A Widow's Plea



Shaukat Ali Khan (Late)
1960 - 2011
To,
H.H Shaikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan
President Of U.A.E

Your Highness,

With all due respect I would like to say that my husband Mr Shaukat Ali Khan performed his services under your kind control for almost 18 years. About 6 years ago he suffered from heart disease. The doctors advised him an open heart surgery but we were not able to arrange such a huge amount for this operation. Hence, my husband died on 7th January 2011 leaving behind 5 children (2 boys ages of 8 and 10 years respectively and 3 girls with the ages of 12,16 and 18 years). We are now living from hand to  mouth. The house in which we are living is rented and it is difficult for us to pay the monthly rent.

Therefore, I am not able to afford the education expenses of my children which has caused them to quit school.

For earning my livelihood I have started sewing ladies suits at home but the income which I generate is not sufficient for our needs. Therefore, you are requested to grant a reasonable monthly stipend for me and my children so they are able to continue their education and we can meet our basic needs as well.

I will be grateful to you for this act of kindness till the Day Of Judgement.

Awaiting your help,
Mrs Shaheen Ali Khan (Widow of the Late Shaukat Ali Khan)
