In one of the clips on his official Instagram, the scholar born and raised in Zimbabwe can be seen visiting a flood-affected area of Sindh, Jhuddo.

Pakistan needs us!! donate a tent! give comfort to a family! £100 per tent! please do whatever you can with any reliable charity or partner for those affected. we will have to assist for the next few years.”
