My story

 

Bismillah, Wa Salaatu Wa Salaamu Ala Rasulillah

As-Salaamu 'Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu

Jazakh’Allahu Khairan for visiting this page, which has been set up to raise funds in support of The Muslim Hands Orphans’ Village Project, currently under construction in the state of Wazirabad, North Pakistan.

The project aims to provide 500 needy orphans with world class education facilities through the MH School of Excellence, as well as loving homes where they will be accommodated and cared for as part of a wider family. The complex will also be equipped with a library, a large mosque and a medical dispensary. I have chosen to fundraise for the library in sha Allah, the cost of which is £9,000.This includes construction, internal fit out (shelves and desks) as well as books and five library computers.

In supporting this project, please remember that your donation is not merely a one-off payment of charity - it will act as a sadaqah jaariyah (continuous charity) for you insha'Allah. Every book opened, every page read, every piece of knowledge gained will bear fruits for you in your grave long after the memory of ever having donated has passed.In addition to this, not only will you receive the reward of educating every orphan who uses the facility, you will also draw benefit from their children, their grandchildren and every later generation which is touched by the knowledge they have gained through your generosity – walhamdullillah.

Therefore, please take the opportunity to donate right now before the illusion of loss of wealth takes hold and you are prevented from adding to your account of good deeds. We have a promise from our Creator that spending in His way will never decrease our wealth – in fact quite the opposite is true:

‘The likeness of those who spend their wealth in the way of Allah is that of a grain of corn: it grows seven ears, and each ear has a hundred grains. Allah gives manifold increase to whom He pleases: and Allah is sufficient for His creatures' needs and He knows all things.’ (Surah Al Baqarah - 2:261)

So, no matter how much (or little) you give, Allah will multiply it many times over and you will never lose. Keep your intentions pure and proceed to donate whatever you can – may Allah accept it from you, ameen.

Finally, please make du’a for the success of the project and please also remember me in your du’as.

All praise is due to Allah, the Creator of all, the Giver of everything. May He forgive us our sins, grant us ease in our graves, and reunite us amongst the highest station of Paradise, Ameen.

Jazakh’Allahu Khairan
