"A Charitable Initiative to Support the Treatment of Cancer Patients Endorsed by the Emirates Fatwa Council"
Amidst the challenges faced by cancer patients and their families, the "Zakat Fund" project from the Emirates Cancer Association emerges as an oasis of hope, striving to provide financial and moral support to these patients. With the affirmation of the legality of donating Zakat funds for this purpose, based on a Fatwa issued by the Emirates Fatwa Council, this initiative opens new horizons for goodness and giving in our society.
Importance of the Project:
Charity and Zakat are fundamental pillars in Islam, calling for solidarity and empathy among community members. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, "Heal your sick with charity," emphasizing the healing effect of giving. Allah Almighty also says in His noble book, "Take from their wealth a charity by which you purify them and cause them increase," (At-Tawbah: 103). From this perspective, the "Zakat Fund" project aims to direct Zakat towards supporting the treatment of cancer patients, thereby alleviating the burden on them and their families.
The Legitimacy of Donating Zakat for Patient Treatment:
Based on a Fatwa from the Emirates Fatwa Council, donating Zakat funds for the treatment of cancer patients has become a legitimate and recommended act, opening a great door for reward and blessing. This step enhances the concept of Zakat as a means of purification and growth, not only for the individual Muslim but for the society as a whole.
A Call for Participation and Donation:
We invite everyone who is able to contribute to the "Zakat Fund" project, supporting cancer patients and affirming the spirit of cooperation and mutual support advocated by our noble religion. Remember the words of Allah Almighty: "And whatever good you spend will be repaid to you, and you will not be wronged" (Al-Baqarah: 272).
Let us all be part of this virtuous initiative, contributing to building a community filled with goodness and blessing.
The "Zakat Fund" Project
presents a golden opportunity for the community to contribute to the treatment of cancer patients, benefiting from the religious Fatwa that blesses this charitable work.
