One always thought gambling was prohibited by Islam, but seemingly it’s not prohibited to accept vast sums of money from the National Lottery.
We’ve just seen ticket prices double to £2, so it seems a good time to look at some of the ‘good causes’ to which your money has been going over the last few years.
£988,874 : The Muslim Council of Wales Charitable Foundation
£988,874 : The Muslim Council of Wales Charitable Foundation
£508,374 : The Kiran Project (to motivate Muslim women)
£337,130 : Faith Matters Community Interest (support victims of ‘Islamophobia’)
£300,000 : Parallax Independent (To produce a drama about a poor Muslim woman whose husband is imprisoned for terrorism after 9/11 – he’s innocent of course!)
£288,993 : Southwark Muslim Womens Association
£264,650 : Milan Centre (Providing creche facilities for Muslim children)
£221,459 : Muslim Women’s Youth, Sport and Education Forum
Those are just a selection – there are plenty more to choose from.
Always worth thinking about next time you think about buying a ticket.
Islam in Britain – Lottery funded!
