Sadaqa Jariyah
Donate Now
Those who spend their wealth in God’s way by night and by day, secretly and publicly – they will
have their reward with their Lord and no fear will there be upon them, nor will they grieve.
“Sadaqa Jariya” literally translates as “flowing/ongoing charity” from Arabic. It is one of the most powerful ways of giving in Islam since the benefits of this type of charity are reaped not just by the recipient, but also by the giver. At Al-Ayn, we use it to create long-lasting change in the lives of orphaned children.
We start here and now—the first step is to provide children with the psychological rehabilitation they so desperately need in the aftermath of war.
Then, we focus on their future.
Through creating a safe space for learning, we enable children to gain valuable life skills that can open doors to employment in the future and a greater quality of life, in general. The benefits of giving Sadaqa Jariya are profound: not just multiple rewards for one single act of charity, but rewards that extend to our time in the Hereafter.
Sadaqa Jariya Projects
For the last 16 years, Al-Ayn has developed a grassroots community that serves and empowers orphaned children and their families. The Luminous Stars centres provide orphaned children with a second chance at life. Each centre aims to rebuild the lives of orphaned children and youth by providing access to psychological rehabilitation and vocational training workshops to allow for orphaned youth to transition into adulthood.

“Only three things follow a man after his death; Sadaqa that he has contributed in his life and which continues after his death (Sadaqa Jariya); a good tradition that he started which is acted upon after his death; or a virtuous descendant who prays for him.” – Imam Al-Sadiq (as)
