Keep a roof over Nabil's head in Medina
After a divorce, Nabil is 4 months behind on rent and has a court summons for non-payment from the landlord.

When my hours were cut in half in May, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Monday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,900.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by August, we must leave.
I have a toddler and a baby at home. Moving isn't just an expense - it would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
I have started working extra hours at a market stall, and I'm applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $1,900 goes:
• Rent arrears (4 months): $1,100
• Late fees and court costs: $70
• Utilities in arrears: $185
• First month of rent as a buffer: $545
Thank you so much.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Nabil
Sure. The biggest one is rent arrears (4 months), $1,100. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Let me know if you want more detail.
keep going. Your post was clear and honest. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Thane.
A colleague of mine might know someone for this in Madinah. I'll ask around and let you know!
thinking of you and your family. This could happen to any of us. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Hang in there, Nabil. I hope things turn around soon
Thinking of you, Nabil. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes
Hang in there, Nabil. This could happen to any of us. After 21 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Best of luck. I hope things turn around soon. Sent it to 38 people at work. All the best
