As the 443rd day of the operation "Tsunami of Al-Aqsa" begins, the occupation forces continue to escalate their aggression against the Gaza Strip, leaving behind massacres against civilians, amid ongoing clashes between the Palestinian resistance and the occupation forces across several fronts.

The occupation targets Kamal Adwan Hospital  

The Israeli occupation forces demanded the evacuation of Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza and proceeded to bomb it and fire upon its facilities, jeopardizing the lives of patients, their companions, and medical staff. The Ministry of Health in Gaza confirmed that the occupation ordered the immediate evacuation of the hospital, while a correspondent for "Al Jazeera" reported a loss of communication with journalists inside.

"Al Jazeera" mentioned that it obtained footage showing a crowd of wounded women and children in the corridors of the hospital after all its sections were targeted by gunfire and shelling. The hospital's director, Dr. Hossam Abu Safiya, stated that the bombing targeted the hospital directly, holding the international community responsible for what is happening.

Gaza government: The occupation's threats to Kamal Adwan Hospital are a systematic crime to destroy the health sector

The government media office in Gaza condemned in the strongest terms the repeated Israeli threats against Kamal Adwan Hospital, considering them a part of a systematic plan to destroy the health sector. The office called in a statement for the World Health Organization to send an urgent field delegation to investigate the perpetrated crimes and ensure the protection of health facilities and medical teams.

It also urged the international community to take immediate action to stop these crimes. The occupation “Israeli” and the countries supporting it, such as the United States, Britain, Germany, and France, bear full responsibility for the continuation of genocide in the sector.

Hebrew newspaper: Jabalia has become a ghost town

The Hebrew newspaper "Haaretz" revealed that the occupation has destroyed about 70% of the buildings in the Jabalia camp since the start of its military operations there on October 5, 2024. It indicated that what remains of the buildings has suffered severe damage, turning the camp into a "ghost town." The newspaper explained that the destruction is part of the "generals' plan," which aims to displace the Palestinian population from the north of the Gaza Strip to its south, reaching the Martyrs' Crossroads in the city of Gaza.

 Qualitative Operations by Al-Qassam in Northern Gaza

The Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), announced today, Sunday, the implementation of several qualitative operations against the occupation forces in northern Gaza. The most notable operations include:

- Targeting three Israeli troop carriers: the first with an explosive device in the Al-‘Alami area in the middle of the Jabalia camp, the second west of Beit Lahiya, and the third west of Beit Hanoun.

- Bombarding an entrenched Israeli force using an “TBG” shell, resulting in fatalities and injuries west of Jabalia.

- Sniping an Israeli officer on Abu al-Ayash Street in the middle of Jabalia.

 British MP: London's Support for the Israeli Aggression Puts It Before International Courts

British MP Mohammed Iqbal, a member of the "Independent Alliance" supporting Gaza, expressed his concerns about his country's potential summons to international courts due to its support for Israeli aggression.

Iqbal questioned during an interview with the Anadolu Agency: "How many deaths must there be for the British government to stop its direct and indirect support for Israel, which is committing war crimes?" He emphasized that what is happening constitutes genocide against the Palestinians.

He called on the British government to move beyond empty rhetoric and take serious actions, such as completely halting arms exports to the occupation, stressing the need to end complicity in crimes committed against civilians.

 Spanish PM Calls for Recognition of the State of Palestine

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez urged the international community to recognize the State of Palestine and grant it full membership in the United Nations, asserting the necessity of ending the "Israeli" occupation and achieving justice for the Palestinian people.

Sánchez made these statements during his participation in the International Socialist Conference held in the Moroccan capital, Rabat, from Friday to Sunday, according to the "Palestinian Information Center."

In his speech, Sánchez highlighted "the importance of working to achieve a just and comprehensive peace in the Middle East," stressing the need for "international efforts to address the escalating crises in many parts of the world, especially in Palestine."

He also affirmed that ending the "Israeli" occupation is a fundamental step towards empowering the Palestinian people to establish their independent state, adding: "We must put an end to the suffering of the Palestinians and eliminate the siege and restrictions that affect their daily lives."

