In recent weeks, there have been some heavy and unexpected rains in Afghanistan despite the season. The heavy rains have triggered flash floods, which caused the destruction of homes, buildings, and agricultural lands. The aftermath of these natural disaster has left many families homeless, vulnerable, and some children orphans like there wasn’t already so many in the country. All of them need urgent assistance. 

As the floodwaters are gone, the true extent of the damage becomes increasingly obvious. Families have been displaced, crops have been destroyed, and essential services have been disrupted. Many people are dragged out from the rumbles, some children were saved from the mud that was about to swallow them. 

In times of crisis, it is essential for us to come together and extend a helping hand to those in need. As NEED Charity, we try to help the Ummah as much as we can during challenging times. We recognize the urgency of the situation and are committed to providing immediate relief to the flood victims in Afghanistan. Our dedicated team will be on the ground, distributing hot meals, bread, and water to alleviate the suffering of those affected by the floods. 

The provision of these basic necessities is a small yet crucial step towards rebuilding the lives of the affected people. Through our collective efforts, we aspire to bring hope even if it’s little and comfort to those who have lost so much from their hard-earned houses and loved-ones. 

It is one of the prayers that should be performed for Muslims who have opportunities. Your zakat is delivered to poor families who need it the most. It is our first priority to bring your zakat to families by identifying the needy families who are living outside the war zone within the limits specified by our belief and with a sense of responsibility.

IHCRO has a policy called 100% zakat policy. This means your zakat reaches the poor in full , alhamdulillah. Furthermore, all donations that are given as zakat and the sadaqah that are directed to help orphans, poor and sick families are admin fee-free. We give this support in cash form to the hand of the poor. All our Zakat is allocated as monetary assistance to the poor because this is the best way to utilize zakat to put in the hands of the poor and they spend it the way they feel best.

We don’t put zakat in any projects. We are running on the bare minimum, asking Allah to accept our efforts and yours. We deliver zakat to more than 30 countries such as Yemen, Syria, Afghanistan, Palestine, Madagascar, Bangladesh and many more. May Allah accept all our good deeds and yours.

In this Ramadan, inshaAllah we will keep doing what we do, and we will increase our work to reach more families with your support inshaAllah. As the Prophet (s.a.w.) said: “He whose two days are equal, is a loser.” we always strive to help more people than we did yesterday.

Ramadan is the most important month for Muslims. It is the month when we fast and try to understand each other, help each other and show tolerance.

Most people’s tables are full of food during Ramadan but there are millions of people in the world who do not have the same opportunities. While some cannot find food, some cannot even reach clean water. Although this situation is not unique to the month of Ramadan, at least during Ramadan, a Muslim’s “stomach shouldn’t be filled while the neighbor to his side goes hungry”. People should look for ways to help all people around them, starting with their neighbors.

Can you imagine walking miles just for clean water? It is stated that 2 billion people in the world do not have access to clean water. What about food? Today, millions of people are hungry and we cannot even imagine it. We can’t even think of going hungry for a day or even a meal. But there are people who experiences all these and we have to take responsibility in this situation.

IHCRO establishes Ramadan Cuisine all over the world and distributes iftar to the needy every day during the month of Ramadan. Thanks to those iftars, people can have food at least in Ramadan.
