I will obtain this sum and I am not worried. Additionally, I need thirty doctors immediately as well as additional teachers. I am not worried about whether volunteers will be available. This is Allah’s desire that this work be performed. What I worry about and what you should worry about is that to offer the sacrifice of wealth is of no significance until it is accepted by God. Therefore, you should pray and I shall also pray, that this humble offering is recognised and accepted by Allah. ” (Hayat-e-Nasir page 40 volume 1) Splendid Example of Sincere Jama’at Members It is by the special Grace of God that instead of the 100,000 Pounds asked by Huzur rh , sincere members of the Jama’at, urged on by angels, laid 250,000 Pounds at the feet of Huzur rh. The great work carried out with these funds bears no proportion to it. In the same manner, increasing numbers of doctors and teachers volunteered and are continuing to volunteer their services. Some of them are sent to Africa on ‘Waqf-e-Arzi’ while others have dedicated their entire lives for the service of faith.