On the 442nd day of the Israeli aggression on Gaza, the Israeli army continues to commit massacres against Palestinians and target residential buildings, resulting in an increase in the death toll and injuries amidst a worsening humanitarian catastrophe due to the imposed siege on the strip.

A statement from the Civil Defense confirmed that the occupation forces are preventing the retrieval of the bodies of martyrs throughout the Gaza Strip.

Reporters reported today, Saturday, that 7 Palestinians were martyred and others were injured due to an Israeli strike that targeted an internet point in the Beach Camp, west of Gaza City.

Additionally, several civilians were injured as a result of the occupation aircraft bombing a house near the Al-Talebin School on Al-Nafaq Street in the middle of Gaza City.

Later, our reporter indicated that two martyrs fell and another Palestinian was seriously injured due to an Israeli strike that targeted a gathering around Baghdad Mosque in the Beach Camp, west of Gaza City.

Destruction of residential buildings

Massacre in northern Gaza

This came after hours of Civil Defense teams retrieving 10 martyrs, including 7 children and a woman, due to Israeli shelling on a house belonging to the "Khalla" family, last night in the Jabalia area in northern Gaza Strip.

Our reporter mentioned that northern Gaza Strip areas have been continuously shelled amid a tight blockade that has lasted for nearly 80 consecutive days, resulting in the martyrdom of more than 5,000 Palestinians, in addition to thousands of injured.

Occupation prevents the retrieval of bodies

Meanwhile, the Civil Defense in Gaza stated today, Saturday, that the Israeli occupation continues to "kill citizens" in the strip and "leaves their bodies in the streets for stray dogs to devour, preventing their retrieval in clear violation of international law."

It clarified in a statement that the occupation army prevents Civil Defense teams and medical teams from reaching the bodies of martyrs in every area they infiltrate, claiming that these are "dangerous combat zones" and directly fires upon the teams whenever they approach those areas.

The Civil Defense confirmed that these measures taken by the Israeli occupation are "inconsistent with heavenly laws as well as international and humanitarian laws."

The statement indicated that Civil Defense teams found the bodies of martyrs to be nothing but "skeletons," and in other cases witnessed dogs devouring other bodies, in areas such as the Zaytoun neighborhood, Shuja'iyya, Tal Al-Hawa, Jabalia, Tal Al-Zaatar, Beit Hanoun, and in some eastern areas of Khan Younis and Rafah.

According to the Civil Defense, the occupation also prohibits access to the bodies of thousands of martyrs "after they have decayed under the rubble of the buildings that were destroyed above their residents," and has destroyed all heavy digging equipment and machinery.

With the Israeli occupation forces continuing their aggression against the strip, by land, sea, and air, since October 7, 2023, this has resulted in the martyrdom of 45,206 Palestinians, the majority of whom are women and children, and the injury of 107,512 others, according to the Ministry of Health in Gaza.

In conclusion, Dr. Al-Haddad stressed the importance of this initiative in enabling charitable institutions to keep pace with rapid technological advancements, ensuring the sustainability of charitable efforts and enhancing their ability to serve the community more effectively.

In a world dominated by smart data and digital networks, charitable giving has evolved from simply extending a hand to offer help into a smart contribution driven by artificial intelligence and modern technologies.

Namaa Charitable Organization is leading the digital transformation in humanitarian work, where barcodes, smart applications, artificial intelligence, and automatic tracking technologies have become essential tools in its charitable projects.

From its offices in Kuwait to remote villages around the world, charitable aid moves along a well-organized digital pathway that relies on data analysis and intelligent decision-making in real time.

This transformation has made Namaa Charitable Organization a global model in governance and transparency, where every donation, every project, and every orphan is monitored by intelligent technology that never overlooks.

Namaa Charitable Organization has transcended traditional methods, relying on advanced digital tools, making its systems resemble digital neural networks that connect donors and beneficiaries through smart tracking technologies and artificial intelligence, thus creating a technological revolution in charitable work.

