Although our hearts hurt and are saddened by the departure of our loved ones, we must accept and come to terms with Allah’s decree. For Allah created us and ultimately we belong to him and will return to him. We hope that one day He will reunite us with them in the Hereafter. But until that day comes, what should we do? what now, one may ask. and Is there any way to help and benefit the deceased? The answer is yes. This is the beauty of Islam. there are several ways we can benefit them. Sadaqah Jariyah, also known as perpetual or ongoing charity, is one of the main ways we can benefit our brothers and sisters even after they have passed away. This was best described by the Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) himself, when he said in a authentic hadith narrated in sahih muslim : “When a man dies, his good deeds come to an end, except three: Ongoing charity (sadiqah Jariah), beneficial knowledge (he taught others), and a righteous child who will pray for him”. So this shows the immense importance of sadiqah jariah in islam.

There are a range of sadiqah jariah projects one can invest in. From water wells that will last many years and help impoverished communities have clean water, to Mosques and hifz schools. But all can be a continuous source of reward and blessings for the deceased.

One of the most significant benefits of Sadaqah Jariyah is its ability to serve as an ongoing act of charity that continues to benefit others, even after the individual has passed away. When the deceased has left behind a legacy of Sadaqah Jariyah, they are assured of receiving rewards as long as their charitable efforts continue to positively impact the lives of others. It serves as a means to maintain a connection with the world and contribute to making it a better place. Which embodies the true essence of Islam.

On our website, we invite you to join us in the noble act of Sadaqah Jariyah, as we strive to foster positive change in the lives of those in need, and honor the legacy of our loved ones who have departed from this world. Together, let us make a lasting impact in the world through perpetual acts of charity, benefiting both the deceased and the living.
