Thank you for joining me today as I share the story and mission of the Anwaar-Ul Mustafaa Trust, a non-profit organisation that holds a special place in my heart. I am Muhamad Mustafa Khan, the chairman of this charity, and I would like to take a moment to explain why we founded this organisation, describe the projects we have undertaken so far, outline our future initiatives.
The Anwaar-Ul Mustafaa Trust was established with a vision to make a positive and lasting impact on the lives of the underprivileged in rural areas of Bangladesh. We recognised that poverty and social and economic inequality were pervasive issues in these regions, and we wanted to be a catalyst for change. Our core belief is that every individual deserves not just a chance at life but the opportunity to thrive, to have a safe place to call home, to receive an education, and to enjoy good health.
To date, we have undertaken several projects that align with our mission of poverty alleviation and community betterment. We have worked to provide emergency aid to the victims of the devastating 2022 floods in Sylhet, offering crucial support during a time of great need. We have also funded essential medical procedures for those who could not afford them, such as a life-changing hip replacement surgery for a young man and cataract eye surgeries for individuals struggling with vision impairments.
Additionally, we have assisted disadvantaged families in acquiring land, enabling them to build homes and secure shelter for their loved ones. We firmly believe that having a safe and stable place to live is a fundamental human right, and we are committed to making this a reality for as many families as possible.
In terms of education, we have provided valuable resources to underprivileged students, including books and laptops. Education is the key to breaking the cycle of poverty, and we are determined to give children in rural areas the tools they need to succeed.
Looking forward, we plan to assist individuals in starting farming ventures to sustain their livelihoods. Agriculture is a vital source of income in rural areas, and by providing training and resources, we aim to empower communities to become self-reliant and economically stable. We also look towards building educational establishments including madrashas. We understand the importance of education in nurturing young minds and providing them with the knowledge and values they need to lead meaningful lives.
Anwaar-Ul Mustafaa Trust was founded with a mission to alleviate poverty, promote education, enhance maternal health, and improve the overall quality of life in rural Bangladesh. We have achieved significant milestones thus far, and we are excited about the positive impact we can continue to make in the lives of those in need. Together, we can secure a better future for generations to come, fostering socioeconomic equality and enhancing the health and well-being of our community.
Jazak Allahu Khayran. Thank you for your attention, and please feel free to reach out to us if you’d like to be part of our mission to create positive change in rural Bangladesh.

আল্লাহর মনোনীত ধর্মের নাম ইসলাম। ইসলামের অনুসারীদের মুসলমান বলা হয়। ইসলাম অন্ধকারকে আলোকিত করে। প্রত্যেক নবী রাসুলগণ অন্ধকার সমাজকে ধ্বংস করে আলোকিত সমাজ প্রতিষ্ঠা করে গেছেন। সর্ব যুগের, সর্ব শ্রেষ্ঠ মহামানব হচ্ছেন মহানবী সঃ। মহানবী সঃকে উজ্জ্বল নক্ষত্র হিসেবে আখ্যায়িত করা হয়েছে। উনি উনার আদর্শের আলো দিয়ে অন্ধকার সমাজকে ধ্বংস করে মানব সভ্যতাকে আলোকিত সমাজ উপহার দিয়েছেন। মহান আল্লাহ তাআলা আল্লাহ নভোমন্ডল ও ভূমন্ডলের জ্যোতি এবং এই জ্যোতি দ্বারা আল্লাহ মহানবী সঃকে আলোকিত করেছেন। এবং মুহাম্মদ সঃ সেই আলো দ্বারা আরবের সেই অন্ধকার সমাজকে আলোকিত করেছেন।
