Help Us Raise
$50,000
This Ramadan
This year, we are raising funds to provide relief to widows and families left behind when a Muslim migrant worker working in Singapore passes away, and to Muslim migrant workers with medical or other emergency needs.
Contribute Your Zakat & Donations
Your support this Ramadan makes a difference
We are still accepting zakat and donations above our goal in order to help as many migrant workers and their families as possible. The more we raise, the more we can help. Please keep contributing! May Allah reward you.
Kami masih menerima sumbangan zakat dan derma, walaupun sudah mencapai sasaran, demi membantu seramai mungkin pekerja asing berserta keluarga mereka. Lebih banyak wang yang terkumpul bermakna lebih ramai orang boleh dibantu. Kami memohon sumbangan berterusan anda. Semoga Allah membalas kebaikan anda.

Campaign Information
The 8th year of #SGMuslims 4MigrantWorkers!
This year, we aim to raise at least $50,000 inshaAllah:
Replenish MMA's
Fund for Bereaved Families
First established with #SGMuslims4MigrantWorkers donations in 2023; and
Replenish MMA’s Standing Solidarity Fund
To provide financial relief to Muslim migrant workers and their families with urgent medical or other emergency needs.
All funds raised will go directly to MMA, to disburse through the Standing Solidarity Fund and the Fund for Bereaved Families as necessary, based on the needs of Muslim workers who approach them for help.
Zakat Eligibility and Endorsements
Muslim migrant workers and their families fall within not only one but several categories of beneficiaries (asnaf) eligible to receive zakat.
They are among those:
• poor (al-fuqarâ) or needy (al-masâkîn) (depending on their individual situation)
• trapped in debt (al-gharimin)
• Migrant workers are also wayfarers in a foreign land (ibnussabil)
These migrant workers are like our guests who spend their time in our homeland not to visit but to work and help us build this blessed nation. We should extend our compassion and generosity to them when they are in need."
Please consider giving your zakat to our Muslim migrant workers and read through the campaign to understand more about their plight.”
"The Compassionate One has mercy on those who are merciful. If you show mercy to those who are on the earth, He Who is in the heaven will show mercy to you." - Abu Dawud (Sahih)”
We can show this ihsan by contributing our zakat to the migrant workers who have helped us build our homes and country. Zakat has the transformational potential for justice in society.
May Allah and His Rasul grant ease and patience to all migrant workers and their families in their daily affairs."
"The ones who are merciful, the Most Merciful will have mercy with them. Have mercy with those on the earth, He who is in (the) heaven will have mercy with you", says our Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him.
This Ramadan, let's support these Muslim migrant workers."
Kelayakan dan Pengesahan Zakat
Pekerja asing Muslim dan keluarga mereka digolongkan kepada bukan hanya satu tetapi beberapa asnaf yang layak menerima zakat.
Mereka adalah antara:
• fakir (al-fuqarâ) atau miskin (al-masâkîn) (bergantung kepada situasi individu itu sendiri)
• dibelenggu hutang (al-gharimin)
• Pekerja asing Muslim juga musafir di negara asing (ibnussabil)
Pekerja-pekerja asing ini yang bergelar Ibnu Sabil ialah seperti tetamu kita, yang mengahabiskan masa mereka di tanah air kita untuk bekerja dan memakmurkan negara kita.
Kita patut menzahirkan rasa belas ihsan dan kemurahan hati kepada mereka pada masa-masa memerlukan."
Justeru berilah zakat anda kepada pekerja Muslim asing ini dan bacalah maklumat kempen untuk memahami keadaan yang mereka lalui.”
Ini dijelaskan melalui hadis sahih diriwayatkan daripada Abu Dawud: ‘Orang yang berbuat rahmah akan dirahmati oleh Allah Yang Maha Pengasih. Maka rahmatilah mereka yang ada di bumi, nescaya Allah yang di langit akan merahmati kamu.’."
Bersandarkan sunnahnya, kita harus menunjukkan rasa belas ihsan terhadap semua. Kita boleh menonjolkan keihsanan dengan memberikan wang zakat kepada pekerja asing yang sudah bersusah-payah membina rumah dan negara ini. Wang zakat memiliki keupayaan menegakkan keadilan dalam masyarakat."
Nabi Muhammad (saw) pernah bersabda: 'Mereka yang menunjukkan belas ihsan akan ditunjukkan belas ihsan oleh Yang Maha Belas Ihsan.
Tunjukkanlah sifat belas ihsan kepada mereka di dunia. Dia di syurga akan menunjukkan belas kasihan-Nya kepadamu'."
Funds Raised
More than half a million dollars raised for destitute migrant workers in Singapore.
