900 Iftar Meals Provided at Al-Aqsa During Ramadan

???? More photos below… ????

JERUSALEM, PALESTINE May 19, 2022 — Baitulmaal, a Dallas-based international humanitarian nonprofit, recently provided 900 iftar meals to Palestinians breaking their fast at the Al-Aqsa mosque during Ramadan.

The iftar, or meal to break the fast, took place on Saturday, April 30 and Sunday, May 1, 2022, during the last ten nights of Ramadan. These days are considered to be the holiest days of the month. Muslims believe that feeding a fasting person is a virtuous act rewarded by God, and rewards are multiplied during the last ten nights of Ramadan.

According to Baitulmaal program manager Elizabeth Sohail, the overwhelming response by donors enabled the charity to provide iftar meals for a second night.

“We were humbled by the number of people wanting to provide a meal for Palestinians during Ramadan,” Sohail said. “It is a beautiful thing to see people wishing others well and supporting them during difficult times.”

Palestinians face increased harassment and raids on the Al-Aqsa mosque at the hands of occupation forces during the month of Ramadan. Similar intrusion on the mosque compound last year led to the bombardment of Gaza, which killed more than 250 people, including 66 children.

Baitulmaal has been on the ground in Palestine providing food, water, medicine, healthcare, and other humanitarian and emergency aid to the people of Palestine. If you would like to learn more or contribute to these programs at Baitulmaal, please visit their website at johnjanney.org/.

Baitulmaal is an international humanitarian nonprofit that provides life-saving, life-sustaining and life-enriching aid to people in need around the world. With headquarters in Dallas, Texas, the charity has offices and representatives in: Los Angeles, California; Chicago, Illinois; Detroit, Michigan; Nairobi, Kenya; Mogadishu, Somalia; Amman and Al Ramtha, Jordan; and Karachi, Pakistan.

???? More photos below… ????

IDLIB, SYRIA April 11, 2022 — Baitulmaal, a Dallas-based international humanitarian nonprofit, recently completed the distribution of food packages that provide 249,240 meals to internally displaced families in Northern Syria in time for the Ramadan season.

Approximately 670 families living in Idlib, Ma’arat Masrin and other areas in Northern Syria received the food packages. Contents included rice, flour, lentils, pasta, canned vegetables, dates and cooking oil. According to Baitulmaal program manager Elizabeth Sohail, the majority of food package recipients were women and children who recently settled in refugee camps in Northern Syria.

“It is increasingly difficult for these families to secure basic necessities now that food prices are soaring,” Sohail said. “They were incredibly grateful to receive items like cooking oil and rice which they might not have been able to purchase otherwise.”

The Syrian crisis has left more than 6.9 million Syrians internally displaced and another 5.1 million as refugees. An estimated 13.4 million people living within Syria – including those who are internally displaced – are in need of humanitarian assistance. The UN refugee agency calls it “the biggest humanitarian and refugee crisis of our time and a continuing cause for suffering.”

Baitulmaal delivered approximately 4 million meals to those in need around the world this past Ramadan. The charity has also been on the ground in Syria mobilizing aid after destructive storms, delivering food, digging wells, supporting orphans, helping students and distributing seasonal aid.
