The vision of AIMS is to train the
children of our community today to
be the soldiers of Imam Zamana’s
(A.T.F) army tomorrow. At AIMS,
We highly encourage children to
acquire knowledge by accepting it
with reasoning. We believe, that
information shouldn’t be just
crammed into the young mind, so
we try to inculcate knowledge
through understanding based on
reasoning as the knowledge
acquired through reasoning stays in
the minds, forever.
We believe in inculcating Islamic
values to the children and groom
these children in such a way that
Islamic practices become a part of
their day to day routine and they
accept religion willingly.
We believe in indirect teaching
methodology of facilitating children
to learn through programs such as:

to create awareness in masses and
professionals, about the Islamic
Majalis and public discourses are
the best and most effective
medium to spread the teachings of

are mostly respected Ulama and
knowledgeable scholars, there is a
dire need of female preachers who
could explain the true message of

In order to fulfill the need, Zahra (S.A)
Academy initiated Zakri course

trained and given extensive Islamic
knowledge to enable them to guide
the society through Majalis and
lectures all year round.

Relief Efforts of
Zahra (s.a.) Academy
Heavy monsoon rains, the rapid
melting of snow and outbursts from
glacial lakes from 16 to 22 July 2015
led to flash floods and the flooding
of the Indus River in various locations
across Pakistan. Chitral District in
Khyber Pakhtunkhwa had been
badly hit with an estimated 285,000
people affected. Areas in Gilgit
Baltistan, Punjab and Sindh were
also affected.
Zahra (s.a.) Academy launched an
Emergency Appeal on 05 August
to support victims of flood with
provision of emergency health
services, food, water and sanitation
services, emergency shelter and
essential household assistance.
Alhumdolillah Momineen responded
quickly to our relief appeal by
donating to the emergency relief
fund and we were able to help
flood hit people with

Toilet Project
There are millions of people in
Pakistan who do not have access to
a toilet which is a basic human need.
Absence of toilets at home robs
women of basic human dignity.
In 2013, the UN officially recognized
November 19 as World Toilet Day to
make sanitation for all a global
development priority.
According to a report published in
Dawn March, 9th , 2015: "There are
41 million people who do not have
access to a toilet in Pakistan and asa result they are defecating in the
open. Open defecation has
significant health and nutritional
consequences. The problem can
spread disease and lead to intestinal
infections, which can contribute to
stunting in young children meaning
that children don't grow as tall as
they would otherwise, and it can alsoaffect a child's brain development.
Taking the situation into considera-
tion, Zahra (S.A) Academy initiated
its Toilet Construction Project in 2014
to assist households build toilets so
they don't have to go to the fields.
In the first phase, we were able to
build in Dec. 2014 in DeraMurad Jamali, Baluchistan. In 2015,
we built at the cost of
Rs. 40,000 each for Sadaat families in
rural areas of Tehsil Kallurkot, District
Bhakkar - Punjab.

50 more toilets
Uplifting Project
Due to continued economic
instability and conflicts for different
reasons, most people have to live in
poverty especially those who live in
remote areas of Pakistan.
Alhamdulillah, Zahra (S.A.) Academy
has been working for the spiritual
and financial elevation of the
deprived and needy persons
especially widows, orphans, disabled
and the families of martyrs.

Our motive is to move them towards
self-reliance so that they don’t need
to seek assistance.
There is no doubt that the social
upliftment programs play remarkable
role in the lives of people living in
under-developing countries like
Pakistan. Uplifting projects among
other charitable services have a
distinguish position, it is in fact an
Ebadat which enables the deserving
people to earn their own livelihood.
It releases them from economic
distress and moves them towards
self-reliance.

Ramadan in remote areas of Sindh,
Baluchistan and Punjab where
people cannot afford a regular
preacher due to lack of funds. In this
holy month we make efforts to
reduce the deficiency of religious
and spiritual programs by sending
Muballigheen who stay in distant
areas the whole month for preaching
and teaching religion.
Distribution of
Zakat e Fitra
The Holy Prophet (saww) said: "The
Fast remains suspended between
the heavens and the earth until Fitra
is discharged". Fitra is paid to the
needy people so that they can fulfill
their needs on the Eid day, since Eid
day is to be celebrated by all
Muslims.
In 2015, Zahra (s.a.) Academy
collected Rs. 461,535 as Zakat e Fitra
and distributed it among Sadat
(Rs. 87,130) and non-Sadat
(Rs. 374,405) families of martyrs,widows, injured and disabled
persons.
During Ramadan, it is especially hard
for the destitute to meet the needs of
their family – a food parcel from
Zahra (s.a.) Academy can make a
big difference for them.

Hussain (A.S.)
Water Project
It is an admitted fact that water has
a great importance in human life but
unfortunately most of the remote and
less-privileged areas of Pakistan are
deprived of this necessity.
Ensuring a safe and sustainable water
supply in rural areas is of fundamental
importance for rural development
and access to basic water is a crucial
right, vital for development and the
reduction of poverty.
Due to the increasing occurrence of
water stress and scarcity and the
mismanagement of water, there is an
urgent demand for innovative
solutions.
In response to this demand Zahra
(S.A.) Academy initiated Al-Atash Ya
Hussain (A.S.) Water Project in 2011
to help poverty-stricken families of
urban and rural areas of all four
provinces of the country gain easy
access to safe drinking water. We are
continuously striving to resolve this
painful issue with the help of Allah
(s.w.t.) and with generous donations
from momineen and mominat.
Alhamdulillah, in 2015 we managed
to install a total of 306 normal hand
pumps in urban and rural areas of
Sindh, Baluchistan, KPK and Punjab.

At some places underground water

Alhamdolillah, in 2015, we managed

Canal Pumps
The main source of water in rural
areas is the hand pump but in areas
where underground potable water
is not available we have built water
storage tanks which are filled with the
help of canal pumps. The pump
draws water from the source and
stores it in water storage tanks for
later use.
Samar Pumps

Alhamdulillah two such canal pumps
along with water storage tanks have
been installed at village seeta (700
feet long canal) and village
Bahadurpur (300 feet long canal) of
Tehsil KN Shah, Sindh.
Water Pools
There are some regions in interior
Sindh where the underground water
is not available or has become
harmful for life as a result of
experiments done in search of
natural gas. To resolve this painful
issue there was a need to construct
large pools to store water drawn from
a remote water source via canals
with the help of a heavy suction

problems. Facilities like will writing,
resolving disputes, receiving religious

Books are the main source of
Tabligh in the areas where a
muballigh can't reach, it is through
reading material that we can clarify
many confusions and questions
which rise in the minds of people
and through books we can fulfill the
spiritual needs of those who can't
approach the scholars because of
any reason.
In short there is no alternate of book

Islam is concerned otherwise Allah
