بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ

اقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ (1) خَلَقَ الْإِنْسَانَ مِنْ عَلَقٍ (2) اقْرَأْ وَرَبُّكَ الْأَكْرَمُ (3) الَّذِي عَلَّمَ بِالْقَلَمِ (4) عَلَّمَ الْإِنْسَانَ مَا لَمْ يَعْلَمْ (5)

Recite: In the name of thy Lord who created man from a clot. Recite: And thy Lord is the Most Generous Who taught by the pen, taught man that which he knew not."​​    - Quran, 96:1-5

My mother Jihad dedicated her life to teaching. She always had a passion from teaching since she was in Jerusalem. After coming to the United States, she focused on teaching Quran and Arabic. She helped many students successfully complete the entire recitation of the Holy Quran and memorisation as well MashAllah. Unfortunately, due to Dementia/Alzheimer’s illness, she can no longer continue teaching. In Sha Allah I would like to honor her and continue her love for teaching by providing an opportunity for others to gain an education. May Allah cure all those suffering from any illness, Ameen.

The project in Cambodia has three parts and the school is the final project of the three. There currently is a Masjid and a Water well in the same complex of the school that will be built In Sha Allah. This allows students to gain an education as well as practice their faith in a safe place and have access to clean water! MashAllah May Allah Bless those who have already donated to build the Masjid and Water well.

​

Join me in Sadaqah Jariyah in helping provide education to students in Cambodia. This project has been on hold for almost 2 years waiting for someone to help build it. The community there is waiting for this school to be built and In Sha Allah we can do it!

The Prophet, upon him be peace, said: “Give charity without delay, for it stands in the way of calamity.” (Al-Tirmidhi)

The Prophet, upon be peace, said: “The believer’s shade on the Day of Resurrection will be his charity.” (Al-Tirmidhi)

Jazakallah Khair for your donation, may Allah reward you abundantly. May Allah grant you and your family blessing in your health and wealth and protect you from all harm and may He make this donation a means of salvation in the hereafter

ABOUT ZAKAT FOUNDATION

What Makes Us Unique?​​

Zakat Foundation of America is unique among humanitarian organizations in advancing zakat as a vehicle for social change. The third pillar of Islam, zakat is an obligatory claim on the wealth of the affluent to empower the indigent. Zakat Foundation channels this egalitarian spirit of zakat into a global vision of social development that transcends national boundaries, and stands as the foremost authority on interpreting zakat as a factor for positive change.

Zakat Foundation strives to be an exceptional relief and development organization, utilizing sustainable methods while modeling the spirit of cooperative internationalism that will be essential in an increasingly unstable world. As a direct result of its reputation for path-breaking humanitarianism with a global vision, Zakat Foundation is rapidly growing in reach and capacity. Every year brings new projects that expand the scope of our work and deepen its impact on the communities we serve.

Our Vision

We help generous and caring people reach out to those in need. Our goal is to address immediate needs and ensure the self-reliance of the poorest people around the world with zakat and sadaqa dollars of privileged Muslims and the support of other generous donors. We believe that those whom God has granted wealth need to cleanse that wealth through charity, and those whom God has tried with loss are accorded a rightful share from the resources of the affluent.

Our Mission

We foster charitable giving to alleviate the immediate needs of poor communities and to establish long-term development projects that ensure individual and community growth.
