Providing clean water by establishing water lines
أَخْبَرَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ حَجَّاجٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ شُعْبَةَ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْحَسَنَ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَادَةَ، أَنَّ أُمَّهُ، مَاتَتْ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ أُمِّي مَاتَتْ أَفَأَتَصَدَّقُ عَنْهَا قَالَ " نَعَمْ ". قَالَ فَأَىُّ الصَّدَقَةِ أَفْضَلُ قَالَ " سَقْىُ الْمَاءِ ".
"O Messenger of Allah, my mother has died; can I give charity on her behalf?" He said: "Yes." He said: "What kind of charity is best?" He said: "Providing drinking water."
Many poor villages in Egypt are in need of drinking water. Kase al-basal in Al-Faiyum, Egypt is one of those village that is in need of your support. This village does not have any water facilities and needs to travel far lengths to obtain clean and pure water. This project will build water lines that are 750 meters long which will be connected through the houses and the masjid in the village. The village has a lot of orphans, divorced families, and sick people. There are 500 families in this village which means there are around 25,000 people who will benefit from this water line being built. With your help, we can change the lives of the people and orphans that live in the village.
