Why join the mission?

Whichever team you join, here’s what you can expect along the way.

Sadaqah jariyahThrough your work here, you give back to a community and a cause that aims to benefit thousands directly, and many more indirectly. In doing so, you create for yourself sadaqah jariyah: a reward that continues long after your time on this team, and on this earth, has ended.May Allah keep our intentions pure.“When a man dies, all his deeds come to an end except for three things: sadaqah jariyah (ceaseless charity), knowledge which is beneficial, or a virtuous descendant who prays for him.”Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, narrated by Muslim
Development & pathwaysAt AQ, we are deeply committed to the growth and development of our people. While the primary goal is sadaqah jariyah, we want the journey to be one where every person grows along the way.
