houdallah 0 Posted January 21, 2009 Salam aleykum Im muslimah from Poland, married to Moroccan. The problem that we have is connected with my dad in law who lives with family in Morocco. Short time ago he had heart attack and alhamdulilllah he survived. But now he needs operation of heart that costs about 2000 euro. He doesnt have this money, financial situation there is very bad. Sometimes they dont have anything to eat and his children wear old clothes and shoes. Me and my husband cant help them because we have financial problems too. Now the most important is operation that will let my dad in law stay alive. We are very desperated and we dont know what to do thats why i wanted to ask if someone of u brothers and sisters knows maybe some Islamic community or organisation that we can ask for help so maybe we can collect some money or some other ideas that can be useful in this situation. I will be grateful for every answer. Jazak Allah khair Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luqman1984 0 Posted January 22, 2009 (edited) W/Salam, Have you asked in any of the local Masjids and communities moroco? If the situation is a dire as you describe it to be, I dont see why he wouldnt be eligible to accept zakaat... (but mind you I'm not a alim, and this needs to be clarrified by your local ummah leaders). One other point... (please dont take any offence by this) but 2000 Euros seems to be awfully cheap for a heart operation, for any major operation infact.. is this part state funded or are you able to go into a little more info on what type of condition he is suffering from? What type of operation does he require? Bypass, valve replacement.. etc? Edited January 22, 2009 by Luqman1984 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Salam Well Im not there in Morocco and i dont really know if there is possibility to ask help in local mosqs but sure Im gonna say this to dad to use this chance too. Yes, 2000 euro seems cheap but in Morocco its a lot of money - 2000 euro = 20000 dirhams. I think its partly paid by government and about kind of operation all i know that his veins are blocked and dont give enough blood to heart. Sorry for kind of description but for real i dont speak arabic and i cant communicate with family of my husband. All i can say is what my husband tells me about situation and i post it here. Jazak Allah khair for ur answer, Im gonna repeat what u said. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
