Water Wells
عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَادَةَ، قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَىُّ الصَّدَقَةِ أَفْضَلُ قَالَ سَقْىُ الْمَاءِ
Sa'd bin 'Ubadah said: "I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, what kind of charity is best?'
He said: "Providing drinking water." - Sunan Nasai
785 million people in the world – one in ten – do not have clean water close to home. Some of the poverty- stricken areas which are suffering the most in accessing safe and clean water are those in southern parts of Bangladesh, regions where we primarily operate.
The well draws water from 800 feet beneath the ground. A standard hand pump draws water 30 metres from the ground. Once built, the well can provide water for many families who need access to clean water. It takes around 10-12 months to build a water well.
