Madinah - The City of Refuge
Saturday 17 December 2016 ,[London, United Kingdom]
Venue or Event Address : The Atrium, 124 - 126 Cheshire Street, London, E2 6EJ
Driven out of their homes and persecuted for worshipping the One God, the Makkan Muslims crossed the harsh Arabian Desert and sought protection in the distant city of Madinah. They were welcomed there by the city’s compassionate residents and adopted into the community.
The Makkan Muslims were refugees. Our beloved Prophet ï·º was also a refugee.
Refugee crises continue across the Ummah today. The longest running refugee crisis in the world is that of the Palestinians. Their situation stands in stark contrast to that of the Makkan Muslims, who were welcomed into Madinah and given refuge, homes and rights.
We have much to learn from the compassion of those in Madinah who embraced the Prophet ï·º and his followers, and how we too can emulate this spirit of generosity and humanity to share with refugees across the globe.
Join us for an insightful and inspiring evening with respected speakers Dr. Uthman Lateef, Ustadh Asim Khan and Ibrahim Hewitt followed by a three course meal.
All proceeds will be donated to Interpal to provide vital humanitarian aid to Palestinian refugees across Palestine, Lebanon and Jordan.
