By ABU KHALIYL, on September 01, 2005 09:50:54 (Dar al Kitab wal Hikmah - http://www.dkh-islam.com) As-Salamu`Alaykum wa Rahmatullah: Here in Mobile, we are aware of at least two muslim familes whose homes were flooded and everything, or nearly everything was lost from the hurricane which struck here August 29th-30. We are also aware of at leat one family from Ocean Springs, Mississippi whose entire house, except for the frame was completely lost. At this time we are trying to find out the number of Muslim familes from the Biloxi, Missisippi area - we have heard that there are hundreds of displaced, homeless, refugee muslim families, who are currently in the Baton Rouge, Louisianna area. These could be from any of the cities in Mississippi or Louisianna. We will posto more detailed information when it is available. We have had intermitant electrical service in Mobile.. It is on for a while, and then off, as of last night, it is staying on more constantly. I still do not have the main internet connection and am using the phone line. Plesae send an e-mail to whomever you know the link to this page about this message, anyone who can donate to help these muslim failes.
