Raihaanah Ahmed, a mother and community volunteer from St Albans, was recognised with a Daily Mirror Pride of Britain Award for her remarkable work tackling food poverty and reducing food waste.
Raihaanah founded the St Albans Community Pantry in 2020, creating a volunteer-led initiative to ensure that people struggling to access food could receive nutritious meals and essential supplies with dignity.
The initiative went on to support around 600 people every week. Volunteers collected surplus food, sorted donations and redistributed them to local residents, helping prevent perfectly good food from going to waste.
The work also extended beyond food distribution, with community meals to tackle social isolation, doorstep deliveries for vulnerable residents and community fridge sessions.
Raihaanah was quick to share the recognition with her volunteers, highlighting the collective effort behind the initiative.

Abdul El-Sayed makes history as America's first Muslim senator.
Dr Abdul El-Sayed has made history in the United States after winning Michigan's US Senate race, becoming the first Muslim ever elected to the US Senate.
The 41-year-old Democrat, a physician and former public health official, ran against Republican Mike Rogers in a closely watched election that attracted national attention.
El-Sayed, who is of Egyptian heritage, campaigned on issues including universal healthcare, economic equality and ending US military aid to Israel. He also became a prominent voice on Palestine, describing Israel's actions in Gaza as genocide.
His campaign attracted national attention, particularly after he faced repeated attacks targeting his Muslim identity.

“We did it. My name is Abdulrahman Muhammad El-Sayed, and I am so proud and honored to stand here as your senator-elect from the great state of Michigan”
After claiming victory and becoming the first Muslim to be elected into the U.S Senate, Abdul El-Sayed made his speech to his supporters.
“Up until right about now, you might have noticed I always say in sha Allah, or God willing, whenever the outcome of this race was mentioned. But today, tonight, we can turn that in sha Allah into an Alhamdulillah.”
This is for the right-wing ops: that just means “praise be to God.”

Abū Hurayrah رضي الله عنه reported Allāh's Messenger ﷺ as saying that Allāh, the Exalted and Glorious, thus stated:
“I am near to the thought of My servant as he thinks about Me, and I am with him as he remembers Me. And if he remembers Me in his heart, I also remember him in My Heart, and if he remembers Me in assembly I remember him in assembly, better than his (remembrance), and if he draws near Me by the span of a palm, I draw near him by the cubit, and if he draws near Me by the cubit I draw near him by the space (covered by) two hands. And if he walks towards Me, I rush towards him.”
[Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 2675a]

Sayyid al-Istighfār: The Best Prayer for Seeking Forgiveness
Narrated Shaddād ibn Aws رضي الله عنه: The Prophet (ﷺ) said "The most superior way of asking for forgiveness from Allāh is:
اللهم أنت ربي، لا إله إلا أنت ، خلقتني وأنا عبدك، وأنا على عهدك ووعدك ما استطعت أعوذ بك من شر ما صنعت أبوء لك بنعمتك علي، وأبوء بذنبي، فاغفر لي فإنه لا يغفر الذنوب إلا أنت
The Prophet (ﷺ) added. "If somebody recites it during the day with firm faith in it, and dies on the same day before the evening, he will be from the people of Paradise; and if somebody recites it at night with firm faith in it, and dies before the morning, he will be from the people of Paradise."
[Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 6306]
Transliteration: Allāhumma anta rabbī, lā ilāha illā anta,, khalaqtanī wa-anā ʿabduka, wa-anā ʿalā ʿahdika wa-waʿdika mā’istaṭaʿtu, aʿūdhu bika min sharri mā ṣanaʿtu abūʾu laka bi-niʿmatika ʿalayy, wa-abūʾu laka bidhanbī, fa’ighfir lī fa-innahu lā yaghfir al-dhunūba illā ant
Translation: O Allāh, You are my Lord, there is no God but You. You created me and I am Your servant, and I abide by Your covenant and promise (to honour it) as best as I can. I seek refuge in You from the evil that I have committed. I acknowledge Your favor upon me, and I acknowledge my sin, so forgive me, for surely none can forgive sins but You.

Narrated by Abū Hurayrah رضي الله عنه: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said,
"The reward of the prayer offered by a person in congregation is twenty five times greater than that of the prayer offered in one's house or in the market (alone).
And this is because if he performs ablution and does it perfectly and then proceeds to the mosque with the sole intention of praying, then for every step he takes towards the mosque, he is upgraded one degree in reward and his one sin is taken off (crossed out) from his accounts (of deeds).
When he offers his prayer, the angels keep on asking Allāh's Blessings and Allāh's forgiveness for him as long as he is (staying) at his Musalla.
They say, 'O Allāh! Bestow Your blessings upon him, be Merciful and kind to him.'
And one is regarded in prayer as long as one is waiting for the prayer."
