Give Zakah – Fulfill Your Obligation, Purify Your Wealth

Zakah is a sacred pillar of Islam and a mandatory act of worship. By giving Zakah, you purify your wealth and uplift those in need.

As Allah (SWT) says in the Qur’an:
“Take, [O, Muhammad], from their wealth a charity by which you purify them and cause them increase, and invoke [Allah ‘s blessings] upon them. Indeed, your invocations are reassurance for them. And Allah is Hearing and Knowing.” (Qur’an 9:103)

Through Assalam Community Foundation, your Zakah donation directly supports vulnerable families, elderly individuals, and those struggling with poverty in Zanzibar.

Your Zakah transforms lives while fulfilling your religious duty.

What Is Zakah?

Zakah is an obligatory charity requiring Muslims to give 2.5% of their surplus wealth to eligible recipients.

It is not voluntary charity — it is a divine obligation.

“The alms are only for the poor and the needy, and those employed to collect it, and to attract the hearts of those who have been inclined [toward Islam], and to free the captives, and for those in debt, and for the cause of Allah, and for the traveler – an obligation [imposed] by Allah.” (Qur’an 9:60)

How Your Zakah Is Used?

Your Zakah donation directly supports both essential needs and eligible Assalam projects, allowing flexibility to maximize impact. Contributions may be allocated to:

  • Elderly Support: Food, shelter, and medical care for vulnerable seniors.
