The truth is, poverty is an unforgivable crime. My child is dying before my eyes because of poverty
If I had enough money,I could have saved his life
I see the world saving the lives of animals while my child, who is supposed to be human, will die without anyone saving www.muslimgiving.org/mohmed0

Naser is fighting for survival, and I’m heartbroken that I can't afford his life-saving treatment alone. No parent should watch their child suffer due to a lack of funds. Please, don't look away now. Your $10 is his miracle; your share is his breath.❤️🩹