Artificial Intelligence in the Cycle of Charitable Projects

Namaa Charitable Organization follows an integrated cycle for managing charitable projects, where artificial intelligence is the driving force in all its stages, from assessing needs abroad to implementing projects and tracking their impact.

Smart Needs Assessment

The journey begins through systems that sense the needs of communities in need. Reports are electronically submitted through platforms that use artificial intelligence to analyze data sent from the field. This technology allows for highly accurate identification of needs, which contributes to speeding up responses and reducing waste.

Project Planning and Automatic Marketing

Once needs are identified, artificial intelligence algorithms are employed to design the optimal project plans, providing recommendations based on analysis of previous data and best practices. Projects are then marketed through digital channels, targeting the right donors at the right time, with personalized marketing messages.

Project Implementation and Smart Sponsorship Management

During implementation, workflow is monitored using digital project management platforms, where execution reports are transformed into interactive dashboards. This enables the team to track progress and address any deviations along the way.

Regarding sponsorship projects, management is conducted through smart systems that monitor the status of orphans and beneficiaries through automatically updated reports displayed to the team and funders in real time.

Digitization in Food Basket Distribution

Smart Giving Programming:

The distribution of food baskets in Kuwait has not been far from digital innovation, as Namaa Charitable Organization has developed a digital system based on barcodes and interactive text messages, making charity easier, faster, and safer.

Smart Messages for Beneficiaries

The process begins with sending SMS messages to beneficiaries containing a registration link. Once the beneficiary enters the link, they input their basic information on a secure digital platform, where data accuracy is verified automatically.

Activation of Personal Barcodes

Upon completing their registration, beneficiaries receive a unique barcode sent directly to their phone, serving as a digital key that enables them to easily collect their food basket.

Smart Distribution System

At the distribution center, beneficiaries present their digital barcode to the relevant staff member, who uses smart barcode scanners connected to a central database system to display all relevant details about the beneficiary, including the type of designated basket and the beneficiary's needs, thereby enhancing transparency and preventing double dipping.

Orphan Care Application: Smart Management in Your Pocket 

The Orphan Care application, launched by Nama Charity, is the first of its kind in the Arab world, allowing for the management of orphanages and monitoring of orphans remotely, transforming geographical and legal barriers into mere clicks on a screen.

Remote Management of Orphans

The application enables real-time monitoring of orphans in care homes, providing a database that includes:

- Photos and names of the orphans.

- Health and educational records.

- Their memorization status of the Holy Quran.

- Their attendance and exit records at the care home.

Smart Interfaces of the Application

The application features three main interfaces: 

1. Admin Interface: Allows the management team to access all comprehensive data.
2. Supervisor Interface: Displays the status of orphans to the supervisors in charge of the care home.
3. Mother’s Interface: Enables mothers to check on the status of their children and track their details.

Soon, a donor interface will be launched, allowing donors to view the status of the orphans they sponsor while maintaining strict privacy policies.

Innovative Digital Solutions

Overcoming Geographical Barriers:

 The management can monitor orphans in inaccessible areas, such as Gaza, thanks to remote digital follow-up. 

Solutions for Legal Obstacles:

 The application has helped overcome issues related to access to legally restricted areas, such as refugee camps, through live digital monitoring. 

Reducing Daily Pressure:

 The application allows the management team to conduct daily follow-ups without the need for physical presence.

University Student Support Project: A Comprehensive Digital Educational Journey

In the journey of supporting university students, Nama Charity launched a smart initiative based on comprehensive digitization for registration, assessment, and funding, making the path to higher education easier and less complicated thanks to advanced digital infrastructure.

 Comprehensive Electronic Registration

 The process begins with the launch of an electronic link via social media platforms and SMS, allowing students to apply through an integrated electronic portal that simplifies data entry and document uploads. This step eliminates traditional paperwork, saving time and effort.

