Recent reports show that one in five children in the US go to bed hungry. A universally compassionate faith, Islam teaches us that there is no distinction between a hungry Muslim or a hungry non-Muslim.<\/p>\n<p>A person who is suffering here in America is just as deserving as someone who is in distress elsewhere. The Prophet Mohammed (peace be upon him) repeatedly tells us that we are responsible for our neighbors: \u201c<i>He is not a believer who lets himself be satiated while his neighbor goes hungry.<\/i>\u201d<\/p>\n<p>We envision an American society where the most vulnerable individuals find the help they need to pursue a productive and healthy lifestyle. \u00a0This vision is based on the tradition of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) who reminded us that when a part of our community is in pain, the rest of the community should come to its support.
