Help Qasim lay Rashid to rest with dignity in Mecca
Qasim lost his husband suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $3,000.
🇸🇦 Mecca, Makkah, Saudi Arabia2,621 views
Rashid, my husband, passed away on 13 August after a short illness. He was 83 years old. He was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance.
The funeral home has given us a quote of $3,000 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 17 August.
I have already used what I had for the hospital bills. My family is scattered, and many of us are out of work. We want Rashid to have a dignified farewell.
Any help at all means a lot, and so do your prayers.
Anything left over after the funeral will be donated to a neighborhood youth program.
Where the $3,000 goes:
• Funeral home services and casket: $1,600
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $930
• Transport of the deceased: $290
• Memorial gathering for the family: $180
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Praying for you, Qasim. It takes guts to ask. Well done. God bless
Stay strong, Qasim. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Narayanganj so I could bring a meal. All the best.
Sending love. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Mecca.
take care, Qasim. This could happen to any of us. It's not much but it's yours. Greetings from London.
Wishing you the best. Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Alcalá de Henares but we're thinking of you. God bless.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Gdynia
you're not alone, Qasim. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Mecca
So sorry you're going through this. Looking forward to the next update. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Mecca
Rooting for you, Qasim. Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to Moscow so I could bring a meal. Love from Iași.
Sending strength, Qasim. I hope things turn around soon. Thinking of Mecca
