Sadaqah Jariyah 

Give your Sadaqah Jariyah with Penny Appeal! 

Sadaqah Jariyah is a blessed form of charity that offers us ongoing rewards throughout our lives in this world, as well as in the Hereafter.

Our Sadaqah Jariyah Projects

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, ‘When a person dies, his deeds come to an end except for three: Sadaqah Jariyah (a continuous charity), or knowledge from which benefit is gained, or a righteous child who prays for him’. (Muslim)

Check out some of our Sadaqah Jariyah projects that you can get involved with to keep your good deeds going in this life and the next.

What is Sadaqah Jariyah?

Sadaqah Jariyah is an ongoing form of charity that has long-lasting effects that benefit people on multiple occasions. In Arabic, the word jariyah translates to “flowing” and sadaqah translates to “charity”, so Sadaqah Jariyah literally means flowing charity!

 It is a continuous form of giving that provides for people long after we have gone to the Hereafter, providing us with never-ending rewards for our deeds. This form of flowing charity has been called by many names – unending charity, perpetual charity, ongoing charity, running charity – but they all reflect the true nature of this blessed way of giving. 

Penny Appeal's programmes have been designed with this beautiful act of giving in mind. The unique and sustainable projects we have created across the world give us all the option to make a difference to the lives of people for years to come, ensuring that we also join in the benefit of these ongoing rewards.

Transform Communities with your Sadaqah Jariyah

Sadaqah Jariyah is a beautiful, sustainable and ongoing form of charity. The rewards of giving this kind of charity can be reaped in this lifetime, and even after we have passed away.

Sadaqah Jariyah has the power to radically change the way we give. When you give Sadaqah Jariyah, you are investing in sustainable projects, whose positive effects and blessings will last for years to come. We have some amazing Sadaqah Jariyah programmes, from building wells to sponsoring orphans, which have transformed thousands of lives for generations.

Giving Sadaqah Jariyah is about creating a legacy of joy and blessings, for yourself and for others - which is why Sadaqah Jariyah is such a huge part of what makes our work amazing.
