Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh, Dear donors

My name is Tousif, and I come from a very poor family. Life has tested us in many ways, but with the mercy of Allah, we continue to remain patient and hopeful.

Nine years ago, my father suffered a severe brain stroke. Since then, he has been bedridden and completely dependent on us. As the eldest son, I had to leave my education at a young age to support my family. I started working in the vegetable market as a coolie, carrying heavy loads just to earn a small daily wage so that I could provide food, rent, and medicines for my parents.

With Allah’s help, I fulfilled one of my biggest responsibilities by arranging the Nikah of my two sisters. It was not easy, but Alhamdulillah, Allah made it possible.

Today, I continue to struggle to support my parents. I learned driving and now try to work as a driver, but working for others does not give me a stable or regular income. Some days there is work, and some days there is none. Despite working hard, it is still difficult to manage house rent, groceries, and my father’s medical expenses.

My Nikah is scheduled in the month of May, InshaAllah. As I prepare to start a new chapter of life, my biggest Wish is to Own a Small Mini Truck. With a mini truck, I can transport vegetables and goods in the market and earn a stable income to support my parents and my future family with dignity.

Unfortunately, due to our financial condition, it is impossible for me to arrange the money needed to buy a mini truck.

I humbly request the kind-hearted members of the Muslim community to support me in this difficult time. Your Zakat, Sadaqah, or any small contribution can help me build a livelihood and take care of my parents.

Your support will not only help me stand on my own feet but will also give hope to a struggling family.

May Allah reward you for your kindness, ease your difficulties, and bless your wealth with barakah. Ameen. Jazakallahukhair
