The President of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat Malta Laiq Ahmed Atif distributed fruit hampers to families and single women living at Hal Far Refugee Camp as part of the Muslim celebration of Eid-ul-Fitr festival.

“Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat is always committed to helping those who are in need irrespective of their faith, creed, nationality or politics, based on the philosophy of ‘humanity first’ and ‘love for all hatred for none’,” Atif said.

In a statement today, Atif said that the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jamaat organizes charity events for vulnerable people all year round particularly prior to the celebration of Eid festival towards the end of Ramadan.

“Ramadan is a month of sacrifices, self purification and fasting which not only fosters discipline, strength and increased focus on worship. It also inspires sympathy for the hungry and poor, encouraging Muslims to donate generously to those in most need,” Atif said.
