Sponsor an Orphan Today
MAA International offers a unique opportunity for individuals, organizations, schools, and families to make a lasting impact. With just AU$70 a month, you can sponsor an orphan, ensuring they receive the care and support they need.Care for an Orphan: A Sunnah of our Prophet PBUH
Nurturing an orphan with essentials such as healthy food, medical care, clean clothes, and access to education not only provides them with a protective environment but also empowers them to reach their full potential. The act of orphan sponsorship in Islam holds a special place, as it resonates with the life of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
Our beloved Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was himself an orphan and encouraged us to assist the orphan. As it is mentioned in the Hadith, he said:
“I and the person who takes care of an orphan will be together like this in Paradise.” [then he raised his index and middle finger together] - Bukhari
By participating in MAA’s 1 to 1 Orphan Care program, you're not just making a charitable contribution; you're following in the sunnah of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). Our initiative ensures that every child under our care, whether across Africa, Asia, or the Middle East, including Palestine, Yemen, Ghana, Indonesia, Pakistan, or Uganda, receives:
-
Food - The food provided not only helps the orphan but the family.
-
Education - Your child will get access to education which will ensure a bright future for him/her
-
Health - Access to medical care ensures that your child lives a long, healthy and fruitful life.
-
Shelter - Your monthly contribution helps the orphans with shelter packs.
MAA is deeply committed to supporting orphans around the world through our Orphan Aid General Support Programme and other welfare projects. Whether you're curious about sponsoring an orphan, seeking to contribute your sadaqah, or wondering how zakah can be utilized for such noble causes, MAA offers a range of options to support.

Note: At MAA, we believe we have a duty to fight injustice at every level, big and small. It’s not enough to give aid to the most vulnerable and marginalised after harm has befallen them; we must stand up for them and empower their voices. To fulfil our collective obligation, MAA may dedicate a portion of your sadaqah donations to this cause to create change and dismantle the forces that harm the most marginalised.
