Muslims raise funds for victims of the terrorist attack at Crocus City Hall

Russia and the CIS (bbabo.net) - The Spiritual Administration of Muslims in Moscow will join the “We Are Together” movement, which raises funds for victims of the terrorist attack at Crocus City Hall and relatives of the victims, TASS reports. Initially, the idea of opening our own collection was discussed, but it was decided to abandon it.

“Muslims were among the first to take the initiative to provide assistance to the victims and relatives of the victims, including financial assistance. Unfortunately, due to recent events, cases of fraud have become more frequent, so a decision was made to organize a centralized collection. Thus, Muslims joined the collection , organized by the “We are together” movement,” said Ildar Alyautdinov, deputy chairman of the Muslim Spiritual Directorate of the Russian Federation.

The mufti noted that many Muslims, despite the Ramadan fast and weakness, donated blood for the victims of the terrorist attack.
