Dar-us-Salaam: Planning Your Everlasting Legacy

Through Planned Giving, you have the opportunity to make a lasting impact by ensuring that your wealth continues to support Islamic education, community services, and the next generation of Muslims—long after you’ve returned to Allah.

Ensuring that their charity continues to benefit them even after passing. These gifts can include cash, real estate, stocks, life insurance, or other assets.

Ensuring that your wealth contributes to both your akhirah (hereafter) and the well-being of the Muslim ummah.

A residual bequest comes to Dar-us-Salaam after your estate expenses and specific bequests are fulfilled:

“I give, bequeath, and devise all (or __ percent) of the rest, residue, and remainder of my estate to Dar-us-Salaam, a non-profit organization located in College Park, Maryland, for the general and educational purposes of said organization.”

You may designate a specific amount from your estate:

“I give, bequeath, and devise to Dar-us-Salaam, a non-profit organization located in College Park, Maryland, the sum of $_______ (or __ percent of the rest, residue, and remainder of my estate) to be used to support __________ (e.g., Al-Huda School, Qur’an Institute, community programs, or another initiative). In the event the need for this support no longer exists, Dar-us-Salaam is authorized to use this bequest in a manner that aligns with the spirit of this gift and the best interests of the organization.”
