One More Meal Campaign
IJRA'ĀT SAʿD IBN ʿUBĀDAH رضي الله عنه
INTRODUCTION
Nothing can be achieved with excellence if students are inadequately nourished. Recognizing this, Madrasah ‘Urwah has undertaken the noble task of ensuring that students receive wholesome and sufficient meals—fueling both their bodies and their pursuit of sacred knowledge.
Key Efforts & Projects
Madrasah ‘Urwah aims to provide daily meals to all students, ensuring that their physical well-being is cared for while they dedicate themselves to the path of knowledge.
- Breakfast and lunch are prepared for students at their respective premises.
- Boarding students are provided with additional meals and support.
- Feeding programmes extend to students in surrounding regions and affiliated institutions.
This initiative ensures that no student has to choose between hunger and learning.
Inspiration
The project is inspired by the remarkable generosity of Saʿd ibn ʿUbādah رضي الله عنه, a Companion renowned for feeding others.
- His household was a haven of hospitality, where at times he personally fed up to 80 of the Aṣḥāb al-Ṣuffah.
- During a year when he was in the path of Allāh, his son Qays رضي الله عنه demonstrated the same spirit by providing 12,000 kilograms of provisions for the guests of Rasūlullāh ﷺ.
- The Khazraj would say of him: “He is our master and the son of our master. They provided food during droughts, transported the weary, welcomed guests, gave in times of disaster, and protected the community.”
In honour of his unmatched generosity, this campaign carries his name.
Through this campaign, every donation goes directly toward preparing and serving meals for students of knowledge. By sponsoring “one more meal”, you ensure that young hearts and minds can focus on learning the Dīn without the distraction of hunger.
