Local Causes

Debt Relief

For those trapped in unavoidable debt, we provide Shariah-compliant assistance that helps restore balance. Your contribution helps struggling families regain control and move forward free from financial hardship.

Scholarships

Education empowers individuals and uplifts communities. Your support assists students who show promise but lack means to continue their studies — helping them build better futures and contribute to the Muslim community.

Convert Care

Embracing Islam can bring isolation and financial struggle. You can help support new Muslims with financial aid, mentorship, and community connection — ensuring they are welcomed, supported, and able to thrive.

We've partnered with MAA for International Aid

Many of our donors have been asking for a trusted way to support urgent, overseas intitiatves. We’ve teamed up with one of the region’s most reputable, established charities to help you give with trust.

Eid Gifts

Simple, meaningful gifts and treats that allow children and families experiencing hardship to celebrate Eid with joy and a sense of belonging.

Ramadan Food Packs

Essential food staples provided to families facing hardship, helping them fast and break their fast without the stress of empty cupboards.

Zakat al-Fitr

A mandatory charity given before Eid prayer to purify your fast and ensure families in need can celebrate Eid with dignity and food on the table.

Food Packs for Africa

In Africa, many families face hunger amid crisis and scarcity. Your Zakat or Sadaqah funds emergency food packs that provide staples, dignity and hope to communities across borders.

Orphan Aid

Your Zakat or Sadaqah helps provide food, education, healthcare and safe housing for orphaned children. Through our partnership with MAA International, you can give hope where it's needed most.

Help Sudanese Refugees

Thousands of families in Sudan have fled violence and hunger with nothing but faith. Your Zakat or Sadaqah delivers emergency aid — food, water, shelter, and medical care.
