Muslims in United Kingdom suffer Poverty

18th June 2010

Recent headline news published by TUC in the United Kingdom shows that over 50% of Muslim families in the UK live in poverty, when compared with average UK incomes.

Trades Union Congress study focused on the United Kingdom Muslims of Pakistani and Bangladeshi origin. It found that some 69% of these communities live in poverty and at 43%, they have the lowest employment rate of any ethnic group.

Faced with such harsh reality Sharia.com has launched a London-UK site. The aim is that poor Muslims of London and United Kingdom can use www.sharia.com/london to trade online and earn extra income.

Sharia.com allows poor Muslims from around the world as well as other poor communities to list and display their products and services for sale, for free. Buyers from the local area as well as worldwide are encouraged to trade with the poor, so they can earn an income and get out of poverty with dignity and pride. Aid and Charity to date have largely failed poor Muslims around the world.

The Sharia.com team requests individuals and groups to join in the effort with Sharia.com by becoming users of the website, become volunteers, interns, supporting members, cyber activists/warriors, journalist supporters and IT Geek supporters.

More information on how you can use the website and how to get involved can be seen in the Join Us section at www.sharia.com
