Message from the Chair of Trustees
Assalamu’ Alaikum Peace be upon you all
It is with great pride, I present Aryana Aid‘s annual report 2023. We continued to expand our works and reach the neediest in remote areas where other charities can not. We responded to scores of natural disasters.
Kindness and generosities of our donors as always enabled us to do more and spent on programs, we are indebted to all of donors and supporters for their ongoing continued support over the years.
As we present to you our annual report, we thank you for supporting our humanitarian, development and campaigning works once again this year. In particular, we extend our sincere gratitude to our big-hearted donors, partners, our staff and volunteers who continue to support not only the large-scale ongoing crises
year after year, but smaller emergencies that receive so little attention.
May Allah (tabarak wa ta'ala) accept all our efforts to serve humanity in accordance with our values with sincerity, compassion, excellence, custodianship and social justice.
I am immensely proud of what Aryana Aid has achieved over the past 14 years, but also aware of how critical our works will be in an increasingly disrupted world. Thank you to all those who have supported us along this journey, and most of all to Allah for blessing us with the means and opportunity to serve humanity.

Orphan Sponsorship
Give hope for Afghan orphans who deserve better futures.
Give vulnerable orphans the love and care they need to thrive.
Every child deserves a happy, healthy childhood and the opportunity to build a brighter future. For many of the 140 million orphans worldwide, this is simply out of reach.
With your support, we can ensure orphans and vulnerable children get all the opportunities you want for your own children.
Our orphan support program delivers not only high quality care and facilities, but gives our orphaned

children the best opportunities for a brighter future through education and skills.
How to Help ?
A large proportion of the Afghan orphans start working at a tender age to provide for themselves and their families, which often can expose them to abuse. These children not only miss out on their education, but also on their childhoods.
Your Zakat help us to put a smile back on their faces. Your Sadaqah gives them the confidence to play again.
You can give a vulnerable orphan the chance to break out of poverty for £300 per year.

Rahila’s STORY
their home, the family has been living in temporary shelter.
8 years old Rahila from Parwan, Afghanistan was orphaned in 2020. Her disabled mother and 4 siblings were left with no income to support themselves. Rahila’s mother now relies on the elderly grandmother to feed and clothe her children.
The already poor living conditions have been worsened by floods.
Her grandmother is a tailor; much of her income is spent on household expenses, with little to pay for Rahila’s schooling. Before joining Aryana Aid orphan education program, her family was very worried about her education.
Since the recent deadly flood in September 2021 destroyed
It has now been a year since Rahila started receiving sponsorship support through Aryana Aid. The money helps her with her schooling, clothes and medicine. She goes to school without any problems. Rahila is very optimistic about the future: “I like that Aryana Aid helps me. I work hard in school and want to help people as (social worker) when I grow up.”

EMERGENCY SHELTER
A Sanctuary of Hope
Help us provide emergency shelter to thousands of homeless refugees.
The people of Afghanistan have lived with conflict for more than four decades. Entire generations have never known peace and millions remain displaced. Renewed violence and instability, alongside severe drought and economic cri-
sis, have created an unprecedented humanitarian crisis for the people of Afghanistan.
Many fled with very few belongings and are struggling to survive in appalling conditions, living in
flimsy shelters. Aryana Aid is on the ground and doing everything possible to deliver relief, but urgently needs public support to help it reach families in desperate need.

Skill training program for widows
Breaking the cycle of poverty with education to widows
Losing a husband is traumatic enough, but many Afghan widows in are also left to fend for themselves and their children with no support. Together, we can give them new life skills.
Afghan widows are left behind without any support, especially to those who have kids.
Although there is more work available in urban areas, most of the job opportunities are not for unskilled
women, which means many widows end up doing menial work, begging, or going into prostitution to support themselves and their young children.
Some even attempt suicide because they are unable to cope with their circumstances. But, we can avoid this.
How Your Donations Help?
At our training centres we:
-
Empower women financially.
-
Give them the skills they need to find qualified work.
-
Teach them about women’s rights and how to fight exploitation at work.
-
Give widows a safe learning space.
Hamida’s STORY
I am a widow with three daughters and two sons who depend on me for everything since my husband was killed on a car accident.
The situation in Afghanistan is very bad, and the recession has made things worse as there are fewer jobs now than there were before.
Although there is some support available for women like me, the agencies were unable to help me when I approached them; I felt that they didn’t really care about me because of the huge number of other cases that they had to deal with and I became very depressed and anxious about my children.
was offered a place at the Aryana Aid training centre.
knowledge and training that they need to find semi-skilled work or to set up micro businesses. We also provide advice about avoiding exploitation from dishonest employers and customers.
The charity is helping me develop new skills so that I can find work, and it is also helping my children who now go to school.I enjoy going to the centre and feel more secure about my future and the future of my children I am really thankful to Aryana Aid and supporters.

