Muslim Association in Austria Provides Meals to Homeless
Deputy head of RAHMA Austria association Omer Batur told Anadolu Agency on Sunday that for three years they have been providing hot meals to homeless people several days of the week.
Batur said they provide hot meals to around 100 homeless people in a day.
He said both Austrians and the foreigners living in Austria received the project "very positively".
"With projects like this, Muslims can give the message 'we are living in this country and we are in a search of solutions to common problems of this country' to the society they live in," Batur stressed.
Batur said social events like this are an important way of countering far-right rhetoric which has risen in Austria recently.
He added that RAHMA Austria association has been providing aid to many needy people around the world for 25 years, including Syrians, Rohingya Muslim, and Palestinian refugees.
