Condolence Message:This must be one of the sadest and most horrific event of our times. To all of the families touched by this tragedy,it is with horror we view this level of devestation without the ability to help in some way. It will take many lifetimes to recover from the sense of grief the people must be experiencing. It sounds rather useless to say that I and those I know will be praying for you and the souls of your loved ones but this is something we can offer. Sincerely, Jean Quinn

It may have destroyed our state but can never destroy our brotherhood. Prayers for all!!

Observing the series of natural disasters - quakes, droughts and cyclones, air-crashes, countless railway disasters, terrorist attacks, road accidents - it's hard to think the country's not cursed.

Condolence Message:After such devestation that struck India, what words can be said to convay the sympathy felt by my family and me towards the Indian people. I hope that India, as spiritually strong as she is, will see that those who perish are in a far better place, and that they have shed the cares of this life, and take their rest in Paradise. I take hope from the photograph of an injured child, who, despite her bandages, was finally able to smile a beautiful smile again. I believe that she represents the Indian people, who will recover from this, and, hopefully, will be stronger for it. But in the meantime, please allow us to pray for India and her people, to try in some small way to send comfort to those who now mourn. There are many religions whose followers now cry out for strength, and may your prayers be answered, no matter what faith you hold. B. Benson Corona, CA

Condolence Message:Dear All, Its tough times for our friends in Gujarat. I have some fond memories associated with that place. I always used to wonder how come people are so sweet and straight forward in this part of country. These days I am in San Francisco and would be leaving for India on 16th of Feb. I have started a small help campaign to collect donations for my brothers n sisters in Gujarat. I would go out in streets of San Francisco and ask for help ! Every penny collected through this drive would be deposited with Prime Minister's Earthquake Relief Fund. I urge you all to come forward and contribute in every possible way in these tragic times. You can reach me on tarunar@usa.net. Hoping the very best for my pals in Gujarat. Tarun

Condolence Message:My heartfelt condolences to the people of Gujarat and other states who have suffered loss of lives, limbs, and property in this disaster. May Allah give the survivors the courage to get over this unthinkable tragedy. This is also the time we do some soul searching ourself, and realize how shameful it is to dislike people on the lines of religion, race,caste and wealth. None of these parameters came to the rescue of lives, nor none of these were applied to take lives. It was pure and simple human life that was taken away. It is time we realized how uncertain life is, and how we waste it in hatred towards one another, instead of living together by mutual help and understanding. Hope the sad memories of this tragic incident will help us lead a life with willingess to help each other, readiness to listen to one another, ability to understand one another, share and adjust with one another, and spend it usefully and purposefully. I pray to Allah for all those who have suffered. Raja Ismail.
