Zakat Foundation to feed 35, 000 Muslims
A faith-based Non-Governmental Organisation, Zakat and Sadaqat Foundation (ZSF) has spoken of plan to feed no fewer than 35,000 Muslims across the Southwest under its Iftar Saim (meals for breaking fast) project. Its Executive Director/Chief Executive Officer, Imam Abdullahi Shuaib said N16 million has been budgeted for the project.
Imam Shuaib said some of the Iftar Saim programmes include Public lectures/Seminars, distribution of food items, beverages, groundnut oils, sugar and milks among others to individuals, orphanage homes, physically challenged people and prison yards.
He said the objective of the Iftar Saim was to create an enabling environment for indigent Muslims to actively participate in Ramadan Fast and give them a sense of belonging.
Imam Shuaib added that the programme also aimed at providing a window of opportunity for wealthy to earn Allah's blessings by assisting the less-privileged.
This, he said, will make them maximise the rewards of the Holy month. "It is planned to facilitate genuine love and true spirit of brotherhood in Islam among Muslims of all walks of life and to foster unity through the instrumentality of Ramadan fast cum Iftar Saim," he said.
The Iftar Saim programme, the foundation boss said, will extend to Federal Capital Territory, Edo, Delta, Kwara and Niger states.
Imam Shuiab thanked patrons and people who donated to the project, appealing to philanthropists and individuals to assist the needy during and after the month of Ramadan.
