A Call to Action
“And what will explain to you what the steep path is? It is to free a slave, or to feed on the day of hunger an orphan near of kin, or a needy person in misery, and—above all—to be one of those who have faith and urge each other to patience and urge each other to compassion. These are the people of the right.”
(Qur'an 90:12-19)
