The Waqf Project  

Dar al-Zahra (UK) is a community charitable organisation that is run by women and serves women in Liverpool, UK and beyond. It is based upon three core and fundamental principles: Knowledge, Practice and Service.   

Since its inception in 2018, Dar al-Zahra has gone from offering classes for young girls in Liverpool to offering various courses to women from all around the world.  

"To educate a man is to educate an individual but to educate a woman is to educate a whole nation" - Malcolm X 

Dar al-Zahra currently relies solely on donations and funding. Although we are truly blessed to be amongst a very generous and supportive community, we are striving to become a self-sustaining organisation. Dar al-Zahra's waqf project is an initiative that will allow continuous investment and income generation to alleviate the need for regular donations. The endowment will also allow investment in other projects that create continuous income. 

The waqf project will allow us to become better together as any projects that are invested in will become sadaqa jariyah for oneself or in the name of loved ones for the life of the project to our donors.  

The beauty of this project is that it will not only allow us to become better together but your investment into the project will act as an ongoing sadaqa jariya for you for as long as there are women benefiting from the knowledge taught.  

UPDATE : Dar al-Zahra Waqf Project  

The Dar al-Zahra Waqf project has a 10-year plan to achieve self-sustainability in order to support our various initiatives. Our goal is to make an investment each year for the next decade, ultimately generating income for the charity. We are deeply grateful for the generosity of our network, which has enabled us to make four investments during our first five years. We’re excited to announce the recent purchase of our third property, which is now ready for rental income. We invite you to help us pay off the loans for this property as well as working towards making our fifth investment by 2025.

Together, we can continue to make a meaningful impact!
