Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh, Dear donors

My name is Saima Zaheeruddin, and I am a first-year BHMS student at Shri Mahalakshmi Mahila Homeopathic Medical College. I am writing with humility and hope to seek support for continuing my education.

The total college fee for this academic year is ₹1,45,000. With great difficulty, my parents have managed to pay ₹72,500, but the remaining ₹72,500 is still pending. Arranging this amount has become extremely challenging for my family.

My father works as an auto-rickshaw driver and is the only earning member of our family. His income is limited and uncertain, dependent on daily rides. We live in a rented house, and along with household expenses, my parents are also struggling to manage the education of all their children. My younger brother is currently studying in the 10th grade, and his academic needs add further pressure to our already fragile financial situation.

My parents have spent all their savings on our education, believing that education is the only path to a better and dignified future. Despite their sacrifices, they are now unable to cover my remaining college fees. Without timely support, my education is at risk of being discontinued.

I respectfully appeal to the generous donors of the Muslim community, especially through IndiaZakat, to please consider supporting my education. Your Zakat or Sadaqah can help me continue my studies and move closer to becoming a healthcare professional, In Sha Allah. This support will not only help me but will also uplift my entire family.

May Allah (SWT) reward you abundantly for every contribution and make it a source of ongoing charity (Sadaqah Jariyah). Jazakallahukhair
