Meet Hajera Umma: Facing the World Alone Without a Stable Roof
After spending years in rented accommodation, Hajera Umma, 68, now enjoys the comfort and security of her own home, where she lives with her married daughter and son-in-law. The new house has brought her peace of mind and relieved the constant worry and uncertainty she once faced.
Living with diabetes, high blood pressure, and asthma, Hajera depends on her family for support and attends monthly medical check-ups. Widowed for 13 years, she raised nine children alongside her late husband, a labourer.
Filled with gratitude, Hajera offers heartfelt prayers for the donors, asking Allah (SWT) to bless them abundantly and reward their generosity with the highest place in Jannah.
Hajera’s story is shared by millions of women globally facing critical social and economic hardship:
