Build Something
That Lasts Forever
A Waqf Fund is not just a donation — it is a living endowment. Your contribution sustains Taqwa Institute's mission across generations, funding education, scholarship, youth leadership, community care, and outreach.
"When a servant of Allah dies, his deeds come to an end except for three things: Sadaqah Jariyah, beneficial knowledge, and a righteous child who prays for him."

A River That Flows After You Are Gone
The trees you plant, you may never sit beneath their shade.
The wells you dig, you may never drink from.
But those who come after you will know your name —
not carved in stone, but woven into every du'a they make.
A Waqf Fund is your river. It flows on, long after you return to your Lord.
What Is a Waqf Fund?
An Islamic endowment — wealth set aside solely for the sake of Allah, generating benefit in perpetuity. It cannot be sold, inherited, or diverted.
Permanent
Principal is preserved forever. The benefit flows continuously — never depleted, always giving.
Flowing Reward
Sadaqah Jariyah that earns you reward even after death — every student taught, every family helped.
Community-Owned
Not charity for the needy — infrastructure for the whole Ummah, built and maintained by those who care.
Your Annual
Commitment
We ask each Sustainer for an annual commitment — not a one-off — because infrastructure requires consistency. From £250/year you can be part of building Taqwa Institute's enduring legacy.

1,000 Sustainers at £250/year = a legacy that outlasts us all.
