• Mutual Aid For Palestinians & Sudanese in Egypt

  🎙Just dropped a powerful episode with @jessicaelgamil who spent 6 months on the ground in Egypt, where she supported mutual aid efforts for Palestinians and Sudanese people. This was recorded months ago in an effort to put it in series, but I am so behind schedule now and couldn't wait longer for it to go out. I know I've been gone for upwards of 6 weeks, and you can find out why by tuning in. Prayers welcome for my mother's speedy recovery and cure! 📿🎧Hear about the differences in status and why they matter in resource distribution, and the intentions and barriers displaced people face as a result. Find out what both exploitation and generosity look like in local Egypt, and how mutual aid networks can do their work by avoiding red tape 🔴and just GETTING IT DONE.Jessica shares lessons from the frontlines and what it takes to make mutual aid sustainable and rooted in care, not charity. This convo is a must-listen for anyone trying to do more than repost. Tune in at 6pm EST and share this episode with a friend who wants TO DO something to subvert genocide and displacement, and contact Jessica today!Links:1.

• Canceling Cancer in Afghanistan with Wellness Worldwide for Sustainable Communities

  🌏Dr. Meena Said discusses the work of her nonprofit, Wellness Worldwide, this week. It provides international tertiary care coordination for terminally ill Afghan children, forgotten by the world along with their nation. "Coordinate" because these kids cannot be treated IN Afghanistan as there is no pediatric cancer center there. Find out why on this episode.⚕️Not only does @wellnessworldwide_ serve dying children, but its field clinic serves a population of 35,000 internally displaced Afghans, mostly women and children, with primary care and surgical follow up, labs and medication. It is also a referral source for the terminally ill children they help coordinate care for. ❤️If you have zakat or sadaqa allocated to Gaza, as you should, please also consider the nonprofits, orgs, and people coming on the podcast this month on our series who work quietly in service of Allah's most ignored creation and causes. This Ramadan may be one of our tightest yet, but if it doesn't hurt to give, we haven't given enough. It's the least we can do as we sit in the comforts of the West that we still have.🎧Tune in at 6pm to learn more and share this episode with someone who can help Meena meet her short and longterm goals for her kids, and to donate to Wellness Worldwide for Sustainable Communities.Links:1.

• SERIES: Organizations That Increase Khair: Addressing a Need with Elevate Adolescence Programs

  Our Series this month is "Organizations That Increase Khair," and we kick it off with Sana Imad of Elevate Adolescence. She's written a curriculum for a character education program designed to help tweens and teens build confidence and reach maturity in a developmentally appropriate way, both spiritually and psychologically. Rooted in Islamic principles and the sage example of Imam Ghazali, the program integrates timeless values like integrity, compassion, and self-discipline into practical life skills.  Through @girlsrisingstrong and @boys.breakingthru, parents and children can achieve deep understanding and connection. One of my favorite pearls from this episode had to be, "It isn't easy, but it gets easiER."  Practice makes perfect, y'all, but we have to be willing to take the first step.Learn more about these programs and how you can bring them to your kitchen tables. Tune in at 6pm EST and share this episode with another mom and maybe with a masjid board member who may find it easier to establish a youth group with a curriculum and support systems ready to go.Links:1.
