    “Whoever relieves the hardship of a believer in this world, Allah will relieve his hardship on the Day of Resurrection.”

     

    — Sahih Muslim 2699
     

    In Pakistan and Malawi, thousands are sleeping under plastic sheets, in torn tents, and collapsing huts. These aren’t temporary setbacks, for many, this has been their reality for years.
     

    But this doesn’t have to be where the story ends.
     

    Look at the difference:
     

    From rusted iron and leaking tarps in Pakistan…

    To a strong, dry home with doors, privacy, and safety.

    From rain-soaked shelters…

    To a brick home, painted and secure,

    This is the change your donation brings. This is what it means to relieve hardship.
     

    Why Homes Matter

    A home protects from the cold, rain, and disease.

    It keeps children warm. It gives families privacy and peace.

    It creates a space where healing can begin.

    This is the kind of hardship you can relieve.

    Note: At MAA, we believe we have a duty to fight injustice at every level, big and small. It’s not enough to give aid to the most vulnerable and marginalised after harm has befallen them; we must stand up for them and empower their voices. To fulfil our collective obligation, MAA may dedicate a portion of your sadaqah donations to this cause to create change and dismantle the forces that harm the most marginalised.
