- All recipients are checked for Zakat eligibility before receiving funds.
- A key aim of Zakat is to uplift the Muslim community and bring about positive, lasting change.
- Muslim religious leaders and others in financial need often want to invest in their training and development but are held back by their financial circumstances.
- NZF gives Zakat givers the opportunity to support those in need looking to invest in their future. This improves their own financial situation and benefits the community. Every individual giving their Zakat through NZF can choose how much of their Zakat will go to help people in hardship, how much to people in need of housing support, and how much to those applying for financial help with work and education.
- Scholars endorse our Zakat policy. Our approach to distributing Zakat is certified as sound by Markaz al-Iftaʾ wa’l-Qadaʾ, the Centre for Religious Rulings & Mediation. Mufti Amjad from Markaz al-Iftaʾ wa’l-Qada checks and advises on our distribution regularly. See our certifications here.
