[Sadaqah](/sadaqah) is any voluntary act of charity — money, a smile, or removing harm from a path all count. **Sadaqah jariyah** is a specific category within that: a gift whose benefit, and reward, keeps flowing after the act itself, and even after the giver's death. A water well, a mosque, or a Quran left for others to read are the classic examples, because each keeps producing benefit long after the original gift was given. The practical difference for a donor is simple: a one-off sadaqah gift — cash to someone in need, say — delivers its benefit once. A sadaqah jariyah gift is chosen specifically because its benefit compounds: a well keeps supplying water for years, so does the reward attached to giving it. ## Where does the concept of sadaqah jariyah come from? The core hadith behind sadaqah jariyah is direct: "When a human being dies, all one's deeds cease, save three: a Sadaqah Jariyah, \[religious\] knowledge from which others benefit, and a righteous child who prays for one" ([Sahih Muslim 1631](https://sunnah.com/muslim:1631)). A related hadith adds: "The best one leaves behind after death are three: a righteous child who prays for one, a Sadaqah Jariyah, the rewards of which continue to reach one, and knowledge that continues to be applied after him" (Ibn Majah). Classical examples named in Islamic scholarship include hospitals and clinics, mosques, shelters for wayfarers, widows and orphans, educational institutions, water systems, and copies of the Quran donated to institutions or individuals. Water and mosques recur across nearly every list — which is why they're the two projects HNCO builds its own sadaqah jariyah programme around. ## How do you give sadaqah jariyah online? In practice it's a three-step process, whichever organisation you give through: choose a project, decide whether to give once or set up a recurring gift, then complete the donation securely online. There's no minimum amount and no paperwork — a debit card or a standing order is all that's needed. ![Flowchart showing three steps to give sadaqah jariyah online: step 1 choose a project such as water wells, mosques, or orphan care; step 2 choose one-off or monthly giving; step 3 give securely online, impact begins straight away](/__l5e/assets-v1/881f6140-2d3a-4b34-9d88-dcf560ea9a51/sadaqah-jariyah-online-1.webp) Before giving through [HNCO's donation page](/donation), it's worth knowing that HNCO is a UK non-profit organisation delivering water and masjid projects directly — and that this has no bearing on the religious validity of your sadaqah. See HNCO's guide on [how to verify an Islamic charity in the UK](/sadaqah/how-to-verify-an-islamic-charity-uk) before donating to any organisation for the first time, HNCO included. ## What sadaqah jariyah projects can you fund online with HNCO? The table below covers HNCO's core sadaqah jariyah projects. Water pricing is fixed and published; mosque and orphan-care projects are funded per appeal, so see the linked project pages for current costs. HNCO sadaqah jariyah projects Project Typical gift Ongoing benefit [Water contribution](/water/donate-water-pump) From £25 Goes toward the next well in HNCO's build queue in Pakistan or Kenya [Hand-pump water well](/water/donate-water-pump) From £150 Serves around 4 families (~25 people); roughly a 10-year lifespan [Solar water well](/water/solar-water-pump) From £1,800 Serves around 100 people; roughly a 20-year lifespan [Masjid building](/projects/build-a-masjid-pakistan) Per appeal — see project page A place of worship serving a community for generations [Orphan sponsorship](/projects/supporting-orphans) Per appeal — see project page Ongoing support for a child's care, described in the hadith evidence above alongside sadaqah jariyah ## Can you give sadaqah jariyah on behalf of someone else? Yes — this is one of the most common ways people give sadaqah jariyah in practice. It can be given on behalf of a living relative as a birthday or wedding gift (see HNCO's guides to [sadaqah as a gift for someone living](/sadaqah/sadaqah-gift-for-someone-alive) and [sadaqah jariyah gifts for weddings and birthdays](/sadaqah/sadaqah-jariyah-wedding-birthday-gifts)), or on behalf of someone who has passed away, where the ongoing reward is understood to continue reaching them. For the sensitive case of giving on behalf of a baby who died, HNCO has a dedicated, compassionately-written guide: [sadaqah jariyah for a baby who died](/sadaqah/sadaqah-jariyah-for-a-baby-who-died). ## Should you give a one-off donation or set up monthly