Story
On the authority of Sa‘d ibn ’Ubadah (ra) who said, 'I asked, “O Messenger of Allah! Which charity is best?” He [saw] replied, “Providing water”' (Ibn Majah)
Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un
We are raising money to help fund 2 water wells so it can be a means of Sadaqah Jariyah for our late grandad. He was an incredibly generous man whose sudden loss has been felt by everyone who had the pleasure of knowing him; he was caring and funny, and had a beautiful manner towards everyone, young and old.
One well will serve around 35 families, providing access to clean water for drinking, washing and livestock; it will be built wherever the need is greatest, In Shaa Allah.
May Allah grant our grandad Jannat-ul-Firdous, and accept this charity from him and us. Ameen
Those who spend their wealth in charity day and night, secretly and openly—their reward is with their Lord, and there will be no fear for them, nor will they grieve. [Al-Quran 2:274]
