Sadaqa Jariyah: Back to School Campaign

“Those who in charity spend of their goods by night and by day, in secret and in public, have their reward with their Lord: on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve” (2:274)

One of the highest forms of social solidarity among Muslims is giving alms to those in need and engaging in deeds that yield continuous rewards. From this perspective, and to strengthen the values of brotherhood and solidarity, charitable institutions race to develop programs that offer relief and support to beneficiaries, providing them an escape from the pressures of life. Among these, Tkiyet Um Ali stands out, widely recognized as the foremost charitable organization for those looking to donate Sadaqa Jariyah. Its comprehensive and diverse programs, coupled with its transparency in handling financial transactions and delivering aid to those in need, make it the leading choice in its community.

As the new school year approaches, Tkiyet Um Ali has committed to providing students of limited income with essential school supplies as a form of Sadaqa Jariyah and to give the community a chance to help people in need. This initiative aims to offer better opportunities for children in their education and enable the community to support their academic journeys. In this article, we will explore the Back to School Campaign offered by Tkiyet Um Ali, providing an overview of its objectives, its impact, how to participate, and more.

ًWhat Is the “Back to School Campaign”?

Under the slogan “Give them the joy of going back to school,” Tkiyet Um Ali focuses on children from low-income backgrounds in this campaign. According to statistics, 40,970 students cannot bear the burden of owning a new school bag, school supplies, a winter coat to protect them during cold months, or even food parcels that provide their nutritional needs. Here comes the importance of the campaign, as donations are collected and allocated to purchase these needs and distribute them to children in need so that they can begin their school year prepared for success.

The Impact of the Back to School Campaign on the Community

The return to school period is filled with children's joy as they purchase new school supplies, such as clothes, bags, and stationery. Our children eagerly compete to get their little hands on colorful stationery and bags adorned with the logos of their favorite heroes. However, this period also has a challenging side; it poses a significant financial burden on parents of low income. Many cannot meet their children’s needs for these essential tools, which facilitate their educational journey. This lack of resources can negatively impact the children’s psychology and their ability to learn, as they may feel inferior to their peers from more affluent families.

This is where the Back to School Campaign comes into play. Tkiyet Um Ali allows these parents to meet their children’s needs and bring happiness to their hearts. Following the Prophet Muhammad's teaching, the program also enhances the spirit of social solidarity and unity within society: “A Muslim is the brother of a Muslim.” Through this initiative, Tkiyet Um Ali not only supports the educational needs of children but also fosters a sense of community and mutual support among all members of society.

The Importance of Education in Building Society

Islam is a religion that encourages seeking education, as no one can deny that it is essential to building a strong and prosperous society. Investing in education ensures that future generations are equipped with the skills and knowledge they need to meet the challenges ahead, thus contributing to building a more stable and developed society. Hence, providing equal opportunities for children from different financial backgrounds and supporting them in their academic journey through the Back to School Campaign is paramount.
