MKA USA Response to the Oklahoma Tragedy

The leaders and membership of Majlis-Khuddamul Ahmadiyya USA, the Ahmadiyya Muslim Youth Organization, maintain solidarity with the people of Oklahoma and Texas. We too acknowledge the pain of families in Moore and Newcastle Oklahoma as well as all the areas affected. Our thoughts and prayers are with them and we are supportive of them in their long journey to recovery. As believing youth, we recognize that there are many questions that come up when loss of life, property and peace of mind occur. In spite of these challenges as brothers, friends and neighbors, we support the devastated communities that are affected. We pray for their recovery and their overcoming of all challenges. We all belong to God, and should He call us back may He give strength to the loved ones we leave behind. As a youth auxiliary pledging service to our nation and countrymen, we are merging with Humanity First in providing volunteers to affected families.

Fact of the Day

If all Qur'ans in the world today were burned and destroyed, the original Arabic would still remain. This is because millions of Muslims, called Hafiz (or "preservers") have memorized the text letter for letter from beginning to end, every word and syllable. Also, chapters from the Qur'an are precisely recited from memory by every Muslim in each of the five daily prayers.
EpitomeVolunteerI was in Long Beach, New York this weekend where I came across an amazing story of a volunteer. Burama Diba, from Gambia, was visiting his brother on vacation in Seattle. He saw the news of Hurricane Sandy and its devestation. Instead of enjoying his 2 week vacation, he took the initiative and found his way to New York to help first hand. He was volunteering with the organization Humanity First USA. His story inspired me to make this iReport. I hope it inspires others to volunteer. Video by Muhsin Shahid, Editing by Ahmad Chaudhry.
