SHAYKH 'UBAYD ENCOURAGES THE SALAFEES OF UK TO SET UP A CENTRAL FUND TO BENEFIT THE DA'WAH


Bismillahi was-salaatu was-salaam 'alaa rasoolillah wa ba'ad

Assalaamu aleikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu.

Our brother Abdulilah Lahmami asked Shaykh 'Ubayd on our behalf, whether setting up a central fund in the UK was a good thing and the Shaykh said, yes it was a good thing, as long as we do not stipulate that a specific amount must be given by each individual, as some may not be able to afford it.

The central fund would be used to help fund projects nationwide (publishing translated talks of the scholars, covering costs for inviting the scholars to UK, publishing free literature etc.) and inshallah if we are successful in achieving this goal, then long-term bi-idhnillah we could be in a position to help set up salafi centres across the UK and purchase a printing machine, enabling us to publish our own literature inshallah.

The brothers responsible for this initiative for the moment will be(SPubs), Rayhaan and Shiraz (Markaz Mu'aadh Ibn Jabal).

I know this may sound very ambitious and most will look at this suggestion with scepticism, but really and truly this is not difficult to achieve if we work together for the sake of Allaah. I have illustrated a few possible options that we could use and this is obviously very much at the initial stages and inshallah at the next meeting of salafi representatives from each town/city we can discuss further.

Option 1 - If each salafi (adult male and female) were to contribute £50 a year to this central fund (assuming we have an adult salafi population of between 1000 and 1500 this would generate £50k to £75k a year inshallah).

Option 2 - If each salafi family donates £100 a year (very similar to Option 1).

Option 3 - Each town or city donates as a group £1000 to £3000 a year, depending on the size of the community in each area.

We realise that some will be able to give more and others less, the £50 figure was just used to illustrate what can be done with a modest amount if we all work together and the figures mentioned are not fixed amounts as per the advice of Shaykh 'Ubayd al-Jaabiree.

We see the groups of misguidance working day and night to establish their bankrupt da'wah, so where are the people of haqq? Why do the salafees struggle to keep even a small centre running and in most areas we don't even have a centre, wAllaahu musta'an.  

So please let's not just read this post to pass time and let's make a concerted effort and try to get this central fund going and inshallah we will see the positive effects this has on the da'wah, there are very few of us, so let's work together and achieve this very modest goal.

If we could ask the brothers running the da'wah in their respective areas and those that have access to salafees in their town to guage the interest and email the responses to ukcentralfund@yahoo.com and we shall take it from there inshallah.

Although, this is at a very early stage, the central fund will be overlooked and advice will be sought from Shaykh 'Ubayd al-Jaabiree in Madinah and will be run jointly by Salafi Publications, Birmingham and Markaz Mu'aadh Ibn Jabal, Slough inshallah.

Further information will be provided once we get an idea of the interest for which we are very hopeful. In the mean time if you have any questions, please email ukcentralfund@yahoo.com

May Allaah increase your wealth and open our hearts to giving sadaqah.


Wassalaamu aleikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu.
