Water is one of the most basic, foundational necessities required to sustain life. With it Allah gives life and without it Allah decrees that life is halted.
Yet for some communities in Northern Nigeria, water can be hard to come by, simply due to the lack of proper infrastructure to service the community. It is with this need in mind that An-Nadaa Educational Foundation has made it their mission to assist these communities with access to safe water for daily consumption. An-Nadaa is one of GlobalSadaqah's most active and successful partners. They have built 19 wells in 2020 and 59 wells in total since 2018.
The Safe Water for All Project aims to provide new wells and boreholes for communities disconnected from water sources by doing extensive research on the ground, talking to community leaders on areas of need and enabling donors from all over the world to lend a helping hand to assist their fellow brothers and sisters in need.
The cost of a well covers the establishment of a borehole, required equipment to enable reliable delivery of drinking water, and long-term maintenance costs required to service a well for years to come - effectively providing a long term solution to the communities’ needs. An-Nadaa’s team actively does routine checks on the established boreholes to ensure the project does not just stop at the establishment of wells. Scholars have said, ''When you're giving sadaqah to a poor person, don't think of yourself as someone generous helping a needy. Rather the reality is that it's a needy person helping another needy person'
By the Grace of Allah, Ethis has been blessed with the opportunity to be a leader in the Islamic Social Finance space. We need to lead everyone by example and also leave a legacy that will continue to benefit us hundreds of years after we have departed from this life. Keeping this in mind, we have embarked on a mission to establish a waqf in the form of a well every year in some of the most needy parts of the world. Why is our waqf of choice a well? Sa’ad ibn Ubadah asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, “Which charity is best?” The Prophet ﷺ said, “A drink of water.” At Ethis we always want to perform at a level of Ihasan (excellence) and we aim to continue the same in our charity as well InshaAllah.
Abu Hurairah reported: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, “When a man dies, his deeds come to an end except for three things: Sadaqah Jariyah (ceaseless charity); a knowledge which is beneficial, or a virtuous descendant who prays for him.” [Muslim]
