💙 In Afghanistan, Islamic Relief is supporting families with cash distributions, helping them start income-generating activities, and strengthen livelihoods. Priority is given to vulnerable groups, who can then improve their socio-economic-well-being🤲🏽. 🔗 iruk.co/afghanistan

🚨 In #Gaza, one person is killed every 12 minutes. Since late-June, Israel’s new militarised food distribution system has turned aid lines into death traps, with almost daily attacks on starving Palestinians. 🔗 Full press release: www.islamic-relief.org.uk/one-person-k...

📢 PSA: If you’re planning to fast for ‘Ashura, the recommended days begin from tomorrow! Scholars encourage fasting on the 9th and 10th of #Muharram, with some also recommending the 11th too. ✨ Whichever days you choose to fast, we pray that He accepts it from you – ameen! 🤲🏼

Welcome, 1447 AH! ✨ Our Hijri calendar symbolises an incredibly powerful turning point in our history, marking the years since the Prophet’s ﷺ courageous migration from Makkah to Madinah. As the month of #Muharram begins, we ask Allah for a year of sincerity and steadiness, whatever it brings. 💙

💫 #Eid al-Adha Mubarak from all of us at Islamic Relief UK! Wishing you and your loved ones a beautiful day filled with joy, connection, and countless blessings. 💙 May Allah SWT accept your sacrifices, your duaas, and your good deeds, ameen! 🤲🏽

📢 PSA: If you’re intending to offer #Qurbani, today’s the last day you can cut your hair and nails! ✂️ 🌑 “When the new moon of #DhulHijjah appears, and one of you desires that he offer a sacrifice, then he should abstain from cutting his hair and his nails.” — Prophet Muhammad ﷺ

Brilliant to be at the @bondngo.bsky.social @tearfund.bsky.social @islamicreliefuk.bsky.social Faith & Development event today. It was a particular treat to listen to such an incredible all-female, multifaith panel of int dev experts - smashed whatever the Bechdel test of policy discussion is!

Powerful & moving testimony at @parliament.scot CPG on #InternationalDevelopment, hearing updates from @decscotland.bsky.social on #Myanmar, @islamicreliefuk.bsky.social on #Sudan, @actionforhumanity.bsky.social on #Gaza & @thehalotrust.bsky.social on #Ukraine - intdevalliance.scot/news-view/cr...

🔴 #GAZA The UK government’s decision to suspend new trade negotiations with Israel is welcome, but it must go further by immediately suspending all arms sales and ending its complicity in this horror. Any delays will be measured in Palestinian lives.

🚨 #GAZA Palestinians are being systematically starved, bombed, and displaced with impunity. Allowing a few trucks to trickle in only shows how tightly Israel controls the tap, and how the world continues to let it happen. 🔗 Full statement: www.islamic-relief.org.uk/islamic-reli...

🔴 Today marks 77 years since the #Nakba that forced hundreds of thousands of Palestinians from their beloved homeland. We remember not just what was lost, but what refuses to be erased. #Gaza belongs to the Palestinian people. 🕊️ Artwork: @/linajaradat_ on IG

🔴 No aid has entered #Gaza for over two months – and now, children are starving to death. Children. The Israeli government has repeatedly stated its aim to starve Palestinians, and force them out of Gaza. What more will it take for international governments to act? 💔

🚨 #Gaza has been under siege for 573 days, and nearly two months of total closure have had a devastating effect on Palestinians. We need a ceasefire, and we need it NOW.

🚨 Israel’s use of starvation as a weapon of war has pushed #Gaza to breaking point. The situation is now the worst we've ever seen there, with children going days without food – and the international community’s lack of action makes them complicit.

🔴 Since October 2023, your generosity has provided psychosocial support to over 100,533 children in #Gaza – alhamdulillah! 🙌🏽 Our teams have also distributed essential food packs, warm meals, hygiene kits, clothing, medical supplies, and more. 💙 🍉 iruk.co/palestine

✨ Your generosity has brought smiles to children’s faces in #Malawi, where they got to pick their very own #Eid gifts! 🎁 For orphaned children, receiving a gift is more than a celebration – it’s a spark of hope for a brighter future. 💙

🔴 This April marks two years of the brutal conflict that has been ripping its way through #Sudan. Largely ignored by the international community, the war has officially taken over 28,700 lives – but the real number is likely to be far, far higher. 💔

🚨 Two years into #Sudan’s brutal war, the humanitarian catastrophe has engulfed the entire country – and it shows no signs of ending. The UK government MUST step up and work with others to secure a ceasefire. 📝 Sign the petition now: iruk.co/signforsudan

Some big smiles and even bigger hearts this #Eid! 🌎🌟 Thanks to your support, children around the world unwrapped joy with their Eid gifts earlier this month. From #Yemen to #Albania, you made their day magical – alhamdulillah. 💙🤲🏼

🔴 A devastating 7.7 magnitude earthquake struck #Myanmar this morning, killing 144 people, and injuring hundreds, with numbers rising by the hour. Islamic Relief teams are preparing to respond by assessing needs and access to affected areas. 🔗 www.islamic-relief.org.uk/giving/appea...