sadaqah jariyah? Both are valid, and the choice comes down to what you can sustain. A one-off gift funds a project outright — useful for a specific well or a specific occasion. A monthly gift spreads the same total cost over time and is increasingly how UK donors give generally, not just for religious giving: 47% of UK donors used direct debit or standing order in 2024, and 3.3 million people increased an existing standing order to charity that same year ([UK Giving Report 2025, via NPT UK](https://www.nptuk.org/philanthropic-resources/uk-charitable-giving-statistics/)). Direct debit and standing order remain, in fact, the most popular way UK donors give overall ([Charities Aid Foundation](https://www.cafonline.org/insights/research/uk-giving-report)). 47% of UK donors gave via direct debit or standing order in 2024 3.3m UK donors increased a standing order to charity in 2024 4x higher giving among UK Muslims than the national average £708 average annual giving per UK Muslim donor £200m+ given by British Muslims during Ramadan alone ![Infographic: 4 times higher giving among UK Muslims than the national average, 708 pounds average annual giving per UK Muslim donor, 47 percent of UK donors gave via direct debit or standing order in 2024, 3.3 million UK donors increased a standing order to charity in 2024, over 200 million pounds given by British Muslims during Ramadan alone](/__l5e/assets-v1/ae33c07d-e2b5-47ab-8401-47f426ddcc85/sadaqah-jariyah-online-2.webp) If you'd rather work out a sustainable monthly figure before committing, HNCO's [sadaqah calculator](/sadaqah/sadaqah-calculator) and its guide to [setting up monthly sadaqah](/sadaqah/monthly-sadaqah) both walk through it — there's no fixed formula, since sadaqah, unlike [Zakat](/zakat), carries no mandated rate. ## What should you check before giving sadaqah jariyah online? Three things are worth confirming before you donate to any organisation online, not just HNCO: - **Is the organisation transparent about its legal status?** HNCO is a UK non-profit organisation and says so plainly; see [how to verify an Islamic charity in the UK](/sadaqah/how-to-verify-an-islamic-charity-uk) for the full checklist. - **Can you see where the money goes?** HNCO publishes fixed water pricing and sends donors GPS coordinates, photographs, and completion reports for every well — see [how donations are spent](/how-your-donations-are-spent). - **Is there a time of year that makes your sadaqah jariyah more meaningful to give?** Sadaqah carries no seasonal restriction, but some donors prefer sacred months — see HNCO's guide to [giving sadaqah in Rajab](/sadaqah/sadaqah-in-rajab) for one example. ### Give Sadaqah Jariyah Online with HNCO Fund a [water well](/water/donate-water-pump), a masjid contribution, or a [forever donation](/forever-donations) — one gift, ongoing benefit. [Give Sadaqah Jariyah Now](/donation) ## Sadaqah Jariyah Online — Frequently Asked Questions ### What is sadaqah jariyah? Sadaqah jariyah is “ongoing charity” in Islam — a gift, such as a water well or a mosque, whose benefit and reward continue after the initial act, even after the giver's death. ### How do I give sadaqah jariyah online? Choose a project (a water well, mosque, or orphan sponsorship are common choices), decide whether to give once or set up a recurring monthly gift, and complete the donation securely on the organisation's donation page. ### Is there a minimum amount for sadaqah jariyah? No. Sadaqah jariyah has no fixed minimum — HNCO's water contribution option starts from £25, but there's no formula you're required to follow. ### Can I give sadaqah jariyah on behalf of someone who has passed away? Yes. This is one of the most common ways sadaqah jariyah is given — the ongoing reward is understood to continue reaching the person it's given on behalf of. ### Is monthly sadaqah jariyah better than a one-off gift? Neither is “better” — both are valid. A one-off gift funds a project outright, while a monthly gift spreads the cost over time; 47% of UK donors already give via direct debit or standing order (UK Giving Report 2025). ### What sadaqah jariyah projects does HNCO offer? HNCO's core sadaqah jariyah projects are water wells (a hand-pump well from £150 or a solar well from £1,800), masjid building in Pakistan, and orphan sponsorship — all fundable online as a one-off or monthly gift. HNCO — Hajjah Naziha Charitable Organisation UK non-profit organisation delivering Sadaqah Jariyah water wells and masjid-building projects in Pakistan and Kenya since 2010.
