This is an urgent appeal for one of our beloved and fun loving former Alif Schoolhouse teachers who suddenly passed.

Surely to Allah we belong and to Him we return. May Allah have mercy on her and grant her the highest level of Jannah. Ameen.

She was without family in this country. Her family in Morocco requires support to transport her home. Please contribute any amount you can and share widely so we can support our sister and her family. (The fundraiser is verified - run by the mosque and we’re in touch with her family.)
