The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said:
“When a person dies, his/her acts come to an end, but three: sadaqah jariyah (recurring or ongoing charity), useful/beneficial knowledge, or a pious child who prays for the deceased.”
Sahaba Initiative Giving program provides community members with an opportunity to give Sadaqa Jariya to plan for an everlasting legacy by including Sahaba Initiative in their will.
Planned Gifts to the Sahaba Initiative are considered major gifts made in lifetime or at death as part of a doner’s overall financial and/or estate planning. These forms of gifts can include equity, life insurance, real estate, personal property, or cash.
The rewards for these gifts continue even beyond the giver’s lifespan on Earth. Up to 30% of your estate can be donated to charity according to Islamic guidelines.
