Bismillaahir-Rahmaanir-Raheem
Dear Beloved,
I send my love and greetings to you. I am Mrs Fatimah A Mohamed from MALAYSIA. I am married to Late Dr.Omar A. Mohamed of blessed memory who was oil explorer in Kuwait and Brunei for ten years before he died in the year 2003. We were married for ten years without a child.
He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days, may his soul rest In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful. Before his death we converted to a devoted Muslim,and respect others who serves him,Since his death, I too have been battling with both Cancer and fibroid problems,my doctor told me that I have less than three months to live due to my cancer problem, and this lead to a stroke attack which bother me most though because i cannot move as i use to.
Having known my condition I decided seek for your help in ALLAH'S work.
I am in search of a good Muslim whom i can entrust a fund to. either a philanthropic organization or devoted individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein.
When my late Husband was alive he Deposited the sum of $2million (two Million U.S Dollars) in a Finance Firm under my name for family reasons.
So if you are willing to help me for our Allah's work just like Prophet Muhammad (saas) was the final Messenger of Allah to humanity: 20% of the US$2million goes to you to ensure that you are prepared for the task ahead, 75% of it will be used in all sincerity to fund philanthropic organization, orphanages and widows, while 5% of the will go to the family Attorney who will prepare the Authorization.
I am taking this decision because the relatives of my husband have confiscated other of our wealth's due to my husband and I converted to a Muslim. Based on that i don't want to in trust this fund to non believers. and i have no child, which i cannot take the fund to the grave. I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly manner,As a child of ALLAH i did remember about how it was written in the Quran "It is not righteousness that you turn your faces towards East or West; but it is righteousness to believe in ALLAH and the Last Day and the Angels, and the Book, and the Messengers; to spend of your substance, out of love for Him, for your kin, for orphans for the needy, for the wayfarer, for those who ask; and for the freeing of captives; to be steadfast in prayers, and practise regular charity; to fulfil the contracts which you made; and to be firm and patient in pain (or suffering) and adversity and throughout all periods of panic. Such a
re the people of truth, the ALLAH conscious." (2:177) hence i took the bold decision. Since my health is retrogressing by all minute,
So my dear beloved, do get back to me and let me know if you are willing to carry out this Allah work. Then I will make arrangement to prepare the Authorization through the my Attorney for you to get Possession of this Fund. As soon as I receive your reply.
I pray that this letter bring you and your family good tiding while my dreams to help humanity rest squarely on your shoulders. May the Almighty ALLAH continue to guide and protect you.
Do remember me in your prayer because that is what i needed most for now.
waasalam.
Mrs Fatimah A Mohamed.