Automated Data Verification

 Once data is entered, documents enter a digital verification phase, where machine learning algorithms are applied to verify document validity and the fulfillment of required criteria. This step reduces human intervention and speeds up the decision-making process.

Interactive Messaging System

 If the student meets the criteria, an immediate SMS is sent to inform them of the acceptance of their application, providing immediate reassurance. If the criteria are not met, they receive a notification explaining the next steps.

 Digital Financial Transfer  

Once the application is accepted, the data is electronically submitted to the Ministry of Affairs platform for obtaining official approvals. After completing the processes, financial support is directly transferred to the guardian's account via electronic payment systems.

Nama Charity has transformed from a traditional charity organization into a digital humanitarian platform that relies on artificial intelligence in project implementation, barcode technology in distribution, and smart electronic portals in educational support, as well as secure transfer systems in foreign aid.

This digital leap has not merely been a regular upgrade, but a qualitative jump that places Nama Charity among the leaders of digital humanitarian work globally. 

As Nama Charity continues its digital journey, it proves to the world that giving in the digital age is smarter, faster, and more transparent.

History books narrate that Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq, may Allah be pleased with him, sent four armies to Levant, each led by a different commander and aimed at four objectives: Homs, Damascus, Jordan, and Palestine. The total number of soldiers in these armies was twenty-four thousand, which included one thousand companions, among them one hundred who were present at the Battle of Badr.

Six months had passed, and the four armies were engaged in limited clashes on various fronts without achieving any notable victory. Heraclius began to assemble a great army to fight the Muslims. When Abu Bakr learned of this, he sent a message to Khalid ibn al-Walid, instructing him to leave Iraq and head to Syria as quickly as possible. Thus, he embarked on his famous journey, which remains a military mystery to this day, traversing the desert with nine thousand fighters in eighteen days—a journey that was not known at that time for anyone to complete in less than four weeks.

Khalid arrived in the Levant and found the four armies scattered, each one in a different direction. Sharhabil's army was fighting on the walls of Busrā and was on the verge of suffering a severe defeat, so Khalid came to his aid, and Busra al-Sham was opened through a peace agreement. It became the first large city to fall into the hands of the Muslims since the beginning of the campaign in the Levant. At that point, the Romans began gathering their forces at Ajnadayn(which is a location near Jerusalem, between it and Gaza and Ashkelon), and it seemed that they were determined to expel the Muslims from the Levant, as that was the largest force they had assembled for a single battle up to that time.

Khalid called the four armies to gather in Ajnadayn, and they collectively engaged in the first decisive battle in the Levant. The number of Romans was about ninety thousand fighters, which was approximately three times the number of Muslims. However, the unity of the Muslim armies under one leadership compensated for the numerical disadvantage and equipment. Thus, the first great victory for the armies of the conquest of Greater Syria was achieved on the twenty-seventh of Jumada al-Awwal in the thirteenth year of the Hijra, followed by a major victory in Marj al-Suffar three weeks later (a wide plain extending between al-Kisweh and Ghabaghib south of Damascus), then two more significant victories in Fahl and Baysan before the end of the year. In the following year, Damascus was conquered, and then Homs was opened in the second spring of the fifteenth year.

Heraclius realized that the Levant was on the verge of permanently slipping from the control of the Romans, so he spent the following months assembling one of the largest military forces that the land of the Levant had ever seen throughout history. He gathered an army of about a quarter of a million soldiers and descended upon Yarmouk. Abu Ubayda

consulted his companions (as Umar had appointed him over the armies of the Levant after the death of Abu Bakr), and most of them advised him to withdraw from the Levant, fearing for the Muslims' survival, as they numbered thirty-three thousand, meaning the Romans were seven times the number of the Muslims. Khalid ibn al-Walid suggested fighting, and Abu Ubayda agreed with his opinion and appointed him as the commander of the battle.

