Ark Relief: Syria's Ongoing Crisis

What began as a decade-long war was compounded by a devastating earthquake in February 2023. For over ten years, millions of Syrians have known no comfort. Once vibrant towns and cities have become desolate ghost zones. This conflict has claimed nearly half a million lives and left millions struggling for survival in refugee camps throughout Turkey and the Middle East. At Ark Relief, we are actively working in many of these camps, providing lifesaving food and financial assistance to help families rebuild their lives.

When considering your donation, remember that over 13 million Syrians are displaced and rely solely on the support of compassionate individuals like us to escape their dire circumstances. We must persist in our efforts to help them rebuild their lives. Insha’Allah, in the coming years, they will return to their homes, restore their communities, and, most importantly, reclaim their lives. We ask Allah to support our Syrian brothers and sisters facing these hardships.

13 Million Syrians Await Our Support

A man-made crisis has pushed this beautiful country and its people to the edge. The magnitude of this crisis is unimaginable, and visiting these camps reveals why organizations like Ark Relief urgently seek donations to assist Syrians in need. These 13 million individuals require food assistance every month. Alhamdulillah, with Allah’s help and your generous contributions, we are able to regularly distribute food in these camps. However, the challenges are escalating. As the population grows and conditions worsen, many men are losing their lives, leaving behind widowed wives and orphaned children.

You can make a difference by sponsoring a widow or an orphan, bringing much-needed stability to their lives. Donate generously to the Syria Emergency Appeal and offer the gift of hope to the people of Syria.

Help Syrians and Earn Allah’s Pleasure

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “Whoever would love to be shaded in the shade of Allah, let him help someone in hardship or waive a loan.

Unsure About Donating to the Syria Crisis Appeal? Consider This:

Imagine facing each day with the uncertainty of not having enough to eat. This is the harsh reality for over 13 million Syrians. Daily meals, a fundamental necessity, have become a luxury that many cannot afford. We must ask ourselves: will we continue to witness the suffering of our Syrian brothers and sisters, or will we take action?

Let’s come together to first make dua for the people of Syria and then donate from our halal earnings as generously as we can.

£40 can provide a family with food for a month.

£25 can feed 10 people with freshly cooked hot meals.

£100 can offer financial support to a family, helping to restore a sense of normalcy in their lives.

 Ark Relief: On the Ground in Syrian Refugee Camps

Since the beginning of the Syrian conflict, Ark Relief has been actively present on the ground. Over the years, we have distributed thousands of food packs and tens of thousands of hot meals, while also supporting hundreds of widows and orphans through our Sponsor a Widow and Sponsor an Orphan programs. By donating to the Syria Emergency Appeal, you can help save lives. Together, we can make a significant impact, protect, and transform lives.

Arkrelief – Alleviating Poverty Together

We are a UK-based international relief and development charity committed to making a difference. Guided by Islamic principles of empathy, generosity, and selflessness, our mission is to alleviate poverty and suffering around the globe. We adhere to a 100% Zakat Policy, ensuring that every penny of your Zakat goes directly to those impacted by poverty, conflict, and natural disasters.

Before contributing to our Food Appeal, Water Appeal, Syria Emergency Appeal, Yemen Emergency Appeal, Pakistan Floods Appeal, or any other Emergency Appeal, please remember to set your intention: first, donate for the sake of Allah, and second, to aid your fellow Muslim brothers and sisters. This intention is vital, as every act of worship should be performed with Allah’s pleasure in mind.

In addition to our emergency appeals, we are engaged in remarkable projects that aim, Insha’Allah, to bring prosperity to countless Muslim households worldwide. Your Sadaqah and Zakat can support initiatives such as Build a Masjid, Livelihoods for the Poor, Sponsor a Widow, Sponsor an Orphan, Sponsor a Nikah, Donate a Sewing Machine, and contribute to educational efforts like Sponsoring a Hafiz, Supporting a Child’s Education, or assisting young people in university and Islamic studies. Donate with confidence; Insha’Allah, every penny of your contribution is your Amanah, and we will strive to allocate it to those in need.

As Muslims, we celebrate two significant seasons each year: Ramadan and the first ten days of Dhul Hijjah. During these blessed times, we focus our efforts on pleasing Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى through good deeds. At Arkrelief, we provide a platform for you to fulfill an essential act of worship: charity. In Ramadan, you can participate in the Ramadan Food Appeal, Ramadan Zakat Appeal, Donate Your Fidyah, Donate Your Fitrana, and Pay Your Kaffarah for breaking an oath or fast, particularly during the sacred nights of Laylatul Qadr. In Dhul Hijjah, we assist you in fulfilling your obligation of performing Qurbani. Whatever cause you choose, do so with confidence, Insha’Allah.
