Guided Hearts – October

Guided Hearts: October Session

Al Huda Institute’s Guided Hearts is a monthly program that aims to serve our sisters who are new to Islam. We currently host monthly gatherings to help connect people from all walks of life who, at some point, chose to revert to Islam.

This Serving Humanity initiative is intended to bring support to New Muslims and Revert Veterans through social networking and reflection sessions.

If you’re a revert or have recently started your journey towards the Islamic faith, we invite you to join us on Saturday, October 31st at 2:00 pm – 2:45 pm and connect with our community.

Please Note: Due to Covid-19, our sessions are now resuming online. Sign up below, and you’ll be sent a zoom link via email.

Contact serving.humanity@alhudainstitute.ca for any further assistance.

WINTER CARE DRIVE

Give the Gift of Warmth to someone in need!

With winter now approaching, many individuals and families in our local community will not have the ability to purchase warm winter gear. The year 2020 has brought forth difficulties for many people due to Covid-19 so the need is especially strong this year. This is why Serving Humanity, in its annual Winter Care Drive has launched this year with the upgraded goal of helping 450 individuals with winter care kits.

“Whoever helps ease one in difficulty, Allah will make it easy for him in this world and in the Hereafter.” [Sahih Muslim]

You can be a part of easing the difficulties of others today so that Allah eases your difficulties in this world and in the Hereafter. Support our campaign by making a donation and helping us purchase items for a Winter Care Kit. A standard Winter Care Kit can include winter coats, accessories, and/or hygiene products which will be distributed locally amongst Muslims and Non-Muslims in need within the GTA. You can donate for a Winter Care Kit that costs approximately $40, or any amount.

Please note that due to Covid-19, this year we will be collecting monetary donations and distributing new coats only to ensure the health and safety of our recipients. For any further inquiries related to the campaign please email serving.humanity@alhudainstitute.ca.

Please note that this drive has completed. JazakAllahu Khairan Katheera to everyone who contributed.
