This fundraiser is for my beloved Shaykh in Mauritania – a man who has dedicated his entire life to teaching sacred Islamic knowledge without taking a single penny from his students.

He teaches full-time, for free, out of sincere devotion to Allah ﷻ and love for the tradition. He has taught hundreds of students, some of whom are now teachers and scholars themselves. Yet despite his immense service to the Ummah, he receives no salary and insists on never charging for knowledge.

As a result, he struggles to support his family and cover even the most basic of needs. Bills pile up. Opportunities for teaching are sometimes paused because of financial pressure.

We want to change that.

This campaign is an effort to raise enough support so that the Shaykh can focus fully on teaching – without the distraction or burden of financial hardship. Your donation will go towards helping him pay rent, feed his family, and continue spreading sacred knowledge in the purest way possible.

Why Give?

Ongoing Reward (Ṣadaqah Jāriyah): Every student he teaches, every lesson he delivers, every future scholar he helps shape – you will have a share in that reward.

Support Pure Intention: This is a man who has refused compensation in this world – help ease his affairs so he can continue without worry.

Invest in Knowledge: Supporting scholars is one of the highest forms of charity. They are the inheritors of the prophets.

"Whoever helps a person in need, Allah will help him in his time of need."

— Prophet Muhammad ﷺ (Muslim)

Please give whatever you can. Even £5 or £10 can go a long way in Mauritania. And please share with others who love the scholars and want to support the building of the next generation of righteous teachers.
