Al Haq Foundation Pakistan: Transforming Lives with Your Zakat

At Al Haq Foundation Pakistan, we are deeply committed to ensuring that your generous donations have the greatest impact in relieving the suffering of the most vulnerable, especially in Pakistan. Thanks to your Zakat contributions, we’ve been able to support critical relief efforts for communities affected by disasters such as the 2022 Pakistan floods, as well as in regions like D.I. Khan, Sindh, KPK, and during the COVID-19 pandemic.

By prioritizing the first category of Zakat—helping the poor and needy—we make sure that your donations directly benefit those who need it most.

We also allocate a small portion of the funds towards administrative costs to ensure that aid is distributed efficiently and transparently.

Your 2.5% can be 100% life-changing for someone in need.

  1. Nisab is the minimum amount of wealth required to make a person liable to pay Zakat. The nisab (or minimum amount) of gold and golden currency is 20 mithqal, this is approximately 85 grams of pure gold. One mithqal is approximately 4.25 grams. The nisab of silver and silver currency is 200 dirhams, which is approximately 595 grams of pure silver. The nisab of other kinds of money and currency is to be scaled to that of gold, 85 grams of pure gold. This means that the nisab of money is the price of 85 grams of 999-type (pure) gold, on the day in which Zakat is paid. (Current Gold Prices

Examples

If the nisab is $2,840 (PKR 497,451) this Ramadan and you have savings of $1,313 (PKR 229,983) and gold worth $1,970 (PKR 345,063) (Total $3,284)(PKR 575,222) , then you have to pay 2.5% of the whole amount as Zakat – which = $82 (PKR 14,363).
