Brother - I was involved with two charity dinners in close succession following the earthquake in Pakistan. In the space of a few days we raised over £250,000 i.e. just over a quarter of a million pounds (after hall expenses etc were paid off) from these two dinners which went directly to the victims.

Brother - and before we started doing charity dinners Muslims were still donating as much (if not more)!!! The beautiful mosques that we have in this country and abroad are testamount to the generosity of the Mo'mineen. Muslims give because of their emaan. We do not need to be propped up and motivated by these false ways and methods of the enemies of Allah and his Rasool (s.a.w).

Okay so we many to raise huge amounts in a charity dinner, but was that really due to the event or due to the imaan and the compassion of the Muslims?

Furthermore, if we follow the ways of the non Muslims, thinking it to be Deen, and manage to raise $10 million , there will be no barakat in that money due to the fisk and fujoor and 'bay-pardagee' (not observing hijaab) and the israaf and wastage and unislamic practices that are rampant at these events! What good can there be in such money??!!!

Allah doesn't need money to solve our problems; a little with Barakat is better than lots without (barakah)!!!!

Wake up Muslims and stop srguing for a false cause!!!

sorry brothers and sisters for the rant.....
