Zeynab back home

This is Zeynab, maybe the most famous Iraq 11yr old in the world. 17 members of her family were killed by an American bomb in March 2003, which also destroyed her right leg. A Palestinian friend paid for her to go to London to get a prothetic leg fitted, which is where I met her. She is pictured with her father (her only close relative still alive) writing messages to friends in England. The Islam TV Channel in Britain had an appeal a few days ago, in Zeynab's name, which raised $200,000 for the Basra hospital.

Thank God that atleast this cute little girl survived thought she lost the whole of her right.The unfortunate fact is that not many girls were as fortunate as she was and got killed in the attacks. May Allah help her live without a leg and help the other innocent citizens of Iraq
