Bismillah-ir Rahman-ir Raheem
When the Nur (sallallahu alayhi wasalam) entered Madinah, it was narrated by the lead Jewish Rabi of the city that Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasalam) said: “Spread peace, feed people and pray at night when others are asleep.”
This past week in the UK has been one of the most extreme in terms of the cold weather conditions, and as such, although we complain of the cold whilst seated in warmth, we forget about our fellow community, who do not have the choice to complain, but rather have to survive and suffer through these conditions.
As such, in trying to act upon the words of our Beloved (sallallahu alayhi wasalam), by spreading peace and comfort, feeding people and praying at night so we become a part of the Nur, The Nur Team were upon the streets of London on Sunday (4th March) evening as well as other organisations distributing food, hot drinks, and essential items to the needy. The purpose of this Deen is to serve the needy and to serve one another. Alhamdulillah more than 150 people were fed that evening.
A mini documentary has been put together with a beautiful message given by Shaykh Faid and to also share the experience. “
And We have not sent you other than as a Mercy to all the worlds.” (Surah Al-Anbya, 107)
Be Mercy. Be Nur. Be Hope.
Shaykh Faid Mohammed Said
Watch and #ShareTheNur! Allahumma salli alaa Nur.
