Sadaqah Jariyah – A merciful gift with ongoing rewards

“When a person dies, his deeds come to an end, except for three: ongoing charity (Sadaqah Jariyah), knowledge that is benefited from, and a righteous child who prays for him.” (Sahih Muslim)

£15 – provides an olive tree in Palestine

£60 – provides a person with tools, seeds, and training to establish a kitchen garden

£125 – provides a woman with a sewing machine and training to give her a new livelihood

£800 – provides a water well in Pakistan

Giving Sadaqah Jariyah is one of the most beautiful ways to give charity. By definition, this ongoing charity provides lasting benefits to the person who receives it for years to come. This means that the person who gives Sadaqah Jariyah receives blessings for as long as their donation continues to benefit – even if they have passed away. That’s why we consider it one of the most merciful charities of Islam.

Our Sadaqah Jariyah projects are carefully curated – each on is transformative and impactful, empowering a person or community to lift themselves out of poverty. Designed with the help of agricultural or water engineers, livelihood specialists and architects, these projects build skills and resources and help to slowly and concretely transform communities.

How does Sadaqah Jariyah change lives?

Sadaqah Jariyah offers great rewards in Islam, a recognition of the transformative effect of continuous care. From providing struggling parents with sustainable livelihoods through initiatives like honey bee farms, olive farming, or tailoring, to empowering communities with solar-powered wells and water filtration systems, or rebuilding schools and hospitals for the most vulnerable, the impact you can make to families and communities are limitless.

With your support, our projects empower people with the means to support themselves, creating self-sustaining, resilient communities that can withstand adversity.

Be a source of mercy for a family or community and reap multiplied ongoing blessings.
