رَبِّ أَوْزِعْنِي أَنْ أَشْكُرَ نِعْمَتَكَ الَّتِي أَنْعَمْتَ عَلَيَّ وَعَلَىٰ وَالِدَيَّ وَأَنْ أَعْمَلَ صَالِحًا تَرْضَاهُ وَأَصْلِحْ لِي فِي ذُرِّيَّتِي ۖ إِنِّي تُبْتُ إِلَيْكَ وَإِنِّي مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ

"My Lord, enable me to be grateful for Your favor which You have bestowed upon me and upon my parents and to work righteousness of which You will approve and make righteous for me my offspring. Indeed, I have repented to You, and indeed, I am of the Muslims."

Surah Al-Ahqaf (46:15)

40 is a milestone for Muslims and although we don’t celebrate birthdays generally, this one seems significant. Mariam doesn’t want any presents and says completing hajj is the biggest gift inshallah (please pray everything goes ahead as planned for the Hujjaj 🙏), but she would love if we all invest in our afterlife together, so let’s build this solar powered water well for all of us - the target cost is £2,700. Please contribute whatever you can no matter how small and share a birthday message as I know she will treasure these the most inshallah.

Thank you 🩷
