Zakat is one of the pillars of Islam, which is the practice of giving a mandatory portion of one's total wealth to the needy. This is a critical part of Islam and it is imperative that Muslims understand the importance of giving Zakat.

Our Rescue a Child project is a lifeline for many innocent children

he UN estimates that there are 150 million children living on the street. This is perhaps a conservative estimate, as reporting and recording is very difficult, and the real figure is thought to be much higher. They are living in fear, without protection, food or hope for their futures. They are at huge risk of exploitation, abuse, forced prostitution, trafficking, forced labour and slavery.

As one of the major charities for street children, we support street children in Bangladesh and Pakistan.

In Bangladesh, over 50% of the population live below the poverty line, which can lead to an increase in child abandonment and suffering. It is estimated that in the capital city, Dhaka, more than 500,000 street children are living on the street. There are accounts of children getting caught up in gang disputes and violence, carrying weapons and taking part in illegal activities. https://muslimcharity.org.uk/charities-for-streetchildren/
