More than 50 people died and 700 were injured in four explosions in London on Thursday 7 July. The Mayor of London has established the London Bombings Relief Charitable Fund, in association with the British Red Cross.

The money raised by this charity will be used to assist the victims of the attacks, their families and dependants and to support any other projects that its Trustees consider appropriate.

The London Bombings Relief Charitable Fund is concentrating on asking the public and businesses to give donations generously at this time of immense grief and suffering among the victims and their families. It is therefore not agreeing other fundraising proposals such as auctions, sale of products and events such as concerts at this time.

You got to be joking, i think i will give my money to people who really need it. People like who don;t have food to eat, medication and shelter.

[Khadhijah]

I'd like to see you post donations for the thousands upon thousands of muslims in Iraq, Filisteen, Sheeshan, Kashmir and everywhere else that are being killed and raped and sodomised...

[Arsalan]

Good idea, it should prevent them ( at least ) from moving into the shanty towns on the outskirts of london. poor souls , may their loved ones reast in peace.

[Al-Nasser]

VERY ridicuolous!!

Relief Charitable Fund for a whole 50 deaths!!!!??.....600 Muslim killed in Fallujah in April 2004 women and children leaving behind thousands of mourning familes and you didn't utter a WORD and now your charity urge kick on??.....where did that urge go when 100s of Muslims getting killed by the Amerikkans!?

[Arsalan]

Hey Naz , ma sure sis MC has a private fund for the mujhaideen and their families, I mean if you can help the London relief fund then why not your brothers and sisters ? :)

[annieg]

I'm pretty sure that Muslims were victims in London.

May Allah (swt) protect us all.

Shahera Islam's funeral was today (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/london/4686989.stm):

Slimane Ihab

The 24-year-old French-Tunisian student was working as a waiter in Piccadilly Circus. Mr Ihab, a Muslim from Lyon, had been in London only a few weeks. His friend, Xavier Rebergue, said that no one had heard from him since the blast. 'His father is flying in from Paris,' said Mr Rebergue.

Shahera Akther Islam

A devout Muslim, 20-year-old Shahera Akther Islam had a dental appointment before going to work at the Co-operative Bank. She has not been heard from since she tried to call her uncle at 9.45am that morning. Her family fear that she was caught up in the bombing of a Circle line train near Aldgate station.

Shame the hundreds of thousands of other Muslims that get killed in bomb explosions don't get articles on the Beeb. I'm sure you'd be the first to post them up on ummah sis.

[Al-Nasser]

may Allah forgive their souls......alhamdulilah no Hijabis were hurt in the blast

Correction: post them REPEATEDLY in different threads across the forum.

Yes it does, so help people WITHIN your family. Start with Islam within your family and so on. DAWAH~

We spend so much time on the 'net we neglect ourselves and our families when they need more of our time and they have top priority. This is just a forum!!

We need to save our family from the fire.

I hope you understand why i find this kinda ridiculous, :ahb: is it just me that gets really peeved off reading these type of threads? :mad:

Have you never read a story from Palestine and cried at the brutal ways the zionist pigs hurt our brothers and sisters. Are you not Muslim? :crying:

Are we not one Ummah and we should all feel each other's pain, yes so some Muslims died, but we have the government here they compensate these people. we are one ummah, one body feeling each other's pain and anguish.

How about those people in Palestine? Ok so you might think she's only supporting Muslims, lets take the Africa example, seeing the starvation, devastation and hurt there makes one want to help, have you ever set up a link for them and put them in the limelight like you have for london bombers, yes they should get some publicity but enough is enough. Why on and on till it becomes as scratched record?

:salams

[Makki]

mariam what happened in london was terrible, terrible things happen across the globe on a daily basis, and the fact that you ignore those people unless they die or are killed in the west is something i cant understand. please explain because i want to know what is going through your head when you post these articles.

Anyway, apparently the donations have reached £4.5 million (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/4692307.stm)! :rubeyes:

Nine days after the memorial fund was set up, about £3.5m has been collected from firms and people - the government donated a further £1m on Monday.

Donations have been collected at Tube stations, shops, banks, post offices and by phone, post and the internet.

All those ridiculous people donating their rubbish funds.

:rolleyes:

[Khuzamah]

I just don't understand exactly what we need the money for?? because it's not like the whole country has gone into a turmoil etc like with the tsunami relief was so much rebuidling etc so understandable... but what is the 4.5 million for?? I think it is only really the Picadilly line which is major damaged right and surely won't cost that much??
If they are gna give it to the families I dnt really understand that either... so much money jst for that??? and how will it really help them... yes their family member has died, but money wont change that. It is not as if they are needing for food, clothes etc etc...
I'm just slightly confused that is all... I'm sure they had good intentions with this appeal, but I'm sure the money could go to some place more deserving. I mean... I am a Londoner myself right now, but I still don't get this... London as a whole has hardly been effected and is running as normal?

[Voyager]

that is a joke, i hope anyone with sense suggests that the money gets sent to a cause worthwhile

unless they're planning to buy train coaches they might aswell send the money to Africa, Blair can make up for what Bush didn't give

[annieg]

It will help the victims and their familes with any immediate needs and any long term needs.

The amount donated is commiserate with the realization by the donors that even if their own lives are able to go on as before, for the victims the bombing will have long term, and possibly life long consequences.

Not unlike when Saddam used to donate to a suicide bomber's family?

its for those who will be in finnacial straights having lost the main earner of the family
ie...like the girl in afghanistan whose brother was killed..he was a student who worked at night in a pizza place and sent money back for her to live on
its als to help those who need finnance to take the bodies of loved ones home..some overseas
its for those maimed by the blasts who will need special aids or houses altered to accomadate their injuries...thats what its for
its not for the re building of the tube or trains..that will be paid out of the tax payers purse ie,,you and me will foot the bill

[mouse]

lol...... i would have thought the victims were a worth while cause

[Guardian Hijab]

lol...... i would have thought the victims were a worth while cause
yep they sure are

but when you compare someone who has a job, a home, food, and a stable government

to....

a pregnant mother with Aids, who lost her husband to the disease, who has children who will die in the next few days from starvation, and only a few bucks can give her and her children food, save them from STARVING to DEATH, as well as save the unborn child from getting aids

Issues take priority over other issues, deal with it
