Islamic Charity Organizations

Islamic charity organizations, known as zakat foundations or non-profits, focus on aiding the needy, supporting community development, and promoting social welfare in line with Islamic principles. Zakat, one of the Five Pillars of Islam, mandates that Muslims donate a portion of their wealth to those in need. These organizations facilitate the collection and distribution of charitable funds, often providing food, education, healthcare, and emergency assistance to vulnerable populations. They aim to enhance social justice and reduce poverty while fostering a sense of community responsibility and generosity among Muslims worldwide.
