/ Fatima Abdullah / (pseudonym) is a Syrian student who took refuge in Türkiye after the war, studying in English literature at a Turkish university. Her father died in Türkiye as a result of a previous injury as a result of the regime’s air bombing. Her brother also died in Syria as a result of the bombing. Her mother does not work, and her brother works a simple job that barely supports himself. She is in dire need to covering her needs which will contribute to covering her living expenses so that she can continue her university studies. If she is unable to cover her expenses, she will be forced - God forbid - to leave the university.
The Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: “Whoever follows a path seeking knowledge, God will make easy for him a path to Paradise. Indeed, the angels lower their wings for the seeker of knowledge, satisfied with what he does, and the scholar is not He is forgiven by whoever is in the heavens and whoever is on the earth, even the fish in the water, and the excellence of the scholar over the worshiper. Like the superiority of the moon over all the other planets, )) Narrated by Abu Dawud and Al-Tirmidhi.
