Over 600 Ismaili Volunteer Leaders gathered in Spring, TX for the annual Volunteer Leadership Orientation. We caught up with our Youth Volunteers across the region to learn what khidma means to them. Here is what they had to say!

Principles of Service
My teacher Shaykh Abdal Hakim Murad advises us that Khidma (Service) is one of the best ways to Heal ourselves

Khidma is more than an action, it's a way of life.
Serving others with sincerity, humility, and love is one of the most beautiful principles we can live by.
Let your service be a reflection of your heart.

Over 1,500+ volunteers across the SE region and their families came together at the Ismaili Volunteers Celebration on October 13 to celebrate our shared tradition of Khidma. Together, they rekindled old connections and forged new ones through friendly sports competitions, garba, and food!
Watch this video for a recap of some of our favorite moments from this event.

Twelve-year-old Kazem Abbas lives in a remote
village in the town of Al-Faw, south of Basra, Iraq,
surrounded by desert. His mother built him a simple
procession stand made of palm leaves, an old
blanket, and a woman’s cloak—his small sanctuary to serve the pilgrims of Imam Hussain (AS).
With the little money his father gives him, Kazem buys water and juice to distribute to those walking towards Karbala, believing that even the smallest offering holds great value in the scale of love for Imam Hussain.
Kazem lives under difficult circumstances. His sister has a disability, and his brother is living with autism.
Fatima, who helps him at these moments of service, is even younger than he is.
His most heartfelt dream is for his sister to be healed so she, too, can join him in this path of selfless giving. All that Kazem wishes, from the depths of his young heart, is to see Imam Hussain-just once-so he can hug him.

The youth and children of Iraq 🇮🇶 are such an inspiration in servant leadership. May Allah bless them and give them strength to continue serving in the love of Hussain (a). #arbaeen #karbala #iraq #najaf #ziyara #khidma
It’s hard to believe… but it’s come to an end. 💔
Nearly 2 months of khidma, from London to Karbala.
Most have already made their way back home.
What an honour it was to serve in London at The Hyderi Arbaeen Walk, and then to continue that service in the blessed land of Karbala.
These moments, these nights, these tears, this khidma, will stay with us forever.
In’sha’Allah, with His mercy, we will return next year again to serve the zuwar of Aba Abdillah(as).
Until then… the memories remain, and the heart longs for Karbala.

A memorable evening with our amazing Ihya families, volunteers and supporters. Everything about it was beyond our expectations.
May Allah bless everyone for their time, donations and above all, their duas. May Allah bless you all with His Mercy.
Please remember Ihya in your duas so that we can achieve our aims.
God Bless🙏🏼

Serving the needs of others is a way to become closer to Allah (swt).
the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "The Muslim is the brother of the Muslim, he doesn't oppress him and doesn't put him into ruin, and whoever is concerned for the needs of his brother, Allah is concerned for his needs, and whoever relieves a Muslim of a burden, Allah will relieve him of a burden from the burdens of the Day of Judgement and whoever covers (the faults of) a Muslim, Allah will cover (his faults) on the Day of Judgement."

Mawlana Hazar Imam has approved a set of new guidelines for our uniformed volunteers who render service day in, day out, in Jamatkhanas and beyond.
In his recent message to the Jamat, Hazar Imam said that the aim is “to bring about standardisation and parity in the various elements relating to the organisation of the uniformed volunteers, without compromising their spirit of service.”
