This Muharram, go beyond personal grieving and channel our faith into a community act of generosity. Start this Islamic year with an honorable deed by donating to build a mosque. Mosques hold immense importance in Islam, serving as community centers for Muslims.
While mosque construction requires financial support, you can contribute to this noble cause by donating to mosques in need of expansion or by helping build a new mosque through Al Mustafa Welfare Trust.
Donate to a Mosque for greater rewards in Muharram
Why donate to a mosque during Muharram
There are numerous benefits to donating to mosques during Muharram:
- Emulating Imam Hussain's (AS) spirit: His sacrifice exemplified selflessness and invincible faith. By donating to mosques, we support institutions that foster our faith, thus imitating his noble example.
- Multiplied blessings: During holy months like Muharram, the rewards for good deeds are increased. As reported by Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-As (RA): "Whoever fasts on the 10th of Muharram, it is as though he has fasted the entire year. And whoever gives charity on this day, it is like the charity of an entire year." (Recorded by Imam Ibn Rajab al-Hanbali in his Lata'if al-Ma'arif from Abu Musa al-Madini)
- Long-term impact: Mosques serve as centers for learning, worship, and fellowship. Your donation can positively impact future generations, as all prayers performed in the mosque contribute to your blessings from Allah (SWT).
- Elevated status in paradise: Donating to mosques helps achieve higher standards in paradise. During Muharram, these rewards are doubled, making it an especially auspicious time for charitable acts.
Build a SaDAQAH JARIYAH Mosque
Alhamdulillah, Al Mustafa Welfare Trust has successfully built 84 mosques in various locations across multiple countries. We have focused on areas where people cannot afford to build mosques or must travel long distances to offer prayers.
Additionally, we have renovated 54 mosques, equipping them with fans, lights, water coolers, prayer mats, and carpets to enhance the comfort of Prayers.
Mosques serve not just individuals but entire communities. They benefit the whole population in the vicinity and allow the community to draw closer to Allah (SWT). The importance of mosque construction is evident from this Hadith:
The Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said:
"Whoever builds a mosque for the sake of Allah, like a sparrow's nest for Allah or even smaller, Allah will build for him a house in Paradise." (Sunan Ibn Majah 738)
This Hadith highlights the immense rewards of building a mosque and providing continuous support to those in need. Whether you donate to build an entire mosque or contribute to a mosque fund, you can secure a place in Paradise, Insha'Allah.
Even if you cannot afford to fund a whole mosque, any contribution is valuable.
Sadaqah Jariyah in Action
At Al Mustafa Welfare Trust, we would like to congratulate [name withheld] on her role in building a mosque. With the generous support of her donors, we have constructed a mosque for our Muslim brothers and sisters to pray in Chak No 120, near Adda Khatarli Bangla Road.
This mosque will accommodate 120 to 150 worshippers at a time. Insha’Allah, it will provide children in the area with a place to recite the Holy Quran, deepen their understanding of religion, and become integral members of their community. This mosque, donated as Sadaqah Jariyah for [name withheld] and [name withheld], will also benefit Sister [name withheld] both in this world and in the hereafter.
We pray that Allah accepts [name withheld] deeds and rewards her and her family tenfold.
