The A‘akirah Trust Fund Gift Box is a thoughtfully crafted kit that blends sacred purpose with timeless practicality, inviting real, heartfelt conversations with your loved ones about what truly matters as you prepare for life beyond this world, and offering a beautiful, inspiring path to start saving for your own Esal-e Sawab which In’Sha’Allah will benefit you as soon as you enter the grave.
What’s inside:
- Esal - e - Sawab money box: which is crafted from the natural wood it arrived in, preserving its inherent character—including dents, markings, and its real texture. It’s handmade, chosen over a factory finish to reflect how we age and the different chapters of life. We felt it was a fitting touch for the project.Designed to feel authentic, secure, vintage, and heirloom-worthy, the money box invites you to save now and commit one third of your wealth to projects whilst your living which benefit you in the grave / hereafter immediately after you have passed.
- My Last Wishes journal : The journal is simple and covers the basic essentials for you to write about—along with ample writing paper to add your own chapters and important topics you feel need to be included personal to you. It’s a simple, basic straightforward guide designed to spark conversations with your loved ones, bound with a binder, so pages can be added or removed as life evolves. Each entry is dated and signed for authenticity. Chapters cover the basic topics one should discuss such as ghusl, Qaza fast, any debt owed , any apologies that need ones needs to seek, topice to write about in a Will and a thoughtful 1/3 charity request and a heartfelt letter section where you can write letters to your loved ones. For example, write down your Qaza fast, so if you pass suddenly and did not make them up, a fidya can be paid on your behalf, debts you haven’t paid, or apologies you never got a chance to seek, can all be written down so that your family can do this on your behalf in your absence with the intention that you have a peaceful resting without punishment in your grave. The journal case is crafted from real leather and hand-stitched to ensure it lasts for years to come.
The journal chapters serve as a guide—these are the basic entries to complete. Feel free to add your own chapters as you see fit using the binder to add or remove pages, which is exactly why it’s designed with a ‘binder.’
Write a yearly savings plan that allocates one third of wealth to be used while you’re living, empowering you to give back as Sadqah Jariah / Esale Sawab rather than leaving it to others after you’ve passed, there is no guarantee anyone will so the goal is simple, “don’t rely on others.” The soul purpose of this project is to look after your own A’akirah now or at the very least gets you thinking about it.

Key characteristics
- Vintage, time-worn aesthetic achieved through a non-factory finish on natural wood, giving the money box an enduring, cherished appearance. The box is hand made crafted from natural, mature wood to evoke aging gracefully, mirroring how we grow older. It preserves the wood’s natural character—its textures and markings, celebrating ‘imperfection’. Rather than chasing perfection or a polished aesthetic, we opted for a non factory finish, as we wanted to preserve the imperfections, the wood has been kept in its natural form. WHY? It embraces the features that reflect the chapters, layers, and experiences we accumulate in life over time.
- It is sturdy and secure, with vintage brass locks that evoke security and elegance.
- The packaging box is designed to be reused as a memory box to store your journal and cherished keepsakes not to be thrown away.
