Frequently asked questions

What is the situation?

 In many parts of the world, the poorest members of society struggle to meet even their most basic needs—food, shelter, and medical care. This vulnerability is a pressing concern for communities facing widespread poverty.

What is Zamzami doing?

Zamzami channels Zakat funds according to strict Islamic guidelines. As one of the five pillars of Islam, Zakat is obligatory for those who can afford it, and its distribution targets the eight categories defined by the Qur’an—supporting the poor, the needy, orphans, and other vulnerable groups. Zamzami’s transparent and accountable approach ensures that these funds make a real difference in alleviating poverty and fostering community growth.
