Mohamed Mangalore- Fear Allah when lying! your's is a rubbish comment,i though not to waste time in useless conversation when we could be doing acts of worship,and not to lose last ten nights of Ramadan.
But To put facts right-I am no where connected or related to Highly respected Mohamed Ali Sir,but he get me a highly paid job in a reputed company,Al ahmdulliha.

like me there are 100 of youngsters from community benefited from his support,and May Allah bless him and his family
And coming back to Iftar meet- BWF executives contribute and arrange the Iftar ,which is very much instrumental in spread brotherhood,togetherness with community people as well as brotherly community members.

Don't forget BWF's mega charity projects,through which they are serving the community.

So,brother don't try to spread \Fitna\",which is job of Eblish. Try
serve the needy and encourage others also to do so.

it is last ten days of Ramadan and try to learn basic of Ramadan"

Mangaluru, May 22: An elderly cardiac patient from Dakshina Kannada, who was stranded in Saudi Arabia due to covid-19 lock-down, has finally reached his homeland thanks to the timely intervention by Humanity Forum Jubail and Indian Social Forum.

The elderly man hailing from Kadaba area of Dakshina Kannada was admitted to a hospital in Madinah. However, his condition continued to worsen due to lack of proper treatment. The efforts by his family members to bring him back home had not yielded results.

Meanwhile, one of the relatives of the patient, Ansari Suratkal, who happens to be a DKSC activist, brought the issue to the notice of the Karnataka unit of the Indian Social Forum in Dammam. ISF contacted Humanity Forum president Zakariya Jokatte, who helped the patient to speak directly union minister D V Sadananda Gowda in a video conference organised by coastaldigest.com.

Humanity Forum also persuaded the Indian Embassy to allow the stranded cardiac patient to fly back to India through Dammam-Bengaluru repatriation flight on May 20. 

However, it was not easy for the patient to travel from Madinah to Dammam International Airport due to lock-down and curfew. ISF not only obtained travel permission for him but also arranged vehicle. Jeddah and Riyadh units of ISF helped in obtaining permission letter in their respective places in spite of travel ban imposed by the police. Madinah unit of ISF arranged vehicle for transportation. Zakariya Jokatte bore the air ticket and other expenses of the patient.
