Since 7th October 2023, Gaza has faced unprecedented violence and attacks, leading to the death of over 20,000 people, half of whom are babies and children. Over 1 million people have been displaced from their homes, and are living in tents and with flimsy, temporary shelters. Thousands of people are still trapped under the rubble of their homes and buildings, potentially increasing the death toll even more.
There is a severe shortage of food, clean water and fuel. Hospitals and schools have been attacked, leaving people without adequate healthcare or medicines. Increased rainfall during winter is putting millions at even greater risk, as disease spreads among the densely populated areas of the Gaza strip.
Alhamdulillah, Al Mustafa Pakistan has been working in Palestine since 2014, and during this recent war, have been able to provide vital aid to the people of Gaza. We work closely with the Egyptian Red Crescent and the Jordan Hashemite Charity Organization, which enables us to get aid directly to those in Gaza.

This Ramadan, as the war on Gaza continues for over six months, almost 2 million people face severe hunger, displacement, and a lack of healthcare. People are beginning to die from starvation, so the need for food right now has reached desperate levels.
Our partner teams are on the ground are delivering cooked meals for Iftaar & Suhoor as well as urgent Ramadan Food Packs into Gaza to feed those in desperate need throughout Ramadan.
Working with the Egyptian Red Crescent, our teams are cooking nutritious meals in our kitchen in Al Areesh in Egypt and delivering the freshly cooked meals into Gaza every day during the month of Ramadan - making sure families in Khan Younis, Gaza, have a wholesome meal for suhoor and iftar.
Our teams in Jordan are preparing palettes of Family Food Packs with essential food items in our warehouse in Zarqa through the Jordanian Hashemite Charity Organisation. Those then travel to the Kerem Abu Salim crossing, through to Gaza and are then transported further to those in need within Gaza.
Despite a robust blockade and restrictions, Al Mustafa Pakistan is working with agencies who have extensive experience and special permission to deliver aid into Gaza through the Rafah border. The Red Crescent have direct access to Gaza, with permission to access the area with trucks. The Royal Hashemite Trust are licensed to use their military planes to fly aid directly to the Rafah border, which will then enter Gaza through trucks.
Through our partnership we will be carrying out large scale distributions in Gaza, delivering vital aid to hospitals & to the people of Gaza. With your donations and support, we will be delivering:
• Ambulances
• Priority Medical equipment such as ECG monitors, incubators, ventilators, stretchers, wheelchairs and Anaesthesia machines.
• Containers with mattresses, blankets, food parcels, hygiene kits and clothing
• Medical supplies, including medicines, antiseptics and cleaning solutions
It is the third holiest site for Muslims after the sacred mosques in Makkah and Madinah. The destination and ascension of our Prophet’s (pbuh) Night Journey, Al Isra W’al Miraj. Sadly, since 2014, Masjid Al-Aqsa and the communities entrusted with looking after it have become increasingly vulnerable and at huge risk. As well as increased raids and attacks, these communities are facing increased hardships with the cost of daily living and need your on-going support.
Donate now to help preserve, support and sustain the communities which protect and keep this masjid filled with the daily recitation of the Holy Qur’an. Your donation will help bring thousands of worshippers come together to perform a khatam of the Holy Qur’an in the blessed masjid. Each khatam is offered with a duaa to keep Al-Aqsa safe. Our Waqf will also help support local communities in accessing Zakat funds for their homes, livelihoods and futures.
Help us to keep our blessed roots strong and the communities grow, united and thriving. Join our #BlessedRoots Campaign!
