MAKKAH — The Muslim World League (MWL) has unveiled one of its largest water projects in Africa, in the country of Malawi. MWL Secretary General Sheikh Mohammed Al-Issa, Malawi's First Lady Monica Chakwera, Minister of Water and Sanitation Abida Sidik Mia, and other government and humanitarian officials attended the inauguration ceremony. A large number of local people gathered to witness the ceremony.

Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Al-Issa emphasized the project’s strong alignment with Islamic humanitarian values, citing the Prophet’s saying: “In every moist liver, there is a reward.” This means that in giving something to every living creature there is a reward.

He noted that this connection to shared values is a testament to the project’s significance and the support it deserves.

In her address, Chakwera expressed gratitude for the MWL's efforts, highlighting the project's transformative impact on thousands of residents previously grappling with water scarcity, pollution-related diseases, and untimely deaths.

The project, benefiting six regions, utilizes solar energy for sustainability and features storage units and pumps. It marks a significant step towards ensuring safe and clean water access for a population deprived of this essential resource.
