Ramadan
Giving Day 13: Ilmfeed in Gaza
Ilmfeed
are currently raising funds for intensive care equipment for Gaza. Gaza’s
hospitals are under-resourced, and the Palestinian authorities have put an urgent
appeal out for help. Only 20 intensive care beds and equipment are available to
treat patients from a population of 1.8m people. Gaza’s health system was
already under severe pressure due to a lack of medical supplies and the
pandemic has only made the situation worse. As of 21st April 2020, there have
been a total of 346 Coronavirus cases in Palestine and the healthcare system
will collapse if the outbreak worsens.
The
Palestinian authorities say they need at least 100 ICU beds and equipment for
Gaza and Ilmfeed have partnered up with Islamic Relief to fund raise for 5 ICU
beds and other life-saving medical equipment.

Narrated
Ibn ‘Abbas: “The Prophet ṣallallāhu 'alayhi wa sallam (peace and blessings of
Allāh be upon him) was the most generous person, and he used to become more so
(generous) particularly in the month of Ramadan…more generous than the fast
wind in doing good” (Bukhari).
