Turkey Eartquake

[ummtaalib]

Turkey Earthquakes: Today, the 6 Feb 2023, is indeed a very sad day for the Muslim Ummah considering the devastating earthquakes that took place in Turkey early this morning.

 

Turkey is very close to the heart of the Muslim Ummah as it was the capital of the Islamic Caliphate for many centuries. We know the great work that Turkey has done for the Muslim Ummah and especially the Haramain Shareefain. 

 

The epicentre of this earthquake was the city of Gaziantep. This city is very close to the Jamiat Ulama KZN, South Africa, as we have been working in this area since 2013 and presently as well in our Syrian Relief Projects.

 

Such good and noble work has taken place from this city giving relief to the Syrian refugees living therein, and at the border of Turkey and Syria and within Syria itself. 

 

Our hearts go out to the people of Gaziantep and to all our colleagues in Turkey particularly in this area. 

 

Everything is in the control of Allah Ta’ala. There are many lessons for us to take from what we have seen that these conditions can come about at any time, and we have absolutely no control over them whatsoever. 

 

May Allah Ta’ala remove their difficulty, ease the condition for those who have suffered injuries and grant them Shifa Kamila. May He grant forgiveness and high stages in Jannah to those who have passed away and may He make it easy for them to rebuild what has been destroyed, Ameen Yaa Rabbal Aalameen.
