Ramadan 2026 Share the Blessings
As the blessed month of Ramadan arrives once again, it brings a time of reflection, compassion, and closeness to Allah (SWT). While many prepare for a month of fasting and worship, families across Afghanistan continue to live with daily hardship shaped by war, displacement, and poverty.
This Ramadan offers an opportunity to respond with sincere giving that brings
relief, stability, and reassurance to those who need it most.

Humanitarian Needs
An estimated 22.9 million people in Afghanistan require humanitarian assistance, representing more than half of the population, and 12 million children face severe
hunger. Years of conflict, environmental disasters, and the displacement of 5.8
million Afghan refugees have left countless families struggling to survive.
Many have been forced to flee their homes due to drought and violence, often
leaving with nothing to rely on and little certainty about the future.
Through the support of donors, meaningful progress has already been achieved:
480 families received Ramadan food packs last year
500 families are supported through monthly food packs, providing regular
nourishment
5,800 families received fresh meat through the Qurbani Project
The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said:
“Whoever eases the hardship of a believer, Allah will ease his hardship on the Day of Resurrection.” (Bukhari)
Mariam’s Journey Finding Hope in Ramadan
Mariam is a widow and mother of three from Ghazni. After losing her husband during the war, she was left to care for her children alone with no stable income. Meeting even the most basic needs became an overwhelming challenge.
This Ramadan, your support continues to bring balance and stability to her
household:
Mariam is among 35 widows who joined the Widow Skill Development Programme
and, within one year, was able to establish a small handicraft business
Her income now supports her household and allows her to send her children to
school regularly.
Her family benefits from access to clean water through one of the water wells and pumps funded by Aryana Aid
Today, Mariam and her children are able to observe Ramadan without constant
anxiety over their basic needs.
The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said:
“The one who supports a widow or a poor person is like one who strives in the path
of Allah.” (Bukhari)
How You Can Help
For many families, fasting is accompanied by uncertainty about their next meal. Your contribution helps provide Iftar meals and food packs, allowing households to observe Ramadan with nourishment, dignity, and peace of mind.
Give Safe Drinking Water
In remote areas of Afghanistan, access to safe drinking water remains limited. Families often travel long distances to collect water, placing additional strain on
daily life.
Donations have already enabled the installation of 25 water wells and pumps,
easing hardship for families and children.
Water and Sanitation Project A Sustainable Gift for Communities
Access to clean water is not only a basic human necessity but also a source of lasting benefit for communities.
Generosity in Water:
“Whoever gives water to a thirsty person, Allah will give them a reward in
Paradise.” (Sunan Ibn Majah)
Water projects represent one of the most enduring forms of charitable impact,
providing benefits that extend far beyond the immediate moment.
In many rural areas of Afghanistan, the absence of safe and reliable water sources has severe consequences. Families face lost income, wasted time, and increased vulnerability to disease. Children, in particular, are disproportionately affected, with water-borne illnesses contributing significantly to preventable morbidity and mortality.
Aryana Aid is committed to addressing this critical challenge. Through its Water and Sanitation Program, the organisation drills and installs sustainable water well
systems and delivery infrastructure that serve communities for years to come. These projects ensure that thousands of people gain safe, reliable, and accessible water, improving health outcomes, convenience, and overall quality of life.
The programme provides:
Safe and Affordable Water Systems:
Designed for both small villages and larger communities, ensuring wide accessibility.
Long-Term Community Benefits: Reliable water sources reduce time spent collecting water, allowing children to attend school and adults to engage in productive
activities.
Health and Hygiene Improvements:
Reducing the prevalence of water-borne diseases through clean, safe water access.
Sustainability and Maintenance Support: Aryana Aid ensures that water systems remain operational through training local communities in upkeep and management.
Through this initiative, Aryana Aid not only transforms daily life but also contributes to the long-term resilience and well-being of the communities, making water a true gift that keeps giving.
Jabar Khail’s Story
Jabar Khail, a father of four, recalls the daily struggle of travelling long distances to
collect water from shared sources used by animals. These long trips to unclean water often caused sickness among his children and left little time for work.
With the construction of a community well funded by donors, clean water is now nearby. This has allowed him to care for his children’s health and focus on earning an income to support his family.
Many families continue to face similar challenges and depend on ongoing support.
Amir’s Story
Amir is an 8-year-old boy from Kabul who lost both parents in a bomb blast when he was just 4 years old. Left alone, he survived on the streets until Aryana Aid found him and brought him into their orphan programme.
Today, Amir receives meals, clothing, healthcare, and schooling. He hopes to one
day become an engineer and help rebuild his country. Your support has given him not only stability, but a sense of family and a future.
The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said:
“I and the sponsor of an orphan will be together in Paradise“ (Bukhari)
Sponsor an Orphan
Support from donors has transformed the lives of 330 orphans, ensuring access to
education, healthcare, and consistent care. Over the past 16 years, Aryana Aid has
supported hundreds of Afghan orphan children globally.
Today, 2,410 orphans are enrolled in Aryana Aid schools, where they receive
education alongside protection and guidance. Support is also available for children
with disabilities through wheelchair provision.
Give Zakat
Your Zakat supports refugees, widows, and orphans facing severe hardship. By giving Zakat during Ramadan, you fulfil a religious obligation while helping families
meet their essential needs.
