How Muslim Hands Use Your Zakat
All you need to fulfill the third pillar
Build a Well on behalf of a loved one
The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) said: “The best form of charity is giving someone water to drink.” (Sunan Ibn Majah, Hadith 3684)
Dedicating a well on behalf of a loved one, including the deceased, is a powerful way to honor their memory and provide them with continuous blessings.
It creates a lasting legacy that benefits communities while earning ongoing rewards for the person in whose name the charity is given.
It’s a meaningful way to ensure your loved one continues to gain Allah’s mercy and blessings, even after they have passed, while bringing comfort to you and transforming lives for those in need.
We also offer a personalized plaque and a detailed feedback report which includes the location of where your well has been built and images of those benefiting from your donation. Each well takes approximately 3-6 months to complete, making it a meaningful and lasting gift.
