Ilyas and his wife want to be able to cook more so that they can sell larger quantities and meet the demands of their customers.

The Messenger of Allah ļ·ŗ said: It is better for one among you to bring a load of firewood on his back and give charity out of it (and satisfy his own need) and be independent of people, than that he should beg from people, whether they give him anything or refuse him. Verily the upper hand is better than the lower hand, and begin (charity) with your dependents. [Muslim]
Ilyas is a living example of the hadith of the Prophet ļ·ŗ regarding those who try to work to earn a Halal and respectable income instead of begging others. At GlobalSadaqah our mission is to empower such people so that they go from becoming beneficiaries to benefactors themselves. This is the core of our mission to Circulate Good.
Even the smallest of donations count.Ā Allah loves all those who give and help remove a difficulty of a fellow Muslim.Ā The donations from this campaign not only help Ilays set up a decent business but will also help stabilize a family going through a very tough time because of debt.