The sponsorship includes micro-business courses like tailoring, embroidery and cooking.

Give Life, Give Water
The Prophet (Peace be Upon Him) said the best form of charity is giving water (Hadith).
Water is basic need to everyone in the communities, today thousands of people already struggling against poverty lack access to clean and safe water sources to empower communities by giving them the means to improve the quality of their lives.
Our water projects are constructed in poor and remote communities, where families often need to travel for miles away for water, or do not have a fresh, clean water supply.
Our water Sanitation programs serve everyone, from small villages to large communities.

Building a water well is
a Beautiful Sadaqah
Jariyah
----- End of picture text -----
This is extremely rewarding deed because its a form of sadaqa al jariyah (continuing source of
reward) for yourself or your loved ones, who is still alive or has returned to Allah.“When a person dies, his deeds come to an end, except for three: ongoing charity (Sadaqah Jariyah), knowledge that is benefited from, and a righteous child who prays for him.” (Sahih Muslim)
Every day communities are in need of safe sources of water for drinking, washing, cooking, rearing livestock and watering crops. We can only do that with your support which enables us to install hand pumps, wells and water tanks.
Once a man came to the Prophet, ﷺ and said, “My mother died unexpectedly and she had not made a will. I think that if she could have spoken, she would have given in charity. Will she receive a reward if I give charity on her behalf?” He said, “Yes, give charity on behalf of your mother.” [Al-Bukhaari and Muslim]
According to the scholars, the best charity for the deceased is Sadqa e Jariya.
To send sawaab (Ajr) to your loved ones, you can take part in our water project which will provide water to the extremely water-deprived areas in remote communities.
Each of these wells will provide water to humans, animals, and crops for the next 20 years. InshaAllah.
This will ease their journey ahead and will be a source of happiness on the Day of Judgement for them.
Let us send our love and Sadqah to the people we loved and always will.
Empowering the Communities
Clean and safe water improves health; it provides security and stability; it frees women and children from the daily chore of walking for hours to obtain water.

That time can be devoted instead to pursuing education and livelihoods. For a donor who provides clean water as Sadaqah Jariyah, there are

Widow Family Sponsorship Program
When we hear the word “widow”, many of us imagine a mature woman. But a high number of Afghan widows are not even in their 20s.
In Islam, widows are traditionally cared for by their sons, relatives, and the community around them. However, when they don’t have such a support system, our Prophet (pbuh) encourages all Muslims to take the responsibility of caring for widows upon them. Importance of Supporting a Widow
Gul Mina’s STORY
and Orphan in Islam.
He also reported that when a man complained to the messenger of Allah of being hard-hearted, he said, Show affection to the orphans and feed the poor.
Abu Hurairah (RA) reported Allah’s Messanger (SAW) as saying,
He who strives to serve a widow and a poor person is like the one who strives in the way of Allah.
She is a widow of 58 years old and has 7 children. Her husband was a bus driver, her husband was killed in a roadside bombast. She was a single parent had to raise and look after her kids, putting food on the table, schooling expenses and other household expenses.
She tried everywhere to find a job, but sadly she was not able to work for a living, as she had high blood pressure and diabetes. She had
many hardships in her life as a result she suffered psychologically.
She was informed by her neighbours about Aryana Aid widow family support program.
She visited Aryana Aid office, after assessment and interview she was found eligible and enrolled on our widow family support, now she gets monthly support food pack (ration) and enjoys a good life.
Why sponsor a widow family?
Official reports estimated there are almost 2 million widows in Afghanistan, one of the highest numbers in the world.
Young or mature, they all struggle to support families of four or more children on average, but their strength and tenacity prove they are more than capable to do so in the right context and with the appropriate help.

