As many of you know, Imam Siraj Wahhaj, a pillar of the Western Muslim Community, was recently diagnosed with cancer. A man who has given his life to the Muslim community, his hospital bills for his treatment currently stand at over $150,000. Despite several fundraising efforts in the US, Imam Siraj still needs $75,000 to cover his treatment expenses.
Fundraising is sometimes difficult, and we as University students struggle to raise a few hundred pounds to support our own Islamic Societies. Imam Siraj is a man who has raised millions of pounds for Muslim communities in the West. He has built masjids, travelled to our campuses, masjids and conferences, and has given his time so we could learn and be inspired by the deen of Allah swt.
FOSIS is asking all Islamic Societies, Masajid and Islamic Centres to designate Friday May 15th 2009 as Imam Siraj Day. Specifically, after the Jummah prayer on campus and at the Masjid, we request all Imams and ISOC Presidents to make a call for donations to help Imam Siraj. A few hundred pounds from hundreds of Islamic Societies and Mosques can make a world of difference. If 100 ISOCs and Mosques raise £500 each, we can InshAllah cover all of Imam Siraj's remaining costs!
This is an excellent outreach opportunity for the British Muslim community. What a wonderful achievement and sign of solidarity it would be if we as a community were to raise enough funds to pay off Imam Siraj’s medical bills. So far our Sisters and Brothers in the United States have managed to raise $75, 000. Let us compete for good deeds inshAllah and try to beat their laudable achievement.
We request all Mosques, ISOCS and Islamic Centres to partake in Imam Siraj Day and fundraise for the Imam.
If you have further questions or concerns, please contact Oussama Mezoui, FOSIS Head of Campaigns at