Until that time, the Muslims were fighting in an organized manner, with each of the five armies being an independent entity with its own leader and formation. The armies would support each other in battle. When Khalid saw the Byzantine army formed into a solid block in a unified deployment, he addressed the leaders of the armies and said: "O leaders, is there something you would do that would glorify the religion of God and bring you no shame? For this is a day among the days of God, in which neither oppression nor arrogance should prevail. Purify your struggle and your actions for the sake of God, and do not fight against a people who are organized and deployed while you are in support and spread. For this is neither appropriate nor permissible."

They said: What is the opinion? He said: Indeed, Abu Bakr did not send us as leaders of the armies except when he believed that we would prevail. Had he known what would happen, he would have gathered you all into one army. What you are experiencing in terms of division is more harmful to the Muslims than what has befallen them and more beneficial to the polytheists than their numbers. And I have known that the world has divided you. So, take care, for each of your leaders has been placed in charge of a region, and it does not diminish him if he submits to another of the leaders, nor does it increase him if he submits to him. Indeed, the leadership of some of you over others does not diminish your standing before Allah. So come together, for these people have prepared and united for a day to come that has no equal. If we push them back to their trench today, we will continue to push them back. And if they defeat us, we will not succeed afterward.

Ahmad Adel Kamal said in his book  El Nafes "The Road to Damascus," describing the two armies on the day of Yarmouk: "The Romans marched in a formation unlike anything ever seen before, and the Muslim army marched in a formation that the Arabs had never known before. Khalid integrated the five armies into a complete union, so they became one army unrelated to the original divisions. When we examine the units of the unified army, we find that each one contains elements from the five original armies. Therefore, none of the commanders on the day of Yarmouk led their own army that was sent by Abu Bakr, may Allah be pleased with him; rather, each of the four commanders led a quarter of the unified army under the command of Khalid ibn al-Walid."

There was then a victory that was one of the greatest military victories in history, where one hundred thirty thousand of the Romans were killed, and the remaining scattered in the valleys and hills. Three thousand Muslims were martyred, and the lands of the Levant became a home for Islam until the end of time by God's command. Praise be to God, Lord of the worlds.

Moreover, Khalid's speech addressed to the commanders of armies in that time is still applicable to the princes in this time. If he were to be resurrected today and witness the condition of the faction leaders in Syria, he would not address them in any other manner.

O leaders, be mindful of God! This is a day among the days of God, where oppression and arrogance should not prevail. Purify your struggle and your work for the sake of God, and do not fight the Assad regime and its allies while you are scattered and divided. This is neither permissible nor rational in any faith or belief. Your division is more harmful to the people of Syria than the calamity that has beset them, and it serves the regime more than numbers and weapons do. The world has divided you, and each of you has been separated into factions. Your allegiance to one prince does not diminish the ranks of another, nor does it increase your own standing. The leadership of some of you over others does not detract from your standing before God, so come together and unify your forces and strengthen your ranks. Your enemies have prepared and united for a day that has no equivalent. If you overcome them today, you will remain victorious, but if you are defeated, you will never succeed again, by God’s decree.

This letter is addressed to you by Khalid ibn al-Walid from behind the veil of the centuries. So where are the listeners? And where are the responders?

On The First Anniversary, Kuwait Shines Under Sheikh Meshal’s Leadership  

 Monday marked the first anniversary of His Highness Sheikh Meshal Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah’s proclamation as the Amir of Kuwait. On December 16, 2023, following the passing of the late Amir Sheikh Nawaf Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, the Cabinet announced Sheikh Meshal’s appointment as Amir in accordance with the Constitution and Article 4 of the Succession Law. Sheikh Meshal formally took the constitutional oath on December 20, 2023, becoming Kuwait’s 17th Amir.

Career of leadership and service

Born in 1940, Sheikh Meshal is the seventh son of the late Sheikh Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, Kuwait’s 10th ruler. He was educated from an early age within the House of Al-Sabah, where his family played a pivotal role in shaping his early education. His parents and other senior family members took part in teaching him the basics of reading and writing before he went on to attend Al-Mubarakiya School, Kuwait’s first school. This strong foundation in education, fostered by his family’s guidance, set the stage for his future achievements.

