Mulberry, Florida- September 5, 2013. The World Muslim Congress, a Muslim think tank committed to building cohesive America announced that they have worked out details with the One Blood organization of Florida to facilitate blood donation.
Thanks to One Blood, Inc. for sending the Big Red Bus to the Mulberry Civic Center Venue on September 11, 2013 between 8 AM and 11 AM – please come and donate blood. I realized the importance of blood donation when my late wife was on her death bed and needed blood, when my uncle was in a motor cycle accident and needed blood. Donate blood. www.OneBlood.org
Saving a life is like saving the whole humanity says the Quran, a book of guidance like all other holy books in building harmony in a given society. It is about building societies that care for other for the ultimate benefit of each member of the society.
Qur’an, Chapter Al-Ma’idah (The Table Spread) 5:32 (Asad) “Because of this did We ordain unto the children of Israel that if anyone slays a human being-unless it be [in punishment] for murder or for spreading corruption on earth-it shall be as though he had slain all mankind; whereas, if anyone saves a life, it shall be as though he had saved the lives of all mankind. [40] And, indeed, there came unto them [41] Our apostles with all evidence of the truth: yet, behold, notwithstanding all this, many of them go on committing all manner of excesses on earth.”
