Subject: Asalam Alykum Ashraf
Asalam Alykum Ashraf May Allah the most grateful and the most merciful be with you, I write this letter with most concern to our Muslim values and the teachings of Prophet Mohammed (May peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) to uplift and defend our religion at all times. I am motivated to write this letter to you after much consideration and with total submission to the will of Allah the most grateful and most merciful. I am Fatima Hussain Osman, the wife of Dr Hussain Osman who was the patron of Muslim Association of Britain (MAB) till he became ill in 1994; he died of cancer in 13th Feb 2005. Until his death we are a devoted Muslim family with the fear of Allah in every thing we do knowing that our reward is not on earth but with Allah. Our marriage was blessed with two children despite our 20 years of marriage.Now my husband's brothers who cowardly became Christian converts because of the pressure on Muslims after July 2005 bombings in U.K. They were brain washed to abandon Muslim faith and the teaching of Islam. I have been battling with the same cancer and HBP that killed my husband for all these years. Recently my doctor told me that I have to be strong in spirit, I knew probably I am approaching my end and so I have to come back to Africa which I decided to be hospitalised in west Africa. But I am happy that I have lived an exemplary life worthy of emulation, even if I die today I know I will be with Allah. My only worry is the money (Fifteen Million five Hundred Thousand US Dollars, 15,500,000 US dollars my husband deposited in a security & Finance company before his death. I have been deliberating over this issue within myself on what will happen to my children and the money on event of my death as I am ill and hospitalised now hence it was my husband's wish to donate this fund for charity in Islamic world. The money is now in Republic of Benin West Africa where I am hospitalise."Will I disclose this information to my husband's brothers who are now Christian Converts"? NO!!

I need an individual/Company to use the 25% for orphanages, widows, and helping land mine victims in the Islamic world. including building of Islamic schools, Mosques and helping of Muslim widows and children. Helping those who have no body to fend for them and pursing the course of Islam in your entire region. You will be entitled to 20% of the total sum for your noble/devoted time to handle this charity work and the balance you would use as instructed. If you are capable of handling this project and know that you shall not divert this money from the purpose it is meant for. I would want you to signify your interest for this course so that I will give you all details and documents that will enable you claim the fund from the security and Finance Vault. You shall act on my behalf as the general overseer and the Next of Kin to the fund and take this money for Allah's project-mosque,school and charity etc. You must respond urgently to this mail so as to make immediate arrangement, would you be capable to handle the course of Allah.
