I wish to thank Almighty and all the fellow workers who have been working tirelessly for a common goal. If anything has restored my faith on our nation and has built hope for the future of my students and children, it is your work in the last few days. I am also very proud of my friends and class fellows who are working in and outside the country with missionary zeal. Yet some do not let any chance to make a witty remark go wasted. Some of these remarks are very provocative but I have to let go because of lack of time.
“Usi ke dil mein tarazu hay meri taigh-e-junoon
Usi ke ser pe mera saya-e-amaan bhi hay.”
However, let us make no mistake. A much daunting task is lying ahead. Please note that I wish to appoint some contact people so that things do not have to wait for me. Moreover, those who wish to come forward, especially present and past students of MMC can contact them directly.
Incharge for next week’s Wednesday’s camp:
- Syed Taqi Muhammad 03013851249
- Dr. Habib Chohan 03342800672.
Incharge for next week’s Thursday’s camp:
- Dr. Shamsul Arifeen
- Sheikh Ashiq Ali 03332979122
Base Camp Incharge
- Dr. Zafar Abbas 03332971183
(He should be contacted if I cannot be reached).
After this week, there will be much demanding week and we will go with full force and hold camps Insha Allah at Thatta, Sajawal and Durro. I am still on the planning side regarding these camps and will disclose details once they have matured.
I urge all those who wish to come forward to contact above people. However, please note that apart from our students, Dowites and people whom we know fairly well, we cannot take total strangers with us. Please do not be upset at this. Lot of people are doing good work and can accommodate workers. I have responsibility of my students and cannot take any risk.
Many thanks for those who wish to contribute on monetary basis. Today the children of my wife’s school surprised me with what they have been collecting through their pocket money. A veiled lady came in with RS. 10,000. Allah will never let this spirit go wasted. Those who cannot reach Mirpurkhas or Early Learning Centre Karachi are requested to deposit money in following account:
Account Name: Patients' welfare club (PWC) MMCH
Account number 0076-01821681-03
Bank: Habib Bank Limited M.A. Jinnah Road Branch
Bank Code 0076
Swift Code: HABBPKKA (for those depositing outside Pakistan).
Please do not forget to tell us if it is Zakaat money as many proud sufferers do not wish to accept Zakaat and we have to respect their right to make a choice.
That reminds me to request coworkers that like previous occasions, please make sure to take verbal permission before any photograph. Consent is very important. Do not take it for granted. If you see any glimpse of hesitation, DONOT take photographs.
Lastly please remember not to feel magnanimous if Allah has given you this opportunity to work for others. We are not doing Ehsan on anyone. It is Allah’s Ehsan on us that He has chosen us to be his servant. We should be humble, soft and kind to those affected.
Even if someone is rude or is trying to get a little extra, be patient. We cannot imagine what turmoil they are facing.
May Allah help us all and end our people and our country’s plight soon.
Prof. Dr. Syed Razi Muhammad |
