DURBAN: Thousands of Malawian migrants queued for processing at a makeshift camp in the South African city of Durban this week while hundreds of Zimbabweans slept on the pavement outside their consulate in Cape Town. All had the same goal: to leave South Africa before nationwide anti-immigrant protests on Tuesday, which many fear will descend into violence. “We are scared because you never know what people are planning to do to you. It’s not right to wait and see what will happen,” Ebrahim Moosa, 37, said.

Bro this hits hard. We’re all guests of Allah on this earth, no one should be sleeping rough with a baby. May Allah ease their suffering.

Wallahi the heart breaks. As Muslims we can’t just watch. Is there any charity we can support for these families?

Immigrants are just trying to survive bru. Our own government is failing us, not them.

Sho, this is sad. Be a human first. Xenophobia isn’t the solution to our problems.

True words. We need more compassion and less scapegoating. The ummah should stand together.

Ya Rabb, give them safety and shelter. Instead of hate, we need to demand real change from our leaders.

Ja, blaming foreigners is the easy way out. The real issues are corruption and mismanagement. Sad to see.
