Donate!

NIMFA (Northern Ireland Muslim Family Association) is running only with Allah’s help then your support.

We invite you to donate generously to mantain and to develop NIMFA for ourselves, our families, and our children: Our precious future generation.

We launched this donation campaign on the first of Ramadan 1431.

If we collect a reasonable sum of money, we’ll try to buy the current NIMFA site (Rugby Road) or an alternative new site.

If the amount collected is not enough to do this, we’ll use the money to mantain the current site.

Pay by cash, cheque, or directly to NIMFA project bank account at HSBC 2004053 (sort code 40-20-55).


Jazakum Allah Khair,
Your NIMFA committee

Dear brothers & sisters
ALSALAM Alaikum & Ramadan Mubarak

Just to update you about our committee meeting last Friday 6/8/10 .
Unfortunately only myself and brother wasif attended . Brother Suliman joined by the end of the meeting( a lot of members are aborad or had work commitments ) .

We agreed to launch the campaign by early Ramadan as an opportunity for more donations and more reward ( although we appreciate the current priority to donate as well to Pakistan flood catastrophy ) .

We agreed to prepare a printed material ( leaflet , poster , flyer ) and to be attractive enough as a lot of donation requests are expected at the same time .

Please have a look to the attached leaflet :

It is designed as a double face leaflet : one side is a cheque format with attraction to get reward of a million pound donation even if you just pay a little . The other side is a short letter to explain frankly about possible senarios for the use of the donations and how to donate.

The banknote of million pound is not part of the leaflet but can be used as sticker on the donation boxes which we have already perchuased with multiple sizes ( small for coins , larger for 5 & 10 pounds and larger for 20 pounds and more to attract kids to donate pennies and coins and to leave a chance for every single person to take part with whatever he/she can .

Last night a bother donated already 1000 pounds to the campaign and 100 pounds to the Pakistan floods ( May ALLAH reward him ) .
We need your help to circulate E-mails and text messages ( who can help in that ?) : I suggest to use the non-cheque side of the leaflet for that .
I’ll speak to Sheikh Muhammed today to mention the campaign in his Friday Khutba which can be all on donation and charity if he agrees .
We can give a daily reminder during Ramadan Tarawih ( Qyam ) prayer as well .
Wasif will speak to brothers Jaweed and Saleem for agreement to issue receipts for those who wish to get one ( I suggest it to be signed by either Jaweed , Wasif or myself as the bank account nominees or by Saleem as NIMFA treasurer ) .
I am still preparing a letter to several TV channels to try to get the campaign as part of their programs ( Islam Channel , Al-Hiwar – Iqra – AlResalah – Aljazeerah ) : can you help in that ?

I know Muhamed Tuhamy is abroad but back this weekend inshALLAH : so that the web site can play a role as well to support the campaign .

I wonder if we can also  E-mail few Muslim Organisations ( MCB- MAB- ,etc,,,& Muslim Directory ) and perhaps Dr Mamoun can have further bodies to contact in Qatar .Again I need help with suggested letter formats .

E-mail your thoughts and comments especially about the leaflet as we need to get it ready before Friday prayer .

I think Ramadan is just a start but not an end . I think we need at least a year for the campaign before assessing success or failure ( success inshALLAH ! ) , any thoughts ?

Do not forget us in your doa ,

New Executive Committee

Dear members and friends of NIMFA,

Assalamu Alaikum
I pray to Allah SWT that you are all well, in good health and Iman. I am pleased to say that yesterday on the 3rd of May 2009; we had our AGM for 2009, at NIMFA. The meeting was chaired by Dr Omar Farouki, Trustee, and the AGM was very positive and brotherly, with the highest level of responsibility from all attended.

The meeting started with Quran recitation by Br Ahmad Helmi. There were various reports; the chairman’s by Br Mamoun, treasurer’s by Br Saleem, Hikmah School’s by Br Raeid.

The amendments to the constitution were presented by Br Javaid, and all amendments were passed anonymously by the meeting.
The new Executive Committee was appointed by the Trustees attending, and approved anonymously by the AGM.

The new Executive Committee for 2009-2011 is as follow:

Chairman: Br Javaid Naveed
V. Chairman: Br Ihsan Abbas
Treasurer: Br Saleem Tareen
Secretary: Br Tareq Jaber
Members: Sr Shatha Mahdi
Sr Khadija Farouki
Sr Nevine Boussiely
Br Sami Farrag
Br Louay Magged
Br Mamoun Mobayed

Imam of NIMFA: Shaikh Muhammad Abu Shabbana (currently on holiday visiting his family in Egypt)
Fundraising Officer: Br Ashraf Aly
Executives: Chairman Javaid Naveed, V.Chair: Ihsan Abbas, Secretary: Tareq Jaber, Treasurer: Saleem Tareen, Mrs. Shatha Mahdi, Mrs. Khadija Farouki, Mrs Nevine Boussiely. Sami Farrag, Louay Magged, Mamoun Mobayed.

There were other excellent nominations for the Executive, and according to the constitution, the new Executive could co-opt other members in due
time.

I would like here, as the outgoing chairman of NIMFA, to thank Allah SWT for His guidance and help, and to thank all brothers, sisters and young Muslims for their huge contribution during my term in office for the past four years. A special thanks to all members of the previous Executive, and to the Trustees of NIMFA for their on going support.

I also ask Allah SWT to give the new Executive Committee, and its Chairman Br Javaid, all the guidance and support to continue looking after the affaires of the Muslim families living in Northern Ireland.

We pray to Allah SWT that our life as a Muslim community in Northern Ireland will continue to move forward from division to harmony and from strength to strength.

Wassalam

Yours truly,
Mamoun Mobayed
