Help Haiti

After reading about what happened in Haiti I decided to read all about the country itself here and was astounded by the history of this place. If anything you would think it was cursed; earthquakes, hurricanes, embargos,slavery and genocide. You can donate here to Islamic Relief. May Allah guide them and protect them. Amin. My condolences go out to anyone there affected. Inna illaihi wa inna ilaihi rajiun.

    I have been contemplating sponsoring a child and had decided on Haiti...now -- I don't know that they'll even be able to do anything until the country's been cleared up a bit...so sad.

    Salaams:

    Here's an even more revealing look:

    I, too, was blown away reading about the history of Haiti.

    And the butt-hole Pat Robertson said on his TV show that the Haitians suffer because they made a pack with the devil to get rid of the French.

    Sigh ...

    Saffiyah I wonder if he said that because they used to practice voodoo. Not that it matters in this case.

    Heather I guess all you can do is send money to help with the earthquake now and then sponsor one poor soul in the future.
