Syria cont'd
Yesterday Baba went to the dollar store to get money rolls for all the money that Yusuf has collected. This morning after breakfast the four of us (Ibby too!) sat down, sorted, counted and rolled all the change. [We could have just gone to the grocery store and put it all in those machines that do it for you, but this way there was more involvement and learning :) ! ] . MashaAllah the total so far is $583. This has all been due to Yusuf's effort. I must say I am inspired and proud of the courage he has... its not easy going around asking people for money but his determination to help his brothers and sisters in Syria has given him the motivation to do so!
May Allah SWT always guide him and keep his heart soft towards helping his brothers and sisters around the world and continue to make him an inspiration for us, Ameen! <3
