IMAN joins Towards Peace 2015 in Manila!

Manila—The Islamic Medical Association of the Philippines, Inc. (IMAN) joins various Muslim organizations throughout the metro in “Towards Peace 2015: Embracing our Imaan, the Philippine Tour” last March 1, 2015 at Philippine Trade Training Center, this city. This event, the last leg of a series of Islamic lectures around the country (Cotabato, Cagayan De Oro, and Marawi), was led by internationally known lecturers Mufti Ismael Menk and Brother Wael Ibrahim as guest speakers. Just in the Manila event, more than 2,000 participants attended in what could be considered as among the biggest convention of Muslims in Manila.

The Medical team: Dr.Valdez, Dr. Mustofa, Dr. Fernandez, Dr. Basman, Dr. Maca-alin and soon-to-be Dr. Ibrahim

More than two thousand particpants came from around the Metro Manila

Alhamdulillah through Allah's help and with the efforts of our sister Dr. Jannah Valdez, a fellow IMAN Doctor an also an active member of the New Muslim Care Philippines, a collaboration with the organizers was implemented and IMAN became the official medical partner for the said event.

During the whole event, a medical booth was provided wherein IMAN doctors and volunteers were stationed to address any necessary medical needs of the participants, and even the volunteers as well. Alhamdulillah there were only few minor cases and they were all handled accordingly.

A great number of Muslim doctors, medical students and members of the allied health also came and expressed their interest in joining the IMAN team. Membership forms and brochures were given to those who were interested.

Among the IMAN doctors who were present in the event were Dr. Saud Basman (Orthopedic Surgeon), Dr. Al-Nasser Maca-alin (Infectious Disease Consultant), Dr. Almira Zoraida Fernandez (OB Gyne), Dr. Jannah Valdez (Pediatrics), Dr. Naheeda Mustofa (Internal Medicine, Clinical Nutritionist), and Dr. Zhamir Umag (Board Secretary). There were also volunteers from the allied health fields and medical students who helped.

Medical supplies, beds and necessary emergency medicines were Alhamdulillah provided by our partners like the Department of Health (DOH) and the New Muslim Care Philippines. The Bureau of Fire Prevention (BFP) also provided a single unit of Ambulance which was used to transport a single patient who collapsed by the end of the event.

Alhamdulillah it was indeed a wonderful experience and also great opportunity for IMAN to serve the participants and the volunteers who needed medical attention. Alhamdulillah and in sha Allah, may Allah accept this deed, Allahumma ameen.

IMAN joins New Muslim Care in Healing and Feeding Program

Hadith:
Jabir reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “The food of one person is enough for two, and the food of two people is enough for four, and the food of four people is enough for eight.” -Sahih Muslim 2059

A Healing and Feeding Program organized by the New Muslim Care Philippines was done last November 10, 2013 at BASECO1 Port Area, Manila wherein more than 300 children and 100 adults attended. The half-day activity included health lectures to the mothers, storytelling and games for the kids and a feeding program for the Muslim and Non-Muslim children of the said barangay.    

The activity would never be a success without the blessings of Allah and the efforts and support of the volunteers and members of other partner organizations, namely: Bangsamoro Overseas Filipino Workers Organization (BOFWO), a Baseco-based Muslim organization led by bro Nasra Guro Onsok; the Islamic Medical Association of the Philippines (IMAN); the Nur Factory Islamic Transformational Movement of the Philippines; and the community in Baseco.

This is the second feeding program conducted in the same area with the first one, another feeding program, done through the personal initiative of bro Abdul Wali in partnership with Nur Factory and BOFWO in August 2013 after the habagat storm.  In shaa ALLAH another healing program targeting more than 500 kids will be conducted in February 2014.

Please include us in your dua’as that these humble efforts will reach and serve more Muslim communities in the future. May Allah reward us all for every simple thing we do for His sake. Ameen.
