Today there is peace. But the hardships remain.
Afghan refugees have suffered over four decades of displacement. During the 1980s, over 1.5 million Muslims were forced to flee their homeland during the Soviet invasion. In the decade after, thousands more became refugees amid the brutal civil strife. And in the last twenty years, a further one million were displaced by the War on Terror.
The cynical freezing of assets in 2021 has left many refugee families penniless and hungry. Over one million refugee children are thought to be facing starvation.

‘Surely, from amongst the deed that make Jannah incumbent (upon the believer) is the feeding of a hungry Muslim.’
