just a quick update alhumdulillah the hotlin has been running for the past week
we have been overwhelmed by callers due to calls just from student s of 1 university!!!! mny advisers r now doing overtime and for past 2 days the hotline has been 24 hour
we desperately need more advisors just to do the shifts 24 hours
i am not going to advertise the advice hotline now because basically we r getting to many calls and we have to wait for more advisors and a new system to handle multiple calls from 2 numbers
we were not prepared to recieve so many calls we were amazed by the number of young muslims in uk who r confused and in need of good advice ................

You do realise you could probably get a lottery grant to help you out with this?

to apply email ur c.v (resume) to ukmuslimadvice@googlemail.com
u will then have to do a quick quiz to test ur islamic knowledge and attitudes etc
at the moment many calls from young muslim sisters had to be turned down due to no female advisors available to give advice
we r now accepting applicants from abroad they must know english and have some knowledge of western life in uk ...etc age is sill 18-25 only

I wasn't suggesting he enter the Lottery :)
A certain amount of money is taken from the lottery procedes, and put into a fund for various charities.

Well still the same arc, it is forbidden, money profits from lottery is usury, this profit to be used in charity for us as muslims is not acceptable. I hope u understand my point. Whenever we want to start any buisness or work we must make sure it is clear from any usury fund. Same goes for Dawa', we do not start it with such kind of money that is not clean and 100% halal. By will of Allah, Suhail will be able to find a better resourse for money. :)
