Assalama Alakum,
Greetings in the name of ALLAH the most high ,the most beneficient and
merciful.
As you read this, I don't want you to feel sorry for me, because, I
believe everyone will die oneday.
My name is AHAMED HASSAN, a British merchant. I have been diagnosed
with esophageal cancer which was discovered very late due to my laxity in
carerying for my health. It has defiled all forms of medicine and right
now, I have only about a few months to live according to medical
experts.
I have since lost my power of speech and can only manage to write now,
as that has been the only way I am able to communicate.
I have not particularly lived my life so well, as I never really cared
for anyone not even myself but my business. Though I am very rich, I
was never generous.I was always hostile to people and only focused on my
business as that is the only thing I cared for. But now, I regret all
this as I now know that there is more to life than just wanting to have
or make all the
money in the world. My regerets is that my beloved wife ALIMAH died
exactly ten years ago with same illness. I was told then to donnate some
of my money to charity organisation to save her life ,but i refused due
to my love for money. Then she died and the worst that happen to me is
that i lost my only child just two years ago and now a message from God
said that untill i give arms to the less preveledged before my soul
will be accepted in GOD'S blossom when i die.
I believe when God gives me a second chance to come to this world I
would live my life a different way from how I have lived it. Now that I
know my time is near,
I have willed and given most of my properties and assets to my
immediate and extended family members as well as a few close friends.
I want God to be merciful to me and accept my soul and so, I have
decided to give alms to charity organizations, as I want this to be one
of
the last good deeds I did on earth. So far, I have distributed money to
some charity organizations in the U.A.E, London and Ireland. Now that
my health has deteriorated so badly, I cannot do this my self any more.
I once asked members of my family to close one of my accounts and
donate the money which I have there to charity organization in Bulgaria,
they refused and kept the money to themselves. Hence, I do not trust them
anymore, as they seem not to be contempted with what I have left for
them.
The last of my money which only few of them knows of is the huge cash
deposit that I have with a security firm. This amount is u.s$28.5m. (
twenthy eight million, five hundred thousand united state dollars).
I will want you to help me collect this deposit and dispatched it to
charity organizations.
Wassallam. This is ALLAH'S work that i am entrusting into your hands
now and ALLAH will bless you more abundantly.
When you collect the deposited money from the security company, take
out 15% of the total deposit for yourself and for your family and for all
what you will go through with the security firm for accepting to do
ALLAH'S work.
Finally, for your information, during the time of deposit, I paid all
that was required to be paid to the security firm before they accepted
the deposit. This means that you do not have much financial obligations
on this only that the security firm may require you to pay them a
little amount of money as their dummurage and security deposit charge which
can only be calculated at the time of collection of the deposited
consignment.
May ALLAH grant you the wisdom, strenght and that is required to do his
work to his glory, Amin.
AHAMED HASSAN,
