About Bangladesh

Bangladesh hosts nearly one million Rohingya refugees in Cox's Bazar — one of the largest refugee settlements in the world — alongside its own vulnerable populations affected by seasonal flooding, cyclones, and persistent poverty. The Rohingya, fleeing persecution in Myanmar, live in overcrowded camps with limited access to healthcare, education, and clean water. Monsoon rains regularly trigger landslides and flooding within the camps, destroying shelters and contaminating water supplies. Beyond the refugee crisis, rural Bangladeshi communities face chronic poverty, with many families surviving on less than £1 per day. Seasonal flooding affects millions annually, destroying crops, homes, and livelihoods. The garment industry workforce, predominantly women, faces exploitation and inadequate wages. Our partner organisations operate across Cox's Bazar refugee camps and rural Bangladeshi communities, delivering food packs, building water wells and homes, sponsoring orphans, and distributing Qurans to madrasahs in underserved areas.

Delivery Method: Distribution through established partner organizations in Cox's Bazar refugee camps and rural Bangladeshi communities.

Why This Matters

Zakat is one of the Five Pillars of Islam and is obligatory for every Muslim whose wealth exceeds the Nisab threshold. Our Zakat Distribution project ensures your Zakat reaches verified eligible recipients through direct cash distribution.

We work with local scholars and community leaders to carefully identify individuals who fall into the Quranic categories of Zakat eligibility. Cash is distributed directly — not through intermediaries — ensuring 100% reaches the intended recipients.

How We Distribute Zakat

  1. Verification — Local scholars identify eligible recipients
  2. Documentation — Each recipient is registered and verified
  3. Distribution — Cash delivered Hand2Hand with photo proof
  4. Reporting — Donors receive confirmation of distribution

Who Receives Zakat?

The Quran specifies eight categories: the poor, the needy, Zakat administrators, those whose hearts are to be reconciled, slaves, debtors, in the cause of Allah, and wayfarers.

“

The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Islam is built upon five pillars... paying Zakat..." (Bukhari and Muslim)

“

As a Rohingya refugee, I have lost everything. Your charity reminds me that the Ummah has not forgotten us.
