Building Masjids
You can give on behalf of a deceased loved one, as they will continue to gain reward from it for as long as people benefit from it.
Is building a masjid considered Sadaqah Jariyah?
Yes, building a masjid is considered Sadaqah Jariyah because it provides ongoing benefits to the community. Every prayer, Quran class, and act of worship performed within the masjid continues to bring rewards to the donor, even after they have passed away. This lasting impact makes it one of the most rewarding forms of charity in Islam.
Sadaqah Jariyah, often referred to as "continuous charity," is an act of giving that provides ongoing benefits to others and rewards to the donor. Unlike regular Sadaqah, which is a one-time act of charity, Sadaqah Jariyah continues to benefit others and generates spiritual rewards for the giver for as long as the charity continues to be of service.

Frequently Asked Questions
Confused about donating? Take a look at our frequently asked questions below.
How will my donation be used for the masjid project?
Your donation will directly fund the construction and development of the masjid, which will serve as a space for daily prayers, Quran classes, and community activities. Each donation helps bring this vital project to life and strengthens the community it serves.
Will I receive updates on the progress of the masjid?
Donors who contribute the full amount needed to build the masjid will receive personalised video updates, including progress within 3-4 months and a final report upon completion. While smaller donations are appreciated, they do not include personalised updates.
Can I dedicate my donation in someone's name?
Yes, but only donors who fully fund the entire masjid can have a name or multiple names engraved on a plaque within the masjid. This is a special way to commemorate your generous contribution to this important cause.
Is there a minimum amount I need to donate?
There is no minimum donation, and every contribution makes a difference. However, only those who donate the full amount required to fund the masjid will receive personalised updates and the opportunity to add a name to the masjid plaque.
What happens with my small contribution?
Small donations help us reach the full amount needed to build a masjid. Once reached, Global Helping Hands will build the masjid under the name “Fael Khair,” symbolising contributions from many donors like you.
Can I help if I can’t fund a full masjid?
Yes! You can create a fundraising page on our website and invite friends and family to contribute. Visit Start Fundraising to get started.
What does "Fael Khair" mean?
“Fael Khair” means “doer of good” and is the name given to masjids built through collective donations, representing the kindness and unity of all contributors.
Will I be recognised for my small donation?
While only full donors have names engraved, “Fael Khair” masjids represent the combined efforts of many, including your generous contribution.
The Importance and Rewards of Sadaqah Jariyah
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ emphasized the significance of Sadaqah Jariyah in numerous Hadiths. One famous Hadith states, “When a man dies, his deeds come to an end except for three things: Sadaqah Jariyah, knowledge which is beneficial, or a virtuous descendant who prays for him” (Sahih Muslim).
This highlights the enduring impact and reward of continuous charity, which benefits both the donor and the recipients long after the charity has been given.
Sadaqah Jariyah offers perpetual rewards because the good deeds generated by the charity continue to accumulate even after the donor's death. This makes it a powerful way to invest in your Hereafter, ensuring that your legacy of kindness and generosity continues to bring blessings to you and those in need.
