Assalaamu alaykum all
Please take a few moments to read the following.
Ginny is known personally to my family; jazakAllah khair for any help that you can give her and/or her family, even if just a duaa.
Wa salaam
As-Salaamu 'alaikum,
Some of you may know of sister Ginny Quick a convert to Islam. She is blind, and
lives with her family near Clarksville, Tennessee.
On Sunday the house Ginny was living in with her brother and
his wife burned to the ground. They have lost nearly all their
possessions. She herself was left with a few items of clothing which
she was wearing at the time she fled the burning house. Her guide dog
is also safe. Nobody was injured, and the three have moved back to
their parents' house, which is in the same town (Erin). (The fire is
thought to be the result of an electrical fault, not arson, much less
any anti-Islamic activity.)
A group of us who run weblogs have set up an appeal for aid to Ginny
and her family. She needs money, and particularly clothing. The
information about what she needs and where to send it is available on
these three blog posts:

Please do whatever you can to help.
Ma'a as-Salaama
