely for your generosity and compassion.

May Allah grant barakah in your wealth, accept your charity, and write it among your good deeds. Ameen. Jazakallahukhair.
