Project Completed

Alhamdulillah, with the generous support of our donors, we successfully raised £14,281.64 through the £1 for 1 Appeal. This enabled us to provide 14,281 hot meals to fasting individuals during Ramadan 2026 across six countries: Pakistan, Yemen, Uganda, Nepal, Palestine, and Sri Lanka.

The Situation in the Chosen Countries

Millions of families around the world continue to face poverty, displacement, conflict, and rising food costs. For many vulnerable people, securing a meal to break their fast during Ramadan is a daily challenge.

Key Facts by Country:

• Pakistan: Over 40% of the population lives below the poverty line, with food insecurity continuing to rise.
• Yemen: More than 17 million people face acute hunger as a result of ongoing conflict.
• Uganda: Hosts one of the world’s largest refugee populations, many of whom struggle to afford daily meals.
• Nepal: Millions of families survive on less than £2 per day, particularly in rural communities.
• Palestine: Many families rely on food aid due to ongoing restrictions and economic hardship.
• Sri Lanka: Rising living costs and economic challenges have left many households unable to afford sufficient food.

What Was Achieved

Thanks to your support, 14,281 fasting individuals received nutritious iftar meals during Ramadan 2026. These distributions brought relief, dignity, and comfort to families facing hardship, allowing them to break their fast with a wholesome meal.

Impact of Your Support

For many beneficiaries, your £1 donation meant the difference between going hungry and having a meal to break their fast. Through this appeal, donors shared in the blessings of Ramadan while supporting some of the world’s most vulnerable communities.

“Whoever gives food for a fasting person to break his fast will have a reward like his.”
(Tirmidhi)

We pray that Allah (SWT) accepts your generous donations, blesses you abundantly, and makes this project a source of ongoing reward for you and your families. Ameen.

Alhamdulillah, this appeal successfully provided 100 wheelchairs to individuals living with physical disabilities in Bahawalnagar, Punjab, Pakistan. The distribution was personally overseen by Director of SYP, Imran Ali, who travelled to Pakistan on deployment to ensure the wheelchairs reached those most in need. A total of £6,500 was raised.

The Situation in Pakistan

Pakistan is home to an estimated 27 million people living with disabilities, many of whom face significant challenges due to poverty and a lack of access to essential mobility equipment. Without wheelchairs, countless individuals remain confined to their homes, limiting their access to education, employment, healthcare, and community life.

What Was Achieved

Through the generosity of our donors, 100 wheelchairs were distributed to vulnerable beneficiaries across Bahawalnagar. These wheelchairs have helped restore mobility, independence, dignity, and hope to individuals who previously struggled with daily movement. The project has enabled recipients to participate more actively in family life, education, work, and worship.

Impact of Your Support

A wheelchair is more than just a mobility aid—it is a life-changing gift. By supporting this appeal, donors helped transform the lives of disabled individuals and their families, providing greater freedom, confidence, and opportunity.

“Allah will help His servant as long as the servant helps his brother.”
(Muslim)

May Allah reward all those who contributed to this successful project and make it a source of ongoing benefit for every donor involved. Ameen.

Alhamdulillah, through the generous support of Saalik Youth Project (SYP), this appeal successfully provided 30 fully stocked fruit carts to vulnerable individuals in Bahawalnagar, Punjab, Pakistan. The distribution was personally overseen by Director of SYP, Imran Ali, who travelled to Pakistan on deployment to ensure the fruit carts reached those most in need.

The Situation in Pakistan

Bahawalnagar is a predominantly rural district in Punjab where agriculture is the main source of income for many families. Despite its rich agricultural heritage, widespread poverty, seasonal employment, and limited economic opportunities leave many households struggling to earn a stable income. For those without work or financial support, starting a small business is often impossible due to the high cost of equipment and stock.

What Was Achieved

Through the generosity of our supporters, 30 fully stocked fruit carts were distributed to individuals facing financial hardship across Bahawalnagar. Each cart was equipped with fresh produce, enabling recipients to immediately begin trading and earning an income. Rather than providing temporary relief, this project gave beneficiaries the opportunity to establish sustainable livelihoods and work towards long-term financial independence.

Impact of Your Support

A fruit cart is more than just a means of selling produce—it is an opportunity to restore dignity, provide financial stability, and create a brighter future for an entire family. By supporting this appeal, donors helped empower vulnerable individuals to become self-sufficient, support their households, and build lasting livelihoods within their communities.

“The best of people are those who are most beneficial to others.”
(al-Mu’jam al-Awsat)

May Allah reward every donor who contributed to this project, place barakah in the livelihoods of all those who received support, and make it a source of ongoing reward for everyone involved. Ameen.

Project Ongoing

Alhamdulillah, work has begun on the construction of a new 250-capacity Masjid in Pakistan, which will serve a Muslim community with limited access to suitable prayer facilities. During a deployment visit in May 2026, Director of SYP, Imran Ali, personally laid the first brick, marking the official commencement of this blessed project. A total of £6,250 was raised.

The Need in Pakistan

Pakistan has a population of over 240 million people, and many rural and underdeveloped communities continue to lack adequate places of worship within walking distance. Existing masjids are often overcrowded, particularly during Jumu’ah, Ramadan, and Islamic gatherings, making it difficult for worshippers to pray comfortably.

A masjid is far more than a place of prayer. It serves as a hub for Islamic education, community support, charity distribution, counselling, and social welfare. In many villages, children rely on the local masjid to learn the Qur’an, tajweed, Islamic manners, and essential religious knowledge.

Progress So Far

With the support of generous donors, construction has now commenced. The first brick was laid by Imran Ali during his visit to Pakistan in May 2026, symbolising the beginning of a project that will benefit generations to come.

Once completed, the masjid will accommodate approximately 250 worshippers and will also serve as a centre for food distributions, Zakat programmes, and emergency relief efforts, helping vulnerable families within the local community.

The Lasting Impact

A masjid is one of the greatest forms of Sadaqah Jariyah (continuous charity). Every prayer performed, every Qur’an lesson taught, and every act of worship carried out within its walls will continue to benefit those who helped make it possible.

“Whoever builds a mosque for Allah, Allah will build for him a house in Paradise.”
(Bukhari & Muslim)

We ask Allah (SWT) to accept this project, bless all those who have contributed towards it, and make it a source of ongoing reward for generations to come. Ameen.
