This Friday · Jumu'ah
Each Friday we give at Masjid al-Haram. This week it is prayer rugs — a clean place to pray instead of cardboard on the marble.
How it works: You give $10 → We buy the rug in Makkah → On Friday it is handed to a worshipper at Al-Haram → You receive the video by email.

Friday Circle
Join the circle of people whose sadaqah is at the Haram all year round. A monthly gift becomes meals, mushafs and rugs — handed out at Al-Haram on Fridays, filmed and posted with the date. One gift in every Friday's hand-out is $38 a month instead of $42 — a hot meal, a Quran or a prayer rug, whichever Friday it is.
Where your dollar goes
Stripe, our payment processor, takes about 3% + 30¢ per card payment.
We take no salary, rent no office and pay no agencies. Your donation funds our Friday hand-outs at Al-Haram and the costs of running them, such as filming, the website and outreach.
Tick "Add 3% to cover fees" at checkout to cover the card fee as well.

Who is behind this
Sadaka Live is run by a Muslim who lives in Makkah, minutes from Al-Haram. Every Friday he goes to the mosque with boxes of hot meals, mushafs and prayer rugs bought that morning in the local market — and hands them out personally, one to one: to pilgrims, to workers, to whoever is in need.
There is no office and no team between your donation and the hand-out. You give — we buy — we hand it over — and you watch it happen on video, filmed the same day and posted with the date. That is the whole system, and that is why it works.

Big charities show you a total. We show you the receipts: the date, what was given, where — and the post from that day.

How it works
Two taps, no account. A receipt lands in your email showing exactly what your amount covers.
Food, mushafs and rugs bought in the local market — no shipping, no warehouses, no cut for middlemen.
Distribution at Al-Haram, photographed the same day and added to the public log above.
Our work
Giving here is not a campaign for us — it is a routine. Morning in the local market, evening on the streets around Al-Haram, gifts passed from our hands into someone's.
We give four things, chosen because they are needed every single day: hot iftar meals for people breaking their fast, printed mushafs for worshippers who came without one, prayer rugs for those who spread cardboard on the marble, and cold water with dates in the Makkah heat.
Through Ramadan 1447 we ran a daily iftar series — thirty days, every day filmed and posted. Outside Ramadan the work continues week by week, and every hand-out ends the same way: a post with the date, so the giver can see where the sadaka went.
Sadaka given at the holiest place on earth — with your own eyes on the proof.

Yes — for hot meals. Zakat must reach people in need and become their property, so we accept it only where this is guaranteed: a hot meal handed directly to a person in clear need near Al-Haram — poor workers, stranded pilgrims, the elderly. Mushafs, rugs, dates and umbrellas go to pilgrims regardless of need, so we count them as sadaqah, not Zakat. To give Zakat: choose meals, write "Zakat" in the dedication field, and tick "Add 3% to cover fees" so your full Zakat is spent on the food itself. Zakat-marked meals are handed to those in visible need first, and every hand-out is filmed. Following a specific madhhab? Please confirm with your scholar. Use the calculator →
