In Loving Memory of Aadam Ahmed – A Gift of Water, A Lasting Legacy
Help us build a solar water well in Pakistan as Sadaqah Jariyah for our beloved friend Aadam Ahmed.
Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un.
At just 18 years old, Aadam Ahmed tragically lost his life in a road traffic accident, leaving behind a heartbroken family, friends and everyone who knew and loved him.
Adam was a happy, bubbly young man, full of life, with a beautiful smile and a personality that brought joy to those around him. He had his whole life ahead of him, and his sudden passing has left an unimaginable void in our hearts.
As Aadam's friends, we have come together to honour his memory in a way that will continue to benefit others for years to come.
Hundreds of people gathered at Ashton Central Mosque to pay their final respects, a beautiful reflection of the love and respect she had earned throughout her life.
Following the passing of her beloved husband, Uncle Ijaz, a few years earlier, Auntie Cheemi deeply missed his companionship. Their love and devotion to one another will always be remembered by their family and community.
A Lasting Legacy Through Sadaqah Jariyah
Why Pakistan? Why Clean Water?
In Pakistan, around 55% of the population lacks access to safely managed drinking water. UNICEF has previously estimated that 53,000 children under the age of five die annually from diarrhoea linked to poor water and sanitation. For many families, something as basic as safe drinking water remains a daily struggle, putting lives, particularly those of young children, at risk.
Together with Action For Humanity, we are raising funds to build a solar-powered water well in Pakistan, providing clean drinking water to approximately 450 people across 50 households every day.
Powered by the sun, this sustainable well will provide a reliable source of water for drinking, everyday household needs and supporting local livelihoods, helping reduce exposure to unsafe water and improving quality of life.
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was asked which charity was best, and he replied:
“Water.” (Sunan Abi Dawud, 1679)
Our hope is that every drop of water drawn from this well, every thirst quenched and every family helped will become a source of ongoing reward for Aadam, insha’Allah.
And by donating, you too have the opportunity to share in this beautiful Sadaqah Jariyah, earning ongoing rewards long after your donation.
No contribution is too small. Together, we can turn the heartbreak of losing our beloved friend into something beautiful that changes lives.
Please donate generously and help us build this lasting legacy in Aadam Ahmed’s memory.
