I am proud to provide a letter of reference for Asma Hanif. As the CEO and founder
of Inge Benevolent Ministries dba Muslimat Al-Nisaa, the only known shelter in the country that exclusively serves Muslim women, Ms. Hanif has devoted her life completely above and beyond to provide safety and stability for women who are homeless or victims of domestic abuse. Never mind that she is not trained to run a shelter, she does it anyways from her heart because she knows that these women have absolutely no other place to turn. Ms. Hanif has dedicated her life to create this safe environment for these women who can not only sleep comfortably, but they can also pray and practice their faith without being questioned. More importantly, Ms. Hanif also devotes significant time to empower these women so that they can stand up on their feet. To maximize her time with these women, Ms. Hanif lives in the shelter with the women and always makes herself accessible for counseling and support.
Her commitment and vision for Muslimat Al Nisaa is unwavering. If there is a way she can
help someone, she will. She never wants to turn anyone away but sometimes lack of funds
necessitates her to say no ...but that does not happen unless she has exhausted all avenues to
raise money for their transport or whatever it is necessary. Helping the women and hearing
their heart breaking stories and raising funds to run the shelter has taken a toll on Ms. Hanif.
Ms. Hanif is a staple in this community. A leading figure in her religious community and she
is an inspiration and well- loved by everyone who knows her. These women in the shelter
are testament to her dedication and passion for her work and there is no one more dedicated
than Ms. Hanif who is truly committed to the legacy of her grandmother - ie. she turns no
one away if she can help it. Sincerely ER
