HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATION REPORTING:


"HR ALERT! Witnessed a Human Rights Violation? SUBMIT A REPORT NOW" we call this the CSO-PIMM form: find the online submission below it:

We are thankful that our fervent prayers are granted by The Most Compassionate and Beneficent ALLAH.

This serves as proof which is quite a relief to our frustrations that there ARE still institutions who respect the dignity and inviolable rights of fellow human beings regardless of religious affiliation.

May we continue to uphold and abide the law in consonance with and respect to the inalienable rights of all Muslim Filipinos. 

Aameen Ya Rabb!
