ZAKAT AND FITRE DONATION

[Martyr Veteran and Counter-Terrorism Foundation] You can support the education, health, and housing projects we carry out for our esteemed martyrs who risked their lives for our homeland and our heroic veterans with your zakat and fitre donations. The zakat and fitre you entrust to our foundation are delivered directly to the families of martyrs and veterans in need, in full compliance with Islamic jurisprudence and legal regulations.

1. How Are Zakat and Fitre Donations Evaluated?

• Education of Martyr Children: It is transferred to a special fund created for the school, scholarship, book, and stationery expenses of the orphaned and fatherless children of martyrs, who are the guarantee of our future.
• Health and Rehabilitation of Our Veterans: It is used for the health expenses of our veterans who are in the process of treatment and need prosthetics or medical devices.
• Housing and Basic Needs Support: It is delivered as direct cash assistance to meet the vital needs of our veterans and martyrs’ relatives in need, such as rent, fuel, and basic food.

2. Our Jurisprudential and Legal Sensitivities (Fund Separation)

• Separate Account Management: Zakat and fitre donations made to our foundation are collected in the “Zakat and Fitre Special Account,” completely independent of the foundation’s general expenses and other donation pools.
• Direct Delivery: These collected donations are transferred in cash to the bank accounts of our martyrs and veterans’ relatives who are eligible to receive zakat (in accordance with the principles stated in Surah At-Tawbah, verse 60). No expenditures are made from the zakat fund for administrative expenses such as foundation building costs or staff salaries.
