Support Education For Bissau Students (Zakat Eligible)
Support Education For Bissau Students (Zakat Eligible)
Six years ago, promising students from villages in Guinea-Bissau were brought to The Gambia to study the Qur’an and the foundations of Islam under qualified scholars. Today, many of these students are now ḥuffāẓ, having memorized the Qur’an after years of study. This Ramadan, some of these same students stood and led the Tarawīḥ prayers, a powerful sign of how far this effort has come. They will now continue their training as assistant teachers before eventually returning to Guinea-Bissau to teach in their own villages, ensuring that communities have teachers who truly understand their people and their needs.The money raised through this link is solely for the individual needs of the students such as food, clothing etc. The money raised will not be used to pay their teacher's salaries, thus making this campaign zakat eligible.
Renovate Kunte Kinte Lodge
Renovate Kunte Kinte Lodge
Haji Kunte Kinte’s Lodge holds an important place in the early history of Shaykh Muhamed’s work in The Gambia. The lodge also served as the first zawiya, a simple gathering place where people came together for learning, reflection, and companionship.When Shaykh Muhamed first arrived in the country, it was Haji Kunte Kinte who welcomed him into his home. Over time, the lodge became a place where visitors and students could gather and where the early foundations of this work began to take shape. Nestled among mango and papaya trees, it quietly hosted many who came seeking knowledge and community.Haji Kunte Kinte has long been known for his generosity and also donated the land that now houses the Kairo Clinic. Today, in his old age and facing health challenges, we are raising funds to renovate the lodge so it can host guests again and provide a modest source of income for him and his family.

Sponsoring Students to Study Abroad
Sustainable Gambia supports students in pursuing authentic Islamic studies abroad as part of a long-term effort to preserve sacred knowledge. Rooted in the Islamic principle that seeking knowledge is an act of worship, this initiative allows students to study under qualified scholars, deepen their understanding of the Qur’an and Sunnah, and return to serve their communities as teachers and mentors. Sponsoring Islamic education is a form of ongoing charity (ṣadaqah jāriyah), where the benefit extends far beyond the individual student to families and future generations. This project is zakat eligible.

Mosque Project Initiatives In Gambia and Guinea-Bissau
In many of the communities where Sustainable Gambia works, the mosque becomes the heart of village life. It is not only a place for prayer, but a space where people gather to learn the Qur’an, strengthen their faith, and build a shared sense of community.For villages that have recently embraced Islam or lack proper places of worship, a mosque provides structure, guidance, and stability. It becomes a center for learning, reflection, and unity. By supporting mosque construction, Sustainable Gambia helps establish the spiritual foundation that allows these communities to grow and thrive for generations.
