Helping the disabled. It is the duty of the whole society to establish schools for those persons and secure them due care so that they become good members of the society and that they benefit themselves and their families. In 1998 a Non-governmental organization named CARE SOCIETY was formed to promote the rights of the disabled in Maldives. It is duty of we Muslims to shoulder the responsibility of showing the utmost care to those people, for, according to the teachings of our religion, those persons are sources of Divine mercy and blessings being showered on us now and then. They are the weak for whose sake we are given sustenance and made victorious. In his Hadith, our Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: “You are given sustenance and victory for the virtue of those who are weak amongst you.” We, should show mercy and care to the disabled out of both human and religious motives. In Islam, we are commanded to show mercy to everything in this world. In the Hadith: “Show mercy to those on earth so that He Who is in the heavens (i.e. Allah) bestow mercy to you.”
So my dear friends let us be someone who is always grateful to volunteer. Help the CARE SOCIETY to make a difference in lives of those people in need of care. There are many ways you may contribute the CARE SOCIETY.
