Zakat. An Act of Faith.
Allah (SWT) has established Zakat as a financial Ibadah (act of worship). Fulfilling your Zakat obligation with diligence brings dignity to the Muslim Ummah and to your Muslim neighbours.
Cost of Living
Pushing The Vulnerable to a Breaking Point
As the cost of living skyrockets, our brothers and sisters are being forced to choose between paying rent and feeding their families.
• In 2021, 5.8 million people across Canada were living with insecure or inadequate access to food1
• 7 million Canadians reported going hungry at least once between March 2020 and 20222
• 23% of Canadians reported eating less than they needed to because they did not have enough money for groceries3

The urgency cannot be overstated.
Your act of faith can help keep the vulnerable in our community afloat amidst the rising expenses. Over the past 10 years, your support has made a tangible difference:
- We’ve helped 34,500 people across Canada
- Distributed over $4.2 million towards food, housing, debt relief and other community programs last year
Your Zakat enables our brothers and sisters to live with dignity.
