View Full Version : URGENT! Vote for the JIMAS Community Centre Project.

:salamext:

A Muslim organisation - JIMAS - are competing to win £5000 which they will use to fund their Community Centre Project. Right now, they're in second place and are over 50 votes behind. But voting closes in less than 11 hours time from now.

So what I need YOU to do is this:

1. Go to this link and vote for them: http://www.co-operative.coop/join-th...entre-project/. You might be required to sign up but it shouldn't take more than a couple of minutes inshaAllah.

2. Get at least one other person such as a friend/family member to vote for them as well.

Please don't just ignore this! It's a good deed inshaAllah and the votes are really close. This is our chance to show whether we can demonstrate real collectivism and unity when we need to. Or are we all talk and no action?

The other group who JIMAS are competing with appear to be doing some sort of last minute push because their votes appear to be going up by the minute! So right now, YOUR vote could not be more crucial. Do it for the Ummah!

If you're voting, leave a reply in this thread. :)

Now more than 60 votes behind. Wake up Ummah! This is your time to shine.

Share this on your Facebook's, twitters, whatever! Because of you, a Muslim organisation could receive £5000 for khayr. Imagine the kind of reward you could get for that.

Share the Khayr, folks!

Grandma, Grandpa, dont worry their poor ears trying to explain to them what its all abt. They need the good deeds, and Jimas needs their vote.

So register their names and press the button!

That is what I'm doing. Asked my family if I can vote on their behalf and they said yes.

That goes without saying. Btw Allaah knows best which charity is the most deserving of this £5000. We should try, but the rest we must leave to Allaah and His infinite Knowledge and Wisdom.

Imagine if the people had also donated £1.52p with every vote they made, Jimas would have earned more than £10,000.
