National Zakat Foundation

The National Zakat Foundation is a ground-breaking initiative which aims to utilise Zakat funds and voluntary donations collected in the United Kingdom for the benefit of local, deserving recipients. This group includes some of the most vulnerable members of the community, including widows, orphans, refugees, the aged as well as the homeless. The work of NZF covers five core areas that together form an end-to-end service for the Muslim community in the UK with respect to Zakat: Awareness, Education, Calculation, Collection and Distribution. NZF works to strengthen and enhance the UK Muslim community's engagement with Zakat and to improve its impact on the most vulnerable members of our community nationwide. Its ultimate aim is to encourage a Zakat-conscious UK Muslim community where every family and individual facing hardship is empowered to lead safe and dignified lives.
