Help us cover all medicare, food, and relocation costs for babies that were born addicted to opioids



Allah (SWT) tells us in the Quran: Whoever Saves the Life of ONE person, it is as if he has saved the ENTIRE humanity.  (Al-Ma’idah: Ayat 32)


Try to imagine the moment when a baby is born. 


Normally, this is a life event that most people cherish. 9 months of carrying the baby. The struggles. The memories. The baby arrives to love and family. 


Instead, now imagine this child barely survives labor. And that's just the beginning. Not only did the baby barely survive its own birth, it is also born addicted to heroin. Full blown addict. Needing its fix. Agitated without drugs. Not able to sleep. Miserable. Screaming. Crying for its mother and she is nowhere to be found. 


In the United States a baby is born every 15 minutes suffering from opioid withdrawal. Use of opioids during pregnancy can result in a drug withdrawal syndrome in newborns called neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS).

Babies with NAS suffer from a variety of symptoms:
  • tight muscles leading to body stiffness
  • hyperactive reflexes
  • tremors and seizures
  • trouble feeding 
  • gastrointestinal problems
  • diarrhea
  • breathing problems

Almost all of them have a distinct, high-pitched cry which is very painful and heartbreaking to watch.

Unfortunately this epidemic in America is only increasing, along with the babies being in NICU. We are providing free medical treatment and supplies to these infants that deserve a second chance in life.

What Do We Need?   

To wean babies off the drugs, doctors use one of two possible treatments, either: 


  • methadone, the same opiate used to treat adult drug addicts or
  • a combination of morphine and clonidine

The combination of morphine and clonidine has to be given out in regular doses over a longer period of time than methadone. This means infants have to stay longer in the NICU. Longer stays only mean big hospital bills. 

We need your help to continue, YOU have the ability to help save the lives of these children from dying. If just 200 Muslims donated $100 we would raise all the money! There are 1.5 Billion Muslims, will you be from these 200 Extraordinary Muslims?


What’s in it for YOU?  

  • YOU get the reward of saving lives
  • Providing a home for them
  • Providing access to medical care
  • Providing food and other expenses that these babies require



How Can YOU Help?


We ONLY need a total of 200 people to help us. If you donate just $100  you can be one of the inheritors of a great reward or you can even donate for 10 people by giving $1000. Share it with your friends and family.. 


The Prophet SAW said: Whoever visits the sick or a brother of his to seek the pleasure of Allah, an angel calls out: May you be happy, may your walking be blessed, and may you be awarded a dignified position in Jannah. (Tirmidhi)
