Ramadan is a time of worship, reflection and most importantly compassion for those in need.
Ramadan 2026 is a blessed time of fasting, prayer, reflection and generosity. It is a month when hearts soften, faith strengthens and believers increase their charity to seek Allah’s pleasure.
In these challenging times, many families in our community struggle to put food on the table. Banbury Madni Masjid is launching a Food Pack appeal to support those in need.
A Ramadan Food Pack is a collection of essential staple foods designed to help families meet their nutritional needs throughout Ramadan. These packs typically include items like rice, lentils, cooking oil, dates, and other staples that provide energy and sustenance for daily fasting and worship.
Food packs ensure families have food to break their fast and eat before dawn — allowing them to focus on spiritual growth without the stress of hunger.
Millions of families around the world go into Ramadan without enough food. Without regular meals:
Your donation to the Ramadan Food Pack appeal gives families dignity, nutrition, and strength to complete their fasts with energy and joy.
Thanks to supporters like you, Ramadan food programmes have reached over a number of people in more than a number of countries. Through global partnerships and local distribution teams, food packs are delivered where they are needed most — from conflict-affected regions to areas facing extreme poverty.
Feeding the fasting is one of the most beloved acts of worship in Islam. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said that whoever helps break the fast of a fasting person will receive the same reward as the fasting person, without reducing their reward in any way. This means your support brings dual blessings — to the donor and the recipient.
Millions of people across crisis-affected regions, including Syria, Yemen, Gaza, Lebanon, Sudan and other countries, lack consistent access to food. Food packs are delivered directly to those in need, offering life-saving nutrition and relief.
Feeding others is a highly valued act in Islam. Providing food for those in need is a form of Sadaqah and can be eligible for Zakat when given to those who meet the criteria of need.
Banbury Madni Masjid’s Food Pack initiative focuses on reaching those most in need across crisis‑affected regions and communities facing severe food shortages. Our partners work in multiple countries to deliver these packs where they are needed most.
