Support Student of Knowledge Appeal - Donate for a Future Scholar
About us
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said: "Whoever travels a path in search of knowledge, Allah will make easy for him a path to Paradise" (Sahih Muslim 2699).
Your Student of Knowledge Donation helps a dedicated student focus fully on studying the Qur'an and Sunnah, without the burden of unpaid tuition, food or accommodation costs.

The Problem
Across the Muslim world, many sincere students want to dedicate their lives to studying the Qur'an, Hadith and Islamic jurisprudence - but cannot afford to. Full-time Islamic study leaves little or no time for paid work, so tuition, food, accommodation and books become a genuine barrier.
Without sponsorship, many capable students are forced to abandon their studies early, and communities lose future imams, teachers and scholars before they can qualify.
This is a fresh appeal, launched to help close that gap for students who are ready and willing to learn, but simply lack the means.
Mercy Outreach Global – Student Sponsorship Programme- Help a student stay in their studies
Merci Outreach Global is a dedicated Muslim charity committed to supporting students in their pursuit of Islamic knowledge across countries such as Mauritania, Tanzania, India, and Yemen. Through our education fund, we aim to empower deserving students who aspire to study the Quran, Hadith, Fiqh, and other essential Islamic sciences, but who may lack the financial means to do so. By sponsoring a student, you can play a vital role in shaping the future of these young minds, enabling them to access quality education and become beacons of knowledge within their communities.
Your generous contributions not only facilitate their academic journey but also serve as a continuous act of Sadaqah Jariyah, benefiting both the sponsor and the student in this world and the Hereafter. Together, we can ensure that the light of Islamic knowledge continues to shine brightly for generations to come.
Why Help Now
Every term a student cannot pay their fees is a term at risk of being their last. Delaying support means a promising student may be forced to leave their studies for paid work, and that loss of momentum is hard to recover. Acting now means your Student of Knowledge Donation can be allocated to current, ongoing educational needs rather than arriving too late. Supporting Islamic education today is an investment in scholars, teachers and community leaders for decades to come.

Islamic Perspective
Allah says in the Qur'an: "Allah will raise those who have believed among you and those who were given knowledge, by degrees" (Qur'an, Surah Al-Mujadila 58:11). This verse shows the elevated status Allah gives to those who seek and hold knowledge.
The Prophet ﷺ also said: "When a person dies, his deeds end except for three: ongoing charity (Sadaqah Jariyah), beneficial knowledge, or a righteous child who prays for him" (Sahih Muslim, narrated by Abu Hurairah).
Funding a student of knowledge can combine two of these - the ongoing charity of your gift, and the beneficial knowledge that student may go on to teach others, potentially for the rest of your life and beyond.
How Your Donation Helps
Funds may be directed towards tuition fees, accommodation, food, books, educational resources, and, where appropriate, travel costs for eligible students of Islamic knowledge. We work with field teams and local partners to identify students in genuine need and to distribute funds accordingly, with regular reporting to donors on how contributions are used.

Beneficiary Story
Imagine a young man named Yusuf, studying Qur'an and Hadith full-time at a local Islamic institute. His family cannot cover his tuition and living costs alongside his studies. Without sponsorship, Yusuf would need to take paid work, slowing his progress towards becoming a qualified teacher of Islamic knowledge. A Student of Knowledge Donation could allow a student like Yusuf to remain fully focused on his studies, with hope of one day teaching others what he has learned. Hits, Fiqh, and you can sponsor them as students.
