Baitul Maal
Baitul Maal at Rahmah Foundation is a trusted and transparent system for collecting and managing Islamic charity in accordance with Shariah. Every contribution, including Zakat, Sadaqah, Fidya, and Fitrana, is treated as an Amanah (sacred trust) and handled with care and responsibility.
These funds are distributed through verified programs in food, healthcare, education, and welfare support. This ensures that donors fulfill their religious obligations while help reaches deserving individuals and families with dignity, fairness, and compassion.
Our Work
Rahmah Foundation’s Baitul Maal operates with the core values of Amanah (Trust), Adl (Justice), and Rahmah (Mercy).
We receive and distribute donations under distinct Islamic categories, maintaining full separation and accountability between each fund type. This ensures every rupee is used exactly as intended by Shariah — nothing more, nothing less.
The Baitul Maal funds multiple humanitarian programs, including:
- Feeding the poor and supporting widows and orphans
- Providing healthcare assistance and education
- Offering financial aid to verified families in crisis
Each fund type has its own specific rules and eligible beneficiaries, as outlined below.
