Give Sadaqah Jariyah and Earn Ongoing Rewards

Sadaqah Jariyah is one of the greatest acts of charity in Islam due to its long-lasting reward that continues after the donation has been made. Unlike a one-off giving, Sadaqah Jariyah has the means to provide a benefit to many over a long period of time, allowing the one who gives to receive reward from Allah for as long as someone is to benefit from it.

We here at Al-Qulub Trust try to make it easy for you to give Sadaqah Jariyah through our projects that improve lives, and support vulnerable communities. Whether you choose to fund clean water, or support any of our other sustainable plans, your donation can become a source of continuous blessings for yourself in this life and the Hereafter.

The Prophet Muhammad (Peace be Upon Him) has said: “When a person dies, all their deeds come to an end except three: ongoing charity (Sadaqah Jariyah), beneficial knowledge, or a righteous child who prays for them.”

Sahih Muslim

What is Sadaqah Jariyah?

The words Sadaqah Jariyah in Arabic translate to ongoing charity, referring to any act that benefits people over time, even after the person who gives has passed away.

Allah also says in the Quran, “The example of those who spend their wealth in the way of Allah is like that of a grain which grows seven ears; in every ear are one hundred grains. And Allah multiplies for whom He wills.” [Quran 2:261]

Allah has the means to multiply the rewards of sincere charity, and what better way to gain it than by giving to a project that can benefit a community for generations to come.

Sadaqah Jariyah for Deceased

Many Muslims choose to give Sadaqah Jariyah for deceased loved ones as a way to honour their memory. When you donate on behalf of a loved one, you’re asking Allah to grant them ongoing reward.

Supporting projects that can bring benefit to those in need over a long period of time can allow the reward to reach the deceased each time someone is to benefit from the donation, becoming a meaningful gift to the one who is no longer with you.

The Prophet Muhammad (Peace be Upon Him) was once asked, “Which charity is best?” to which he replied, “Providing water.”

Sunan Ibn Majah

There is no single best form of Sadaqah Jariyah as every act of ongoing charity carries its own great reward. Any project that continues to benefit people over a long period of time is a great option to donate to.

Yes. Many scholars agree amongst each other that Sadaqah Jariyah for deceased loved ones is a rewarding act. Donating on their behalf and asking Allah to grant them the reward is a meaningful way to honour their memory and to benefit them in the Hereafter.

When you give Sadaqah Jariyah, your donation can continue to benefit others over a long period of time. As long as people continue to benefit from the project that you supported, you may continue to receive the reward for it from Allah, making it one of the most valued acts of charity a Muslim can perform.

Sadaqah Jariyah Examples That Change Lives

There are many Sadaqah Jariyah examples that have provided communities with long-lasting benefits. An example of this would be to build a water system for a community who has no access to clean water, supporting the education of a child whose carer can’t afford it, or helping a family to become self-sufficient.

At Al-Qulub Trust, we focus on projects that can make a long-term impact, with our aim to help those most in need. Through your donations, we are able to work together to provide hope and dignity to those in need and deliver opportunities to families that face hardship daily.

Water Pump Sadaqah Jariyah

Our water pump Sadaqah Jariyah project is in place to give families access to safe and clean water for drinking, cooking, washing, and farming. Access to clean water can improve health and most importantly reduces disease from spreading, which can save countless lives.

Each time someone is to drink from the pump that you helped construct, you can continue to receive the reward for it by the will of Allah.
