Zakat

A pillar of Islam
Give your Zakat where it is needed most.
Every year, Allah places a portion of qualifying wealth aside for those who have a right to receive it. Zakat is not simply a favour we do for others. It is an obligation, an act of worship, and a means of purifying our wealth.
Behind every Zakat payment may be a family trying to remain in their home, a parent struggling to provide food, a newcomer rebuilding stability, or someone facing an unexpected loss of income. Your Zakat can help carry that burden with dignity.
Through IAOS Regina, donors can calculate an estimated amount, select a designated Zakat fund, and complete payment securely through the existing PayPal checkout.
“Establish prayer and give Zakat, and whatever good you put forward for yourselves, you will find it with Allah.”Qur’an 2:110
