May Allah shower His blessings upon you and your families in this blessed month of Ramzan. May your hopes, dreams and wishes become reality.

May He also help us to help our countrymen affected by the flood in this time of need. Aid agencies in Pakistan warn that unless there is more international help, many more people will die in floods now inundating southern areas.