Disability Support program
280,000 Afghan children are estimated to have a disability nowadays.
The war did not only take these children’s families. It also took their mobility, security, and hope for the future. Without access to wheelchairs and other mobility equipment, many are trapped in their beds, wondering what playing outside feels like.
Others are looking inside; since they don’t have a home, they find “refuge” on busy streets, where their only way to survive is to beg or engage in menial jobs that are
not fit for a child.
Why Help a Disabled Orphan?
Supporting orphans is one of the best ways to please our Prophet (pbuh) and, through Aryana Aid, you can find your way to his heart by helping an Afghan child regain their mobility. This, in turn, helps them:
-
Recover their sense of play and security.
-
Go back to school, where they can learn new life skills and become more independent.
-
Develop like any other normal child.
You can help by donating £120 not just for a wheelchair, but for a destiny change.

RAMADAN – 2023
ical instability have forced families from their homes. Many have left their villages with nothing. Can you help them?
Blessed Month, Blessed Rewards
What is Ramadan?
After four decades of war, Afghanistan is in ruin, families have been torn apart, hundreds of communities have been uprooted, and millions of widows and orphans are struggling to find food and water. The situation has been exacerbated by unprecedented levels of inflation. With the price of foodstuff skyrocketing, displaced Afghans are on the brink of starvation.
Ramadan is a month like no other. It is a time in which Muslims refocus their energy on their relationship with Allah, through intensive worship, and abstinence from food and water during the daytime fasts.
Help Afghans living in crisis this Ramadan.
“Whoever fulfilled the needs of his brother, Allah will fulfil his needs,
11 million Afghans are facing food poverty. Drought, conflict and polit-
Give Iftar & Suhoor
Every Ramadan, your donations help us feed and uplift people living in extreme poverty. This Ramadan, your support will save people who continue to rely on us. Here are some of the ways you can help them.
Give Food: With the current crisis Afghans are facing, many people will start and end their fasts hungry this Ramadan. Can you help by donating essential Iftar packs and warm meals?
whoever brought his brother out of a discomfort, and Allah will bring him out of the discomforts of the Day of Resurrection ” (Bukhari)
Every Ramadan, Aryana Aid distributes vital lifesaving food packs to the needy families. These packages generally are locally sourced with all the basic essential foods to feed a single family for the whole month.

Give your Zakat today to empower the communities For the last 14 Amazing Years, Aryana Aid are proud to have a 100 % Zakat policy.
Zakat is 2.5% of a Muslim’s
income and savings after they have taken care of their families. It is an obligation like the five daily prayers, and is not a voluntary act of worship. Your zakat is providing relief aid to many people including food, shelter, medication and monetary contributions to the beneficiaries.
Nisab on Gold and Silver
We ensure that we have enough money for our personal expenses, including enough money to look after our own family, Zakat is only paid on assets exceeding a minimum threshold called Nisab , which is calculated on gold or silver.
Scholars have set the Nisab at:
-
88 grams of gold – around £2,700
-
612 grams of silver – around £255
The difference between the two values is due to the variations in demand for gold and silver, which
used to be more equal in the days of our Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
FIDYAH (also spelt Fidya)
When a person is unable to fast due to ill health or other reasonable excuse such as travel , they have to provide two meals for a poor person for every missed meal,this is Fidyah.
With Aryana Aid, Fidyah is £5 Per day for one individual. So, the total amount for the whole month of Ramadan would be £5 x 30 (days of fasting) = £150.00
KAFFARAH
If a fasting person deliberately breaks their fast , they are then required to either fast for another 30 consecutive days or feed 60 poor people for every missed fast.
FITRANA
Fitrana (also known as ZakatulFitr or Sadaqa Al-Fitr) is a small amount of food to be given in charity at the end of Ramadan before the Eid Salah. This amount is
obligatory and separate from the annual payment of Zakat, which is one of the five pillars of Islam.
Amount of Fitrana
The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), said each person should give away in charity an amount of £5.00 or the senior member of the household is responsible for paying the amount on behalf of the family.
The purpose of this charitable donation is to ensure all members of the community have food during the Eid holiday.
Remember Zakat is not just for Ramadan, but you can pay this at any time of the year.
Don’t worry; it’s easy to calculate your Zakat. Use our online Zakat calculator at www.aryanaaid.org. uk/zakat
