of a Jami’ah-tul-Madinah and Madrasa-tul-Madinah, such as (ghee, rice, tea bags, milk, etc.) as much as you can, and encourage others to do the same.

Sadaqah-e-Jariyah for parents

In any case, one should try to take part in this good deed. Covering these expenses can also include the intention of rewarding one's late parents; after all, pious children serve their parents when they are alive. If only, even after the death of our parents, we are able to spend as much as possible on religious activities and obtain the pleasure of doing Isal-e-Sawab (conveying reward) for them as this will be Sadaqah-e-Jariyah (continuous reward) too.

Also keep in mind here that whether we are present or not, the system of Islam will continue till the Day of Judgement. It is a matter of fortune for us of how much of our share is involved in this or how many good deeds we can get in our book of deeds by contacting others (to do the same). Thus do not only donate your own Zakah and Fitrah and other charity to Dawat-e-Islami, but rather, collect donations from relatives, friends and other Muslims and deposit them at the stall of Dawat-e-Islami.

Attention! Those who collect charity

When donations are collected, seek permission from the original owner with the following words: Give permission for your donations to be spent on any legitimate, religious, reformative, welfare, spiritual, benevolent and righteous work of Dawat-e-Islami.
