| | Perpetual Charity | Explanation:
Sadqa-e-Jaariyah refers to any charity (sadqa) that, once made, brings perpetual blessings to the giver/donor.
For example: if someone donates to establish a mosque or religious institution, or even plants a tree from which people would be getting benefits, the donation would be considered sadqa-e-jaariyah, or perpetual charity. I suppose "perpetual" instead of "continuous" would more appropriate here.
I found (through web search) a book title called:
Waqf, perpetual charity and poverty alleviation
Author: Sadeq A.M.
Source: International Journal of Social Economics, Volume 29, Numbers 1-2, 2002 , pp. 135-151(17)
This may give some light on the term's English version.
