About this appeal

Our aim is to give each family 1 male goat and 4 female goats; this will cost £250.

Malawi being an agriculture-dependent country, many people do better in farming, both crops and animals. In regards to animal farming, we can support a number of families with sheeps or goats, which they can keep for milk, and once the animals grow in number, they can breed and be sold for money which can then support the family to develop themselves further.

They can also benefit from the milk from the goats for domestic use and sell the excess milk to other families and villages. Global Helping Hands can also be a well-established partner to buy the sheep and goats they keep, as we use these for aqeeqa programmes or even Qurbani season; hence, people will have a ready and steady means of income. We invest and support back into the communities we serve.

Giving to the establishment of a goat farm will help local people and families have stable incomes and break the cycle of poverty.

What is Sadaqah Jariyah?

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. Examples of Sadaqah Jariyah include building a school, digging a well, planting a tree, or providing educational materials that people will use for years to come.

Frequently Asked Questions

Confused about donating? Take a look at our frequently asked questions below.

What is Sadaqah Jariyah?

Sadaqah Jariyah refers to a form of continuous charity in Islam. Unlike regular Sadaqah, which is a one-time act of giving, Sadaqah Jariyah continues to benefit others long after the donation is made, providing ongoing rewards to the giver even after their death.

How does Sadaqah Jariyah differ from regular Sadaqah?

Regular Sadaqah is a voluntary act of charity that benefits the recipient immediately. In contrast, Sadaqah Jariyah is a long-lasting charity that provides continuous benefits over time, such as building a school, digging a well, or planting trees.

What are examples of Sadaqah Jariyah?

Examples of Sadaqah Jariyah include building mosques, schools, hospitals, providing clean water by digging wells, planting trees, and creating educational resources. These acts continue to benefit people for years, ensuring ongoing rewards for the donor.

Why is Sadaqah Jariyah important in Islam?

Sadaqah Jariyah is highly valued in Islam because it offers perpetual rewards. As long as the charitable act continues to benefit others, the giver earns blessings, even after they have passed away, which can be particularly significant for their afterlife.

Who can benefit from Sadaqah Jariyah?

Sadaqah Jariyah benefits communities at large. For instance, a school built as Sadaqah Jariyah educates generations of students, a well provides water to countless people, and a mosque serves as a place of worship for many.

Can I give Sadaqah Jariyah on behalf of someone else?

Yes, Sadaqah Jariyah can be given on behalf of others, such as deceased relatives or friends. This act can help earn continuous rewards for the deceased and contribute to their good deeds in the afterlife.

Is there a specific time to give Sadaqah Jariyah?

Sadaqah Jariyah can be given at any time. There is no specific time requirement, and it is encouraged to give whenever you have the means to do so, ensuring ongoing benefits for the community and continuous rewards for the donor.

What are the long-term benefits of Sadaqah Jariyah?

The long-term benefits of Sadaqah Jariyah include ongoing community support, education, health improvements, and access to essential resources. For the donor, the key benefit is the perpetual accumulation of rewards in both this life and the hereafter.
