Zakat
An obligation of 2.5 per cent on wealth held above the nisab threshold for a lunar year. We hold it in a restricted fund and spend it only on food, cash support, orphan households, medical care and emergency relief for those who qualify.
Your Zakat. Delivered right.
UNH focuses on two things only: Zakat and Sadaqah. Work out what you owe in two minutes, then give knowing exactly where it goes.
100% Zakat policy
Every pound of Zakat goes to eligible recipients. Running costs come from Sadaqah.
Zakat and Sadaqah only
No sprawling appeals list. Two funds, clearly separated, clearly reported.
Local delivery partners
Aid bought and distributed locally, so more of your gift reaches the family.
Sadaqah
Voluntary giving of any amount, at any time. Sadaqah builds the water wells, funds the emergency stockpile and keeps our teams on the ground. Sadaqah Jariyah keeps giving long after the donation is made.
