All of us at Rumah Aman are always grateful to Allah for blessing us with friends who care and believe in what we are doing. This is especially so during this blessed month of Ramadhan and when Rumah Aman 2 is well on the way to completion.
Our friends in Blackburn is a case in point. Since 2008, through the tireless efforts of Sister Sofia Esa and Sister Latifa Umar, the ladies from Blackburn have contributed a total of GBP53,000 (GBP20,000 in 2008 and GBP33,000 in 2009) raised during charity dinners that were organised. Besides the charity functions, contributions from our friends in the U.K have been deposited into an account with Habibsons Bank Ltd and periodically transferred to Malaysia.
In recognition of their generosity, we are giving them the honour of naming the prayer hall (or 'surau' in Malay) at Rumah Aman 2. So come on ladies, put on your thinking caps and submit your entries by posting comments to this post.
To our friends in Blackburn, Jazakallahu Khairan Kathiro and to everyone Ramadhan Kareem.
