as'salaamu alaykum, 

Twenty American doctors, including the father of one our students at NYU, who traveled to Gaza in collaboration with the WHO, are being denied safe return by Israel to the United States.

We need you to contact the Biden administration URGENTLY to demand the Israeli government establish a safe humanitarian aid corridor, ensuring US and other aid workers can carry out their work without fear of attack and have the ability to return home safely.

Please take the following actions:

  1. Go to bit.ly/letourdocsgo & follow the steps listed
  2. Tag @potus and the @statedept in your shares and posts on social media
  3. Call local representatives and senates URGENTLY AND FREQUENTLY (contact information in post)
  4. Repost and share with easy link access

Help Bring Them Home Now

Barakallahu feekum - May Allah bless each of you always and give to you and your loved ones only the best in this world and the best in the next.  Ameen. 

PS: If you are in the NYC Area, we will be having a presentation in person tomorrow and over zoom for those who are not in NYC on Tuesday with Dr. Ahmed Ebeid who went on two mission trips to Gaza, details on which I'll paste below.  Join in from wherever you are for a first-hand account of what it is like on the ground in Gaza.
