Frequently asked questions

What is the situation?

Many Muslims accumulate interest (riba) on their wealth, which is considered exploitative and forbidden by Islamic law. This creates a dilemma for those wishing to keep their finances free of interest-based earnings.

What is Zamzami doing?

Zamzami provides an Interest Fund as a means for donors to ethically redirect their interest income. Instead of letting riba go to waste, donors can contribute this money to support humanitarian projects. This fund transforms what would otherwise be considered impure income into a source of benefit for those in need, aligning financial practices with religious values.