Sheikh Meshal continued his studies in the United Kingdom, where he graduated from Hendon Police College in 1960. Upon returning to Kuwait, he joined the newly-established Ministry of the Interior, rising through the ranks and becoming a key figure in developing Kuwait’s security infrastructure. In 1987, he was appointed to the Public Inspection Department, where he served in various leadership roles for nearly 20 years.

In 2004, Sheikh Meshal was appointed Deputy Chief of the National Guard, overseeing major reforms to enhance Kuwait’s national security. In 2020, he was appointed Crown Prince, and on December 16, 2023, he succeeded Sheikh Nawaf as Amir.

Key achievements

Over the past year, Sheikh Meshal’s leadership has focused on both domestic development and regional cooperation. In May 2024, Sheikh Meshal made the historic decision to dissolve parliament and temporarily suspend certain articles of the constitution to reassess the country’s democratic process. Locally, he has championed several initiatives, including the inauguration of Abdullah Al-Salem University and Sabah Al-Salem University City. He also attended several award ceremonies, honoring researchers and teachers, including the KFAS awards ceremony held in December.

In his efforts to strengthen regional ties, Sheikh Meshal has led official visits to Saudi Arabia, Oman, Bahrain, Qatar, and the UAE. Under his leadership, Kuwait hosted the 45th GCC Summit on December 1, 2024, reinforcing cooperation among Gulf nations and addressing critical regional challenges. His advocacy for regional unity is also reflected in his support for the Palestinian cause and his commitment to protecting Arab sovereignty.

Sheikh Meshal’s international diplomacy has been marked by visits to Turkey, where he signed six agreements, and meetings with global leaders such as UN Secretary-General António Guterres and European Council President Charles Michel. These visits underscore his efforts to promote Kuwait’s global presence and work towards peaceful resolutions to international issues.

As Kuwait celebrates His Highness Sheikh Meshal’s first anniversary as Amir, the nation remains on a path of growth and development. His Highness’s leadership has ensured that Kuwait continues to thrive regionally and internationally, building on the legacy of past rulers while shaping a prosperous future for the people of Kuwait. — KUNA

 Digitization in Namaa Charitable Organization: AI Redefines Humanitarian Work

In a world dominated by smart data and digital networks, charitable giving has evolved from simply extending a hand to offer help into a smart contribution driven by artificial intelligence and modern technologies.

Namaa Charitable Organization is leading the digital transformation in humanitarian work, where barcodes, smart applications, artificial intelligence, and automatic tracking technologies have become essential tools in its charitable projects.

From its offices in Kuwait to remote villages around the world, charitable aid moves along a well-organized digital pathway that relies on data analysis and intelligent decision-making in real time.

This transformation has made Namaa Charitable Organization a global model in governance and transparency, where every donation, every project, and every orphan is monitored by intelligent technology that never overlooks.

Namaa Charitable Organization has transcended traditional methods, relying on advanced digital tools, making its systems resemble digital neural networks that connect donors and beneficiaries through smart tracking technologies and artificial intelligence, thus creating a technological revolution in charitable work.

Artificial Intelligence in the Cycle of Charitable Projects

Namaa Charitable Organization follows an integrated cycle for managing charitable projects, where artificial intelligence is the driving force in all its stages, from assessing needs abroad to implementing projects and tracking their impact.

Smart Needs Assessment

The journey begins through systems that sense the needs of communities in need. Reports are electronically submitted through platforms that use artificial intelligence to analyze data sent from the field. This technology allows for highly accurate identification of needs, which contributes to speeding up responses and reducing waste.

Project Planning and Automatic Marketing

Once needs are identified, artificial intelligence algorithms are employed to design the optimal project plans, providing recommendations based on analysis of previous data and best practices. Projects are then marketed through digital channels, targeting the right donors at the right time, with personalized marketing messages.

Project Implementation and Smart Sponsorship Management

During implementation, workflow is monitored using digital project management platforms, where execution reports are transformed into interactive dashboards. This enables the team to track progress and address any deviations along the way.

