Your Zakat is a trust from Allah ﷻ and at Waterfall Charity, we ensure it reaches those who are most entitled to receive it.

By donating to our General Zakat Fund, you allow us to distribute your Zakat to the most urgent and eligible cases across our ongoing initiatives, where need is greatest and impact is immediate.

Where Your Zakat Goes

All Zakat donations are strictly distributed in accordance with Islamic principles and are directed exclusively to eligible recipients among the poor and needy (fuqara and masakeen). Your contribution supports:

• Orphans and vulnerable children – education, uniforms, food, and care

• Poor families – essential food support and basic living needs

• Education for the destitute – including Islamic and foundational schooling

• Zakat-eligible community upliftment – urgent relief and sustainability support

Zakat funds are never mixed with Sadaqah or administrative costs and are distributed with full accountability.

Why General Zakat?

While some donors prefer to allocate their Zakat to a specific cause, real needs on the ground often change rapidly. The General Zakat Fund enables us to:

• Respond immediately to emergency cases

• Support unfunded or overlooked beneficiaries

• Ensure timely distribution rather than delaying aid

This flexibility allows your Zakat to create the maximum possible impact, wherever the need is most pressing.

The Prophet ﷺ said:
