"They feed with food -despite their own desire for it- the indigent and the orphan and the captive (saying): ‘We feed you purely for the sake of Allah. We desire no reward from you, nor thankfulness.", Holy Quran, Chapter Al-Insaan, Verse 8-9
We list ISF's social services projects above, only to remind each other about the noble Islamic principle, which is illustrated in the above verses from the Holy Quran. Insha Allah, we hope these projects serve to motivate and encourage each of us to fulfill our responsibilities by participating in them. Please email the Social Services Committee to send your volunteer request or for more information.
The video highlights some of the activities and services that WE as an ISF community have come together to deliver over April-May 2020.
