Major Giving

'The best charity is giving water to drink.'

[Ahmad]

Every year, over 3.4 million people die from water-related illnesses (WHO). By giving your Zakat or Sadaqah to one of our Major Giving water projects, you can deliver safe, sustainable water to thousands of people in need.

These large-scale, specialised projects serve communities facing severe water shortages and include solar-powered boreholes, which harness the sun’s energy to draw clean water from deep underground, as well as water filtration plants that make previously unsafe water suitable for daily use.

The Messenger of Allah (saw) said, 'Whoever builds a masjid for the sake of Allah, Allah will build for him a house in Paradise.'

[Bukhari]

A masjid lies at the heart of every Muslim community. It is a place of prayer and reflection, as well as a centre for learning, guidance and vital community services. Through the masjid, generations are nurtured in faith, knowledge and moral values.

By building a masjid, you earn the reward of providing a House of Allah (swt), while your Sadaqah Jariyah continues to benefit worshippers for generations to come, in sha Allah.

Education unlocks opportunity. It is a pathway out of poverty, a driver of social change, and essential to the wellbeing and development of every child. That is why education lies at the heart of our work.

In many rural communities, children are unable to attend school simply because facilities are too far away - denying them the chance to learn, grow, and build a better future.

By constructing schools or classrooms, you can help provide education to orphans and vulnerable children in areas where it is needed most. These schools are designed to serve communities for generations. Each classroom includes a commemorative plaque, making this a powerful Sadaqah Jariyah that continues to benefit children long into the future.

The Prophet (saw) said: 'The believers, in their mutual kindness, compassion and mercy, are like one body. When one part suffers, the whole body responds with sleeplessness and fever.'

[Bukhari]

Across many developing countries, millions suffer from preventable and treatable illnesses caused by unsafe water, poor sanitation, hunger and malnutrition. Without access to basic healthcare, ill health becomes a barrier to education, work and family stability.

By giving your Zakat or Sadaqah to one of our Major Giving health projects, you can help restore health, dignity and hope to communities in need.

Across the developing world, many people have the skills and determination to earn a living, but lack the opportunity to put those skills into practice. Our Livelihood projects bridge that gap by responding directly to the needs of the communities we serve.

By giving your Zakat or Sadaqah, you can empower people with the skills and resources they need to lift themselves out of poverty. From training widows in tailoring, to providing livestock for farmers and supporting female-headed households set up businesses, your support creates sustainable change.
