TCMV Beyond the Vote Summit - Group 6

*The Canadian-Muslim Vote (TCMV) is *organizing this fundraiser.

The Canadian-Muslim Vote (TCMV) is a national, non-partisan, charitable organization established in 2015, dedicated to increasing civic engagement and political education within the Muslim community. TCMV empowers Canadian Muslims to use their voices and actively participate in the democratic process, fostering a more informed and engaged community that contributes positively to Canada’s democracy.

Since its founding, TCMV has reached 2.5 million touchpoints through various initiatives, including community events, social media campaigns, phone calls, and door knocking. Our social media efforts alone have garnered over 1.5 million impressions, and our "Visit My Mosque" campaign has had a nationwide reach of 5.5 million. Since 2018, our online platforms have grown by over 400%, reflecting increased community engagement. Most recently launching our new flagship program, The Civic Leadership Institute.

*The Civic Leadership Institute*
The Civic Leadership Institute, features our 8-week-long interactive Fellowship program that educates Canadian Muslim youth and equips them with a political toolbox to navigate the political landscape. Currently offered in Toronto, Vancouver and Ottawa, the Fellowship is set to expand to other major cities across Canada soon. The fellowships culminate in this upcoming summit to bring together individuals from across Canada—particularly youth—who are eager to engage with and learn from esteemed leaders like yourself. We believe your presence at this reception would offer valuable insight and inspiring conversations with the next generation of Canadian citizens and leaders.

* Examples of Sadaqah *
It can be everything from an act of kindness to a monetary donation. For example, Sadaqah can be a voluntary donation. It can be helping someone in need, giving a smile, or it can even be removing a harmful object from your path. Aqiqah , Fidya and Kaffarah are also examples of Sadaqah.

Some examples include:
Donating money to someone in need Making food for others Teaching Qur’an Smiling at others Watering a plant Taking care of an animal Removing something harmful from someone’s path




* What is Sadaqah *
Sadaqah is the term used to describe a voluntary act of charity that is wide-reaching, for example a form of monetary charity or an act of kindness that can be performed in any amount, at any time of the year.

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) emphasised the benefits of giving Sadaqah in a number of sayings:
/“Sadaqah extinguishes sin as water extinguishes fire.” /(Tirmidhi)

Therefore, any act of kindness or support extended to other beings (including animals) for the sake of Allah (SWT), can be considered a Sadaqah or charity.
* What does Sadaqah mean *
The literal translation is ‘righteousness’. However, in the modern-day context, it has come to mean ‘voluntary charity’. The word stems from ‘sidq’, which means sincerity. This suggests that Sadaqah is a righteous behaviour, which shows sincerity of faith.

* How Islamic Relief uses your Sadaqah donations *
For many of the world’s most vulnerable, your donations are a lifeline.

When you provide a Sadaqah donation to Islamic Relief, you can change the future of an orphan in need. Through your vital donations, they are provided with a way home to food, shelter, an education, and a chance at a brighter future.

* The Impact of your Sadaqah Donations *
Giving Sadaqah can help provide crucial medical care that people facing the effects of war and crisis can seek relief in. For example our brothers and sisters in Yemen, Afghanistan, Syria and Palestine.

They also provide livelihoods to thousands of people and communities. This helps to break the poverty cycle and lifting individuals in need into wellbeing.

Your Sadaqah donations are simply transformative.

* What is the difference between Sadaqah and Sadaqah Jariyah? *
Essentially, Sadaqah Jariyah is what today’s international development sector calls ‘sustainable development’. Islam promoted this over 1400 years ago. Sadaqah Jariyah encompasses the majority of the sustainable development programmes carried out by both Islamic and other NGOs today.

* What are the benefits of Sadaqah? *
Sadaqah is a voluntary act of charity given for the sole purpose of pleasing Allah (SWT), without expecting anything in return.
We know that Prophet Muhammad ﷻ was  very generous. He (ﷻ) would give his food, money, and belongings to the poor and often let himself go hungry. In summary, the Prophet Muhammad  ﷻ  had impeccable character. Therefore, it is an immense reward in following his exemplary behaviour.

* Why is Sadaqah important in Islam? *
Sadaqah not only purifies one’s own wealth, but also helps to establish economic stability through the flow of wealth in society. Through the good deed of giving, Muslims are bonded together. Therefore, Muslims are instructed by Allah (SWT) to try to give for His sake and spread generosity.

* Social Justice *
Our work is founded on enabling people and institutions to fulfil the rights of the poor and vulnerable. We work to empower the dispossessed towards realizing their God-given human potential and develop their capabilities and resources.
