Zakat, or almsgiving, is one of the five pillars of Islam, along with prayer, fasting, pilgrimage (Hajj), and belief in Allah (SWT) and His Messenger, Prophet Muhammad (SAW). For every sane, adult Muslim who owns wealth over a certain amount – known as the nisab – they must pay 2.5% of that wealth as Zakat Donation.

At SAMR Trust, we take pride in our 100% Zakat Policy. It means that every single penny of your Zakat donation will go directly to those who need it most 100% of the time – giving you 100% of the reward. Our main aim is to guarantee that every pound of zakat paid by UK Muslims is paid appropriately – in line with Sunnah and the Holy Qur’an.

Your Zakat can do so much. You can give someone the gift of sight with a cataract surgery, provide a family with clean and safe drinking water, give nutritious food to a family, care for orphans, or give children access to education. Your Zakat literally saves lives.
