قال الرسول صلى الله عليه وسلم ( أحب الأعمال إلى الله أدومها وإن قل) أخرجه البخاري في صحيحة
The Prophet (PBUH) said (in the meaning of Hadith): The most beloved good deeds to Allah (SW) are the most sustained.

What is a Sustainer?

A donor who pledges monthly recurring contributions to the Operations fund. A simple income based formula to determine fair obligation to your local Masjid is to pay 1% of your monthly gross income in monthly contributions. For example a $10K gross monthly income translates to $10K x 1% = $100 a month. Any amount will make a difference. Following are three levels of Individual and Business Sustainers:

Individual

Silver

$50+ monthly

Gold

$100+ monthly

Platinum

$200+ monthly

Business
