Your Zakat is Needed in Every City in Alberta

Do you know any Muslims who are unable to meet their basic needs in Canada? A family going hungry or on the verge of being evicted from their house? How many people in Alberta do you think need your Zakat? Should your Zakat be given locally in Alberta?

Cities in Alberta including Calgary, Edmonton, Red Deer and Medicine Hat need your local Zakat to help them flourish.

Between January 2022 to March 2024, over $519,000 in Zakat was distributed in Alberta, supporting +2,800 people.

But the need continues to grow.
Islam uniquely emphasizes the preservation of our community's dignity through its pillar of Zakat.
It fosters empowerment, builds community solidarity and when given locally, it allows us to be more effective for the Ummah globally.Zakat is not about charity; it is about the obligation we have to Allah and the responsibility we have towards our Canadian Muslim brothers and sisters.
The impact? A stronger, more dignified Canadian Muslim community with the ability to pay it forward and be of service to the global Ummah.
