Zakat is one of the five pillars of Islam, and also an act of worship. It means ‘purification’. By giving a small portion of one’s assets to those in vulnerable situations, a Muslim purifies one’s wealth and makes the wealth gain pleasure for Allah.

The Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad SAW was to distribute zakat in the local community. Unlike other non-profits, ICNA Relief USA uses your Zakat to help the vulnerable communities here within the United States!
