As a dear friend of Ali’s and one of the founders of MATW, I am humbled to welcome you to our site.  MATW is one of the world’s most recognised, next generation Islamic charities that focuses on real projects and positive outcomes for our community.

MATW Project does things differently and we are proud of this. We focus on making a difference to those in need in the most efficient and effective approach.Our uniqueness lies in the transparent way in which we conduct our projects. The way in which we provide our donors with progress updates every step of the way also sets us apart from other organisations. We have a diverse team and are experienced and passionate about what we do. We are focused on developing our reputation in the charity sector, stronger partnerships and the communities we serve.

I thank you for your generosity, and for choosing us to help you build a legacy like Ali’s.

Jazakallah Kheir,
Mahmoud Ismail

MATW (and why it's not just another charity)

We manage all projects ourselves from beginning to end. This means we are directly involved in project execution every step of the way without the involvement of third parties. We use in-house models which means no middle man is involved. If we can’t control it, we won’t do it.

1. We build legacies

2. We focus on
maximum impact

3. We are completely
social (media)

MATW is big on Social Media and has built its entire global audience on it.

Why Africa?

Africa is one of the top regions in the world that suffers the most from the global water crisis.
In Africa, 45% of deaths in children under the age of 5 is caused by poor nutrition.
In Africa, 650 people die every day (including children) from preventable diseases related to contaminated water.

Our policy is a simple $ for $ policy. What we receive from donors for projects goes directly to the projects. No admin fees or hidden fees are added!

We have a generous network of sponsors that have kindly donated to our day to day admin costs, so you don't have to.

9. Are your projects Zakat applicable?

Our values at MATW are based on Islamic principles. These values extend throughout our operations and our CEO Shiekh Abu Bakr Zaoud.

All our projects in Africa are Zakat compliant. This includes the following projects:

  • Water wells
  • Sponsorships
  • Schooling and Education
  • Housing construction (Orphan and Widow)
  • Food distribution
  • Masjid Construction

However, our Rohingya Refugee village project is not Zakat compliant.

10. How can we donate our Zakat al mal?

Zakat Al-mal can be donated via our website under the ‘Donate’ tab. There is a specific Zakat Al-mal category.

11. What MATW projects are best suited to Sadaqa Jariyah?

Sadaqa Jariyah is a form of continuous charity which will benefit an individual even after they have passed.

 

Aisha (ra) narrates:

“A man came to the Prophet (SAW) and said: “My mother died suddenly and she did not leave a will, but I think that if she could have spoken she would have given in charity. Will she have a reward if I give in charity on her behalf?” The prophet (saw) said “Yes”. [al-bukharri – 1388; Muslim – 1004]

 

Our view on Sadaqa Jariyah is simple, we take into consideration the longevity of the donation and also its continual benefits. For example, knowledge has a continuous cycle of rewards, when you give knowledge there are many beneficiaries as knowledge is endless and passed down from one to another. The following MATW Projects are of most benefit:

  1. Education Programs (such as schooling, Dawah men and distribution of the Quran);
  2. Construction of Water wells;
  3. Construction and maintenance of Masjids;
  4. Orphan Sponsorship;
  5. Widow Sponsorship; and
  6. Housing Construction and Sponsorship.
