Assalamualaikum

Abu Hurairah narrated that Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said,

“When a man dies, his good deeds come to an end except three: ongoing charity, beneficial knowledge, and righteous offspring who will pray for him.” (Muslim)

Commenting on this hadith, Imam An-Nawawi (may Allah have mercy on him) said,

“The scholars said, the meaning of this hadith is that the deeds of the deceased come to an end as soon as he or she dies, and the renewal of reward ceases for him or her, except in these three cases because he or she is the cause of them:

• his or her offspring is counted among his or her earnings,
• the knowledge that he or she leaves behind through teaching or writing,
• ongoing charity, i.e., a waqf (Islamic endowment).”

Our Nani Baji has left this world, and we pray that Allah SWT grants him the highest ranks in paradise.  We can make dua for him, spread any beneficial knowledge that he shared with you and give Sadaqah Jariyah on his behalf.

The Prophet (AS) said that ‘The best form of charity is to give someone water (to drink).’ (Ibn Majah)

Your donation of the water well will be helping 100s of families access to clean water.

Get reward as long as someone is benefitting from the water source.

The reason I have selected justgiving is that you can donate anonymously, so give as much or as little as you can confidentially.

I have personally used SMT before, and they are an honest and reliable charity.  They provide a regular status update and photographs of the water well / pump when complete.  You can see the SMT profile below.

It costs £1,000 for a deep water well in Pakistan, and £300 for a hand pump in the refugee camp in Rohingya.

I will ask SMT to split the total donations over the two causes and I will top up any amount required so we have complete donations for the projects.

Jazakallah.

Since 2004, Save the Mothers Trusts volunteers have worked tirelessly in constructing wells and hand pumps in Pakistan and Africa.What We Did: In Africa (Ghana, Ivory Coast, Mali and Malawi) since 2004 100s of water wells have been excavated providing clean water to thousands of households for the people, livestock and crops. Clean water is an essential commodity which will reduce the suffering of the sick and poor and more importantly save the lives of many people who may otherwise be at risk of developing long-term and sometimes fatal diseases. With your generosity and compassion, we will strive to continue our successful mission in the regions by promoting the benefits of self-sufficiency and independence.SMTs water & sanitation activities include: Building water supply systems in deprived areas Excavating and restoring wells Implementing water purification projects Undertaking integrated sanitation programmes Community mobilisation and awareness programmes
