Allahu Akbar!
We are extremely humbled and our hearts are full of joy that the sadaqah efforts of creating a water well in honor of our dear student Ibrahim Hussain has been completed. Please take the time to watch the attached video to see the launch of the water well in a village in Mali.
It truly shakes the heart to see the shukr and sheer happiness of these villagers in finally having a water source close to home that they may benefit from. We pray that every drop of water that benefits the villagers are good deeds that will weigh heavily on Ibrahim's scale until the Day of Judgement. This is just a small effort we wanted to do to honor his legacy with BHA and it would not have been possible without the help and efforts of the entire BHA community at large. We thank each and every one of you that contributed. Truly, he was a special student and he left a mark on us all. We ask that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala continue to grant his family sabrun jameel. Please continue to keep him in your du'as as well as his family.
As it was related by the sahabah, the Prophet (PBUH) said,
"Whosoever digs a well will receive reward for that from Allah on the Day of Judgement when anyone among jinn, men, and birds drink from it”
(Bukhari and Muslim).
Again, may Allah accept this sadaqah jariyah from all who were involved in this endeavor!
