The Month of Mercy, Generosity, and Reward
Ramadan is a time of immense blessings, spiritual renewal, and boundless generosity. It is a sacred month when our hearts soften, our souls are purified, and our deeds are multiplied. In this blessed season, one act stands out for its power to bring relief to others and reward to ourselves — Sadaqah, the voluntary act of charity that connects us deeply to Allah (SWT) and to humanity.
In the valleys of Kashmir, where harsh winters, poverty, and decades of conflict have left deep scars, Sadaqah becomes more than just an act of giving. It becomes a lifeline. Every donation from our brothers and sisters in the UK helps restore dignity, provide food, rebuild homes, and remind struggling families that they are not forgotten.
The Power of Sadaqah in Ramadan
Giving Sadaqah in Ramadan holds unparalleled spiritual significance. It is the month of mercy when every act of goodness carries multiplied rewards. The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) said:
“The believer’s shade on the Day of Resurrection will be his charity.” (Al-Tirmidhi)
Sadaqah is not just financial assistance. It is a spiritual shield. It protects us from calamities, purifies our wealth, and earns Allah’s mercy. The Prophet (ﷺ) also said:
“Give charity without delay, for it stands in the way of calamity.” (Al-Tirmidhi)
During Ramadan, our generosity becomes an act of worship. Every coin, every meal, every smile given for the sake of Allah is a seed planted for eternal reward.
Why Give Sadaqah Online This Ramadan?
In our modern world, technology has made giving easier and more consistent. Through online Sadaqah donations, we can fulfil our charitable duties quickly and securely, ensuring our blessings never pause. Kashmir Welfare Foundation offers simple online options to give daily, weekly, or automatically throughout the holy month.
Automate Good Deeds During the Last 10 Nights
The last ten nights of Ramadan hold immense power — among them lies Laylat al-Qadr (The Night of Decree), a night better than a thousand months. Allah (SWT) tells us in the Qur’an:
“The Night of Decree is better than a thousand months.” (Qur’an, 97:3)
By scheduling automated donations, you ensure your Sadaqah reaches someone in need on each of these sacred nights — maximising your chances of receiving the reward of Laylat al-Qadr.
Imagine feeding a fasting child, providing water to a thirsty family, or giving a widow warmth on that blessed night. What greater investment could there be for your Hereafter?

Sadaqah in Action: Stories from Kashmir
In a small village near Muzaffarabad, a widow named Fatima struggles to provide for her three children. Her husband was lost to conflict years ago. Winters are cold, and food is scarce. Through Sadaqah given by donors in the UK, Kashmir Welfare Foundation provided Fatima’s family with food packs and winter essentials.
When we visited, her eldest son, barely ten, smiled shyly and said, “Now my mother doesn’t cry at night anymore.”
This is what your Sadaqah does. It doesn’t just feed — it heals. It restores dignity and brings light to homes shadowed by hardship.
Every donation you make reaches families like Fatima’s through our verified field teams across Dadyal, Mirpur, Kotli, Neelum Valley, and beyond.
Different Forms of Sadaqah: Every Act Counts
Sadaqah is beautifully diverse. Every act of kindness, no matter how small, is rewarded.
1. Feeding the Fasting
The Prophet (ﷺ) said:
“Whoever gives food for a fasting person to break his fast, he will have a reward like theirs, without that detracting from their reward in the slightest.” (Al-Tirmidhi)
Your donation can provide Iftar meals through our Meals of Mercy Campaign — giving warmth and nourishment to those who fast with nothing to break it.
2. Supporting Orphans and Widows
“The one who cares for an orphan and myself will be together in Paradise like this,” said the Prophet (ﷺ), holding his fingers close together. (Al-Bukhari)
By donating to our Widows Relief and Sponsor an Orphan projects, you can change the course of a child’s life.
3. Providing Clean Water
A well is not just water — it is hope. Through our Water Projects, Sadaqah transforms barren land into thriving communities, ensuring generations benefit from your charity.
4. Offering a Helping Hand
Even non-monetary acts like visiting the sick, smiling, or encouraging others to give are forms of Sadaqah. The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Your smile for your brother is charity.” (Al-Tirmidhi)
Sadaqah Jariyah: The Charity That Never Ends
While all charity is blessed, Sadaqah Jariyah (continuous charity) offers rewards that never fade. It is the gift that continues to benefit others — and you — long after you’re gone.
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: “When a person dies, all their deeds come to an end except three: a continuing charity, beneficial knowledge, or a righteous child who prays for them.” (Muslim)
Examples of Sadaqah Jariyah:
- Building wells that provide water for decades
- Funding education that lifts families out of poverty
- Supporting medical care that saves countless lives
Through your Sadaqah Jariyah with Kashmir Welfare Foundation, you’re not just giving charity — you’re creating a legacy.
From the UK to Kashmir: The Donor’s Reward
For the British Muslim community, Ramadan is more than a month of fasting — it is a time of reflection and reconnection. The link between the UK and Kashmir runs deep, and every Sadaqah donation strengthens that bond.
As Abdul Basit, a trustee of Kashmir Welfare Foundation, shared:
“When we give from the UK, we’re not just sending money — we’re sending love, compassion, and solidarity. Every donation reminds our people in Kashmir that they are not alone.”
Through your generosity, you become a lifeline for the needy and a source of mercy in a world that desperately needs it.
