How Your Zakat Helped Summaya Care for Her Baby When She Had No One Else
How Your Zakat Helped Summaya Care for Her Baby When She Had No One Else
Summaya married shortly after arriving in the UK, hoping to build a secure future. But when she was eight months pregnant, she woke up one morning to find her husband gone. He hasn’t contacted her since.
With no family in the UK, Summaya went through the birth alone, including a C-section. Still recovering and caring for her baby with no support, she was under immense stress. And with no income, buying essentials like milk and nappies was out of reach.
The imam at her local mosque told her about NZF. Her application was accepted, and she could finally buy what her daughter needed. After months of deep distress, Summaya was overwhelmed with gratitude.
Summaya hopes to find part-time work once her daughter starts nursery. She admits she’s anxious about leaving her daughter, but she’s determined to build a better future for them both.
“I am very thankful to you and the NZF team for helping me at this time when I don’t have any support from anyone except Allah. I would like to give you many thanks and duas that Allah gives you all kinds of resources. You have always been a help and support to people.”
