Our Neighbors Need Our Help
Dear Masjid,
May peace, mercy and blessings of God be upon you.
Offering Zakah is a religious obligation of all Muslims, and is the third of the five pillars of Islam (right after prayer). It is a charitable practice that mandates Muslims who meet the minimum requirements must contribute a fixed portion of their wealth, 2.5% of savings held one year, to help those that need.
There are many Muslims in our community who receive assistance through Masjid As-Siddiqs Zakah Program. The Masjid also supports organizations in the USA and abroad with Zakah aid to help our Ummah as a whole. In the last year, our Zakah program has paid out over $110,000 with the vast majority of our distribution going to aid our local community.
Please donate a portion of your Zakah to help our neighbors who could really use your support.
We pray that Allah ( ) accepts our fasting and all good deeds from this Ramadan and grants us Jannah.
Thank you.
Together, with Allah's help, we can ensure that our brothers and sisters facing hardship feel the warmth of our community's support.
