A few months back, we lent $1000 to sister T. The good news her health is better now. The bad news, she left Islam, may Allah guide her and keep all of us on the right path.
Well, at least we did provide help, Alhamdulillah.
Wulaikum asalaam,
Actually, my health has gotten beter in the past week or so. My doctor told me before that what I have may be temporary…and that it’s the result of arthritis after a virus. I was like, “huh???” But the past week and a half, I’ve been feeling about 90%! We did 7 blood tests and they were all negative. Thank G-d! That’s such good news!
Because of that, I can’t apply for disability of course. I’m just so happy to be feeling almost better. I have been exercising and feeling great afterwards.
It looks like I will have to pay you in installments. I will pay $500 by Sept. 1 and then the second part in the middle of October. I may be able to do the second payment sooner, we shall see. But mid October is when the second installment of financial aid occurs.
I should also let you know that I have gone back to being actively Jewish and let go of Islam. It’s not that I don’t think that Islam is beautiful, it’s simply not for me. I’m happy that I got to be part of it, even if for a little while.
Have a wonderfully introspective Ramadan and I will keep in touch.
Was-Salam,
T
Update Aug 24
Things are o.k. I just moved back up north. But still not settled in. We will see when the school monies come in! can finally get things done.
How’s your Ramadan going?
Once again, thank you for the assistance that you gave me when I was still in the Deen. My siblings gave, too and I owe you all, but you have priority. My housing co-op made me do a post dated check for them, so they’re going to get first dibs, then rent. I hope to have your half by next week, G-d willing. I also have a job interview for a nanny position, so send up a prayer for em to get that.
The diagnosis is FINALLY back and I have no auto-immune disorder! Thank G-d. I do have fibromyalgia, which is just a fancy word for chronic pain. Which still is annoying but at least my joints won’t be deteriorating. There’s a blessing in all things.
Ramadan mubarak!
T
