In life, we seek ways to leave a lasting impact—something that will outlive us and continue to bring goodness even after we are gone. Islam provides us with a profound way to do this: Sadaqah Jariyah—ongoing charity that brings continuous rewards.
The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said:
“When a person dies, their deeds come to an end, except for three: ongoing charity (Sadaqah Jariyah), knowledge that is benefited from, and a righteous child who prays for them.” (Sahih Muslim)
This means that even after we depart from this world, we can continue to receive blessings by giving to causes that provide lasting benefit.
What is Sadaqah Jariyah?
Sadaqah Jariyah is any charitable act that continues to provide benefit for people over time. Unlike one-time charity, which helps in the moment, Sadaqah Jariyah offers enduring benefits, allowing you to accumulate rewards for as long as people continue to benefit from it.
Examples of Sadaqah Jariyah include:
- Building water wells that provide clean drinking water for years.
- Supporting schools that educate generations of children.
- Planting olive trees that provide sustenance and income to families.
- Sponsoring orphans, ensuring they receive long-term care and education.
- Funding mobile hospitals and healthcare facilities to serve those in need.
- Establishing mosques, where prayers will be offered for generations.
Each of these acts is a gift that keeps on giving—continuing to serve communities and bringing you immense rewards in this life and the Hereafter.
The Transformative Power of Sadaqah Jariyah
When you give Sadaqah Jariyah, you are not just donating—you are changing lives. Imagine providing a water source in a village where people previously had to walk miles for clean water. Every sip they take will be a source of reward for you.
Or picture a child receiving an education because you helped build a school. Every letter they learn, every skill they develop, and every good deed they do will be part of your legacy.
Sadaqah Jariyah transforms entire communities by:
- Breaking the cycle of poverty by providing people with sustainable income sources.
- Empowering orphans and widows with education and skills training.
- Ensuring access to healthcare, reducing suffering and saving lives.
- Revitalizing communities, making them stronger and self-sufficient.
Maximise Your Rewards During Ramadan
Ramadan is the best time to give Sadaqah Jariyah. The Prophet (PBUH) was the most generous during this month, and every good deed is multiplied by at least 70 times. Imagine the immense blessings of giving Sadaqah Jariyah in this sacred month!
The Night of Power (Laylatul Qadr), found in the last ten nights of Ramadan, is better than a thousand months. If your donation falls on this night, it will be as if you gave charity for over 83 years!