Regarding sponsorship projects, management is conducted through smart systems that monitor the status of orphans and beneficiaries through automatically updated reports displayed to the team and funders in real time.

Digitization in Food Basket Distribution

Smart Giving Programming:

The distribution of food baskets in Kuwait has not been far from digital innovation, as Namaa Charitable Organization has developed a digital system based on barcodes and interactive text messages, making charity easier, faster, and safer.

Smart Messages for Beneficiaries

The process begins with sending SMS messages to beneficiaries containing a registration link. Once the beneficiary enters the link, they input their basic information on a secure digital platform, where data accuracy is verified automatically.

Activation of Personal Barcodes

Upon completing their registration, beneficiaries receive a unique barcode sent directly to their phone, serving as a digital key that enables them to easily collect their food basket.

Smart Distribution System

At the distribution center, beneficiaries present their digital barcode to the relevant staff member, who uses smart barcode scanners connected to a central database system to display all relevant details about the beneficiary, including the type of designated basket and the beneficiary's needs, thereby enhancing transparency and preventing double dipping.

Orphan Care Application: Smart Management in Your Pocket 

The Orphan Care application, launched by Nama Charity, is the first of its kind in the Arab world, allowing for the management of orphanages and monitoring of orphans remotely, transforming geographical and legal barriers into mere clicks on a screen.

Remote Management of Orphans

The application enables real-time monitoring of orphans in care homes, providing a database that includes:

- Photos and names of the orphans.

- Health and educational records.

- Their memorization status of the Holy Quran.

- Their attendance and exit records at the care home.

Smart Interfaces of the Application

The application features three main interfaces: 

1. Admin Interface: Allows the management team to access all comprehensive data.
2. Supervisor Interface: Displays the status of orphans to the supervisors in charge of the care home.
3. Mother’s Interface: This enables mothers to check on the status of their children and track their details.

Soon, a donor interface will be launched, allowing donors to view the status of the orphans they sponsor while maintaining strict privacy policies.

Innovative Digital Solutions

Overcoming Geographical Barriers

 The management can monitor orphans in inaccessible areas, such as Gaza, thanks to remote digital follow-up. 

**Solutions for Legal Obstacles**: The application has helped overcome issues related to access to legally restricted areas, such as refugee camps, through live digital monitoring. 

**Reducing Daily Pressure**: The application allows the management team to conduct daily follow-ups without the need for physical presence.

University Student Support Project: A Comprehensive Digital Educational Journey

In the journey of supporting university students, Nama Charity launched a smart initiative based on comprehensive digitization for registration, assessment, and funding, making the path to higher education easier and less complicated thanks to advanced digital infrastructure.

Comprehensive Electronic Registration:

The process begins with the launch of an electronic link via social media platforms and SMS, allowing students to apply through an integrated electronic portal that simplifies data entry and document uploads. This step eliminates traditional paperwork, saving time and effort.

Automated Data Verification

 Once data is entered, documents enter a digital verification phase, where machine learning algorithms are applied to verify document validity and the fulfillment of required criteria. This step reduces human intervention and speeds up the decision-making process.

Interactive Messaging System

 If the student meets the criteria, an immediate SMS is sent to inform them of the acceptance of their application, providing immediate reassurance. If the criteria are not met, they receive a notification explaining the next steps.

 Digital Financial Transfer  

Once the application is accepted, the data is electronically submitted to the Ministry of Affairs platform for obtaining official approvals. After completing the processes, financial support is directly transferred to the guardian's account via electronic payment systems.

Nama Charity has transformed from a traditional charity organization into a digital humanitarian platform that relies on artificial intelligence in project implementation, barcode technology in distribution, and smart electronic portals in educational support, as well as secure transfer systems in foreign aid.

This digital leap has not merely been a regular upgrade, but a qualitative jump that places Nama Charity among the leaders of digital humanitarian work globally. 

As Nama Charity continues its digital journey, it proves to the world that giving in the digital age is smarter, faster, and more transparent.
