Education: A Key Tool to Alleviate Poverty

Allah سبحانه و تعالى says,

“Read in the name of your Lord who created.”

(Quran, 96:1)

The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said,

“Seeking knowledge is an obligation upon every Muslim.”

(Ibn Majah)

These Ayah and Hadith highlight the importance of education in Islam. This is why at HCR, we believe that the best way to lift families out of poverty is through education. Every child has the universal right to education. Through our education projects, we support schools and institutes and fund educational initiatives across Pakistan. To expand and sustain more schools and education projects, we need your ongoing support. Donate your Sadaqah and Zakat to help change lives ‘one child at a time’.

Deaf and Mute School in Azad Kashmir

Education is the right of every child, regardless of their health or abilities. HCR has set up an impactful project in Azad Kashmir where hundreds of deaf and mute children are receiving free education. Often neglected by society, these children risk falling into a cycle of poverty. However, through our initiative, they can acquire skills that promise a more stable future.

All our students, ranging from 3 to 17 years old, are either deaf, mute, mentally challenged, or partially blind. Your donation will support their education, uniforms, books and stationery, school meals, transportation, and much more.

Help give these special needs children the opportunity to fulfil their dreams. Sponsor a deaf and mute child today.

Every Child has the Right to Learn

Many children in Pakistan never experience a day in school, while others are forced to leave due to overcrowding, poverty, or gender disparities. Even in regions where education is accessible, socio-economic divides play a significant role in educational outcomes, with a clear connection between limited literacy, lower income, and unemployment. Numerous obstacles can impede the path to education. Yet, the desire to learn is a common thread binding children across Pakistan. They recognise education as the gateway to endless opportunities.

We at HCR are committed to ensuring that education remains uninterrupted for children, regardless of the challenges they may face. Support our education projects and bring a positive change to the lives of children of Pakistan.

Islamic Education: Help Support Hufaaz and Imams

The pursuit of Islamic education is essential in nurturing our spiritual and communal strength. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said, “The best among you are those who learn the Quran and teach it” (Sahih Bukhari). By sponsoring a Hafiz or an Imam, you are playing a vital role in preserving and spreading the teachings of Islam. Hufaaz memorise and recite the Quran, while Imams lead our communities with knowledge and wisdom.

Your contributions ensure that these dedicated individuals receive the necessary resources and training to excel in their roles. This support not only enhances their personal spiritual journeys but also benefits the wider Ummah by fostering educated and inspiring leaders. Join us in this noble cause and help illuminate the path of knowledge and faith for future generations. May Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى reward your generosity.

HCR – Help Alleviate Poverty

We are a UK-based international relief, development and education charity. Inspired by Islamic teachings of empathy, generosity, and selflessness, we focus on alleviating poverty and suffering across the world. We operate a 100% Zakat Policy, which means every single penny of your Zakat will go to the victims of poverty, wars, and natural disasters.

Before you support our Food Appeal, Water Appeal, Gaza Emergency Appeal, Syria Emergency Appeal, Yemen Emergency Appeal, Pakistan Appeal, or any Emergency Appeal, remember to make the intention that you are donating for the sake of Allah first and helping your fellow Muslim brothers and sisters second. This is very important because as Muslims, whatever act of worship we do, we do it for the sake of Allah.

Along with our emergency appeals, we are working on some amazing projects which will, Insha’Allah, bring prosperity to many Muslim homes from around the world. Donate your Sadaqah and Zakat to our projects like Build a Masjid, Livelihoods for the Poor, Sponsor a Widow, Sponsor an Orphan, Sponsor a Nikah, Donate a Sewing Machine, or help educate the Ummah by donating towards education projects, Sponsoring a Hafiz, Sponsoring a Child in Education, or supporting young people in university and Islamic education. Donate with confidence, Insha’Allah, every penny of your donation is your Amanah, and we will try our best to spend it on people who are in need.

Every year, we as Muslims celebrate two seasons the most: one, Ramadan, and two, the first ten days of Dhul Hijjah. During these blessed days, we put all our efforts into pleasing Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى by performing good deeds. Here at HCR, we provide you with the platform to perform an important act of worship: charity. In Ramadan, you can donate to the Ramadan Food Appeal, and Ramadan Zakat Appeal, Donate Your Fidyah, Donate Your Fitrana, and Pay Your Kaffarah for Breaking Oath or Breaking Fast, especially during the blessed nights of Laylatul Qadr. In Dhul Hijjah, we are here to help fulfil your duty of performing Qurbani. Whichever cause you choose, choose it with confidence. Insha’Allah.
