Why You Should Donate At Least One Water Well in Your lifetime

The best form of Sadaqa (Charity) in Islam for Muslims is to donate to build a water well or water pump which will provide clean water to the poor and needy of the Ummah. This is extremely rewarding deed because its a form of sadaqa al jariyah (continuing source of reward) for yourself or your loved ones, who is still alive or has returned to Allah.

Types of Water Well You Can Donate To Build

Shallow Well (£250)

A medium term solution to provide clean water access to the needy. Thanking you from the heart for each drop of water that is used. Built in areas where deeper digging is not necessary to reach clean water.
Est. Completetion Time: 5-7 Months
Location: Decided by planning team

Semi-Deep Well (£500)

A medium - long term solution for areas where water is harder to find and deeper digging is necessary for clean water. Mostly dug in remote areas where access to clean water is a luxury. More reward for reaching out further and giving clean water access to the most in need.
Est. Completetion Time: 6-9 Months
Location: Decided by planning team

Deep Well (£1000)

A long term solution of clean water for mostly large institutions or large gathering areas like mosque, universities and market places. Thousands will benefit every day, quenching the thirst of the thirsty. A way for you to gain Allah's pleasure and getting rewarded every moment a soul is benefitted by your water well.
Est. Completetion Time: 6-12 Months
Location: Decided by planning team

Community Well (£2000)

Gift this well to the entire community. Water is the basis of life. By donating a community well you will be giving a lifeline to the whole community who do not have any access to clean water. The smile and prayer of the entire community for your donated well will be priceless and a high level in Allah's sight.
Est. Completetion Time: 8-12 Months
Location: Decided by planning team

Bore Holes (£5000)

Bore Holes are mostly dug in Asia & Africa (arguably the most need of water source at the moment) due to the nature of the environment and the soil type.
Est. Completetion Time: 12-18 Months

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is there no option to choose the location ?

The location of the water well is determined and finalised by the planning team, who look at several factors like weather, security, accessibility, cost etc, before allocating a water well. If you really want us to build a water well to your selected location, then please contact us. We can discuss and see if we can accommodate your request.

Will I get regular updates ?

For progress updates, please email us from time to time so that we can update you. This is because we don’t have an automated system in place to send updates at the moment.

What proof of the water well will I get ?

After making the donation, you will get a receipt of donation. You will also get certificate of donation, pictures of the water well with plaque name and completion report after the water well is completed.

Can I get the certificate before the water well is built ?

Yes, we can send you the donation certificate on request before the water well is built. If you want it, then please email us after making the donation.

How long does the water well take to build ?

Shallow:        5-7 months

Semi-Deep:   6-9 months

Deep:             6-12 months

Community:   8-12 months

Bore Hole:     12-18 months

Is the water well maintained and serviced ?

Every water well has a local contact person who can raise any issue that is related to the donated water well. If an issue is raised then we look into it and service and maintain it if needed.

Will the documents be sent via email or post ?

By default, the documents are sent via email, which is the quickest and the safest way. If you want the documents to be sent via post then please email us with your request.

What should I put in "Enter Certificate Name" section ?

You can put anyone’s name. For eg. If you want to gift your parents by building a water well in their name, then you can put your parent’s name.

What should I put in "Enter Plaque Name" section?

Enter the name of the person for whom the water well is being built. 

Or enter whatever you want people to see when they are using the water well.

The plaque is attached to the water well. You will be able to see this in the picture that we send to you.
