Your Zakat can save many lives!
Zakat is an act of worship and a means of purifying one's wealth. By giving Zakat it cleanses our hearts against selfishness and greed. By doing so we acknowledge it is in fact not our own but a blessing to be shared. If the individual’s annual wealth or assets equals to or exceeds a certain financial threshold (the nisab) they are required to donate 2.5% of their wealth to those in need. The Nisab is defined as 612.4g of Silver or 87.5g of Gold.
“And establish prayer, give Zakat and obey the Messenger so that mercy may be shown to you”
(Quran, 24:56)
With the blessings of Almighty Allah and your trust, through the support of Zakat donations given by you over the years have allowed us to provide free cancer treatment for countless patients hailing from impoverished family background.
There are countless vulnerable communities across our country in financial difficulties, unable to get the desired cancer treatment to their beloved ones. Zakat given by you during this holy month of Ramadan can help those who need it the most, especially when they need it.
Your Zakat is a beautiful pillar of Islam that we will ensure goes to the neediest. This includes emergency medical treatment and care of cancer patients along with other social welfare activities.
For 23 Amazing Years, we at CARF are proud to have had – and continue to have - a 100% Zakat policy!
Our 100% Zakat policy means every single penny of your Zakat donation will go directly to those who need it most 100% of the time – giving you 100% of the reward.
Zakat is one of the pillars of Islam that must be met by the Muslims who meet certain criteria.
It is a particular amount that need be paid from particular categories of wealth, to particular categories of beneficiaries, with a particular criteria. Zakat is a blessing, symbolising purity, kindness, and a contribution to the development of entitled recipients.
There are eight categories of beneficiaries who are eligible to receive Zakat, which are clearly stated in the Quran (Surah At-Taubah:60) Allah (swt) says in this verse: “Zakah expenditures are only for the poor and for the needy and for those employed to collect (zakah) and for bringing hearts together (for Islam) and for freeing captives (or slaves) and for those in debt and for the cause of Allah and for the (stranded) traveller – an obligation (imposed) by Allah. And Allah is Knowing and Wise.”
Any Muslim who possesses the required nisaab (the minimum amount of wealth that one must have before zakat is payable) for one whole year is bound to pay Zakat on that wealth. According to Islamic regulations, Zakat is 2.5% of one year’s total cumulative wealth.
Zakat Al Maal can be paid any time during the year and many choose to pay their Zakat during Ramadan.
