Our Protocol for Building a Seated Well💧

Site selection and preparation: The team begins by identifying a strategic location that is both accessible to the community and suitable for drilling. This step includes checking the groundwater table and soil conditions to ensure the project’s viability.

Installation of a solid concrete enclosure: A strong concrete structure is built to secure the well and form the base of the future water point. This element is essential to ensure the stability and durability of the well.

Excavation: Digging is carried out manually or mechanically until the required depth is reached. The goal is to access a reliable water table and provide sufficient flow for collective use.

Pump installation: A manual or electric pump is installed based on local resources (grid or solar energy). This system ensures a steady and practical water supply.

Connection of taps: Five taps are connected to the pump to allow multiple families to draw water simultaneously. This setup helps organize access and reduces waiting times.

Seating area construction: 12 to 16 seats are built around the well, creating a comfortable and social space suitable for gatherings and for the elderly.

Final checks and handover: Water quality is verified, finishing touches are secured, and the well is officially handed over to the beneficiaries, along with GPS coordinates and visual documentation.

Building a Well is One of the Best Forms of Sadaqa jariya

The Well: A Source of Continuous Charity

Providing access to water by building a well is considered one of the most valued charitable acts in Islam, as its benefits are long-lasting and touch an entire community.

According to a hadith reported by Muslim, the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said:

“When the son of Adam dies, his deeds come to an end except for three things: ongoing charity (sadaqa jariya), beneficial knowledge, or a righteous child who prays for him.”

A well perfectly embodies this concept of ongoing charity: as long as families continue to use this precious water, the donor continues to receive rewards, even after their passing.

Yes, the water is tested before commissioning to ensure it is clean and suitable for daily consumption.

Absolutely. In Islam, building a well falls under ongoing charity (ṣadaqa jāriya). The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said:

“When the son of Adam dies, his deeds come to an end except for three things: ongoing charity (ṣadaqa jāriya), beneficial knowledge, or a righteous child who prays for him.”

It depends on the local context: a sturdy manual pump may be preferred in areas without reliable power, while an electric pump (often solar-powered) is installed when possible.

The taps and the pump require regular monitoring/maintenance to ensure they function properly. Local teams are made aware of these practices to extend the lifespan of the installation.
