2020 – Week 2 Water Projects

2020 – Week 2 Water Projects

As-Sadaqah Week 2. Sadaqah Jariya Water Projects

The Messenger (saw) was asked, “Which charity is best?” He replied, “[Providing] water”’. [Abu Dawud]

Salaams week 2 money has been collected. ALHAMDULILLAH Altogether we raised £2190. With your £10 you have donated towards the following:

ONE NATION
Well in India £600
Handpump in Burma £300
Handpump in Indonesia £200
Handpump in India £150
2 x £150 Water tanks in Yemen £300

MUSLIM HANDS
Tube well Bangladesh £190
Tube well Pakistan £190

INTERPAL
10 x £20 Public water tank refills = £200
6 x £10 family water tank refills = £60

Water is a blessing from Allah (swt) that we often take for granted. The gift of water saves lives. Allah says in the Qur’an, ‘And whoever saves one [a life] – it is as if he had saved all of mankind’. (Qur’an, 5:32) Imagine this – every single time the clean water you donated saves someone’s life, it is as if you have saved all of mankind!

Water is the ultimate Sadaqah Jariyah chain reaction. Clean water leads to healthy livestock, healthy people, more children in school, more women in jobs, improved agriculture and sustainable livelihoods. By donating towards water you will get the reward for every single one of these things, in sha’ Allah.

Ramadan is a time when we remember our loved ones who have passed away, and many of us want to give Sadaqah Jariyah in their name during this blessed month. The Prophet (saw) recommended water as the best charity to give in someone’s name. Every time someone breaks their fast using this water; every time someone wears the clothes washed with that water; every time someone eats a vegetable grown from that water – both of you will be rewarded for that In Sha Allah.

May Allah accept this from us and on behalf of those who we intended it for.
