Sadaqah Jariyah literally translates to "flowing" or "running" charity — a voluntary act of giving whose benefits continue to flow to both the giver and receiver long after the initial donation. Unlike regular charity, Sadaqah Jariyah funds projects that have lasting, generational impact.
While any voluntary charity is considered Sadaqah, Sadaqah Jariyah specifically refers to those acts that create a sustainable benefit. Examples include funding a school, planting fruit trees, building a well, sponsoring a Quran student, or supporting an orphan's education — all of which continue to benefit others indefinitely.
Every Sadaqah Jariyah project you fund through BRDT creates a ripple effect of goodness in rural Bangladesh — and the reward for all of it flows back to you, even after you are gone.
Three powerful reasons why Sadaqah Jariyah is one of the most profound acts of worship in Islam.
The reward of Sadaqah Jariyah never stops — every time a student reads from a book you funded, every time a tree bears fruit you planted, or every time a Hafiz recites Quran you sponsored, the reward continues flowing to your account with Allah.
A single act of Sadaqah Jariyah can benefit an entire generation. Funding a student's education can transform their family's trajectory forever. Planting a fruit tree can feed hundreds of families for decades. Your one donation multiplies infinitely.
Unlike most deeds that cease at death, Sadaqah Jariyah continues to earn you reward in the Hereafter. Give in memory of a loved one who has passed and watch the reward be gifted to their account in Jannah — a priceless gift that transcends this world.

Scholars identify many forms: building or funding a mosque, school, hospital or well; planting trees that feed others; funding the teaching of beneficial knowledge; sponsoring an orphan's education; supporting Quran memorisation students. All BRDT projects qualify as forms of Sadaqah Jariyah.
Yes, and it is highly recommended. The reward of charitable deeds given on behalf of the deceased reaches them in the Hereafter. Many donors at BRDT give Sadaqah Jariyah in memory of parents, spouses or loved ones who have passed away.
There is no minimum amount. Any amount given sincerely for the sake of Allah, to fund a sustainable benefit, qualifies as Sadaqah Jariyah. Even £1 contributed toward planting a tree or funding school supplies creates ongoing reward.
