Follow the Sunnah by Feeding the Needy
Milad with Minhaj
Rabi al-Awwal marks the blessed birth of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ — the symbol of mercy, generosity and love for the poor. This month, we honour his legacy through our #HelpFeed Campaign: a worldwide initiative providing warm meals, food parcels and essential support to hungry families. One meal, given with sincerity, can change a life.

Prophet Muhammad (صلى الله عليه وسلم), the symbol of mercy and forgiveness, was born in the blessed month of Rabi al-Awaal. His character, habits, and deeds serve as a timeless guide for humanity. Known for his love of the poor, immense generosity, support for the weak, and protection of the oppressed, there is no one better to follow in our mission to feed the needy and help them live dignified lives.
This Rabi al-Awaal, we honour his legacy through our #HelpFeed Campaign, a worldwide initiative aimed at achieving a hunger-free world.
Prophet (PBUH) said,
“The most excellent Sadaqah consists in your satisfying a hungry stomach.”

Hunger: A Deadly Threat
As we progress towards the 21st century, hunger remains the world's most significant health issue, and it's only getting worse.
9 million people die annually from hunger and hunger-related diseases—more than AIDS, Malaria, and Tuberculosis combined.
A child dies from hunger every 10 seconds.
Poor nutrition and hunger cause 3.1 million child deaths each year.
Economic downturns, joblessness, and global disparity exacerbate the hunger crisis. Food waste is increasing, yet plates remain empty.
Humanitarian Food Aid
We provide lifesaving resources to millions across the globe experiencing severe hunger, including refugees, internally displaced people such as Syrian and Palestinian refugees, as well as victims of floods and other natural disasters. Through community kitchens, food vouchers, food baskets, and other food distribution initiatives, we deliver and distribute meals and vital food supplies directly to affected individuals and families.
