Story
When asked which charity is best, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ replied, “{Providing} water.” (Abu Dawood)
For JUST £1000, you can provide up to 1000 people with clean and safe water to transform their health and social prospects!
We hope this will be a Saqaqah Jaariyah for us when we pass away because the Prophet ﷺ said:
“Verily, among the good deeds that will join a believer after his death are these: knowledge which he taught and spread, a righteous child he leaves behind, a copy of the Qur'an he leaves for inheritance, a mosque he has built, a house he built for travellers, a well he has dug, and charity distributed from his wealth while he was alive and well. These deeds will join him after his death.” [Ibn Mājah 242; Hasan]
Make that intention and donate whatever you can!
