What is Ansar and Muhajireen?

In the early days of Islam, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) orchestrated a remarkable display of unity and compassion between two groups: the Ansar and the Muhajirin. The Muhajirin, early Muslims who left their homes in Mecca to escape persecution, found a new home in Medina thanks to the generosity of the Ansar. The Prophet personally paired each Muhajir with an Ansar, fostering a deep bond of brotherhood. The Ansar opened their hearts and homes, sharing their resources and treating the Muhajirin as family.
This powerful bond of brotherhood and support is a shining example for us today. As the Quran says, “The ones who believed, emigrated and struggled in the way of Allah with their wealth and their lives, and those who gave shelter and helped – they are the true allies of one another” (Surah Al-Anfal 8:72).

Community Benefits of Mentoring Refugees

Mentoring a refugee through Mozaic’s program offers numerous benefits to the community. By becoming a mentor, community members have the opportunity to foster a deeper understanding of diverse cultures and global perspectives, enriching their own lives. This engagement promotes empathy, inclusivity, and social cohesion, as mentors and refugees build meaningful relationships and learn from each other.

Mentors play a pivotal role in helping refugees integrate more quickly and effectively, which leads to a more vibrant, diverse, and unified community. Additionally, mentors often experience personal growth and fulfillment, knowing they have made a significant positive impact on someone’s life by contributing to their journey towards self-sufficiency and independence.
