<h3 style="margin-left:0px;">Fidya  &nbsp;</h3>Fidya is to be paid in circumstances when a person is unable to fast due to helplessness and cannot make up the fast outside of Ramadan.  A donation of £5 per missed fast (per day) is required for each individual. This donation aims to feed the hungry two meals a day.  &nbsp;Some examples of where Fidya would be due include:&nbsp;<ul><li style="margin-left:0px;">The permanently ill.&nbsp;</li><li style="margin-left:0px;">Elderly people who are unable to fast.&nbsp;</li><li style="margin-left:0px;">Those in need of regular medication during fasting hours, in the instance where their wellbeing may be affected.&nbsp;</li></ul><h3 style="margin-left:0px;">Kaffarah  &nbsp;</h3>Kaffarah is due in circumstances where a fast is invalid or intentionally broken.  &nbsp;Situations that necessitate Kaffarah&nbsp;There are three situations in which Kaffarah, in relation to fasting, is due.1. Sexual relations  &nbsp;Sexual relations break the fast and necessitates tawbah. A person who breaks their fast in this way will need to make up the broken fast of that day and give Kaffarah. Normally, this necessitates the freeing of 1 slave; if this is not possible, a person must fast 60 consecutive days without any break, per broken fast; and if this is not possible, and only if the above methods of kaffarah are deemed not possible, then a person must pay for the feeding of 60 poor people per missed or broken fast, at the rate of £5 per person (£5 x 60), equating to £300 per broken fast.  &nbsp;2. Breaking the fast intentionally without due reason &nbsp; &nbsp; Breaking the fast intentionally without due reason (other than sexual relations i.e. eating) necessitates tawbah, and a person must make up the broken fast of that day. Scholars may differ in this regard, however, the majority of the scholars state that should a person break their fast in this manner, they would need to increase in good deeds, seek forgiveness and make up the broken fast, and this is sufficient.  &nbsp;Some scholars differ and state that in addition to the above, a person will need to give the kaffarah, much in the same way as that of sexual relations. For a person following this opinion, this normally would require a person to free 1 slave; if this is not possible, then a person must fast 60 consecutive days without any break, per broken fast; if this is not possible, and only if the aforementioned methods of kaffarah are deemed not possible, then a person must pay for the feeding of 60 poor people per each missed or broken fast, at the rate of £5 per person (£5 x 60), equating to £300 per broken fast.  &nbsp;3. Delayed fast over 1 year  &nbsp;If a person has some missed fasts from a past Ramadan, (for instance, due to travelling, women who are unable fast due to menstruation or pregnancy etc) and without a valid reason (i.e. long-term sickness, ill health, regular medication that prevents fasting etc) have not completed their missed fasts before the next Ramadan, then they are still required to make up these fasts after the Ramadan. In addition to making up these fasts, a person must feed 1 poor person the equivalent of 1 muud (approximately 750g of food) per fast, at the rate of £5 per fast missed. For example, if a person has missed 6 fasts, they are required to complete those fasts and pay £30 kaffarah (£5 x 6 fasts).&nbsp;&nbsp;

Fidya & Kaffarah is to be paid when a person is unable to fast or invalidated or intentionally broke their fast.

1. You will fulfill your duty.As Muslims, it is our duty to stand against oppression. The Prophet (SAW) said, “Whoever among you sees an evil action, let him change it with his hand; if he cannot, then with his tongue; and if he cannot, then with his heart, and that is the weakest of faith.” (Sahih Bukhari.)2. It will grant you ease in this world and the hereafter.&nbsp;&nbsp;If you empower those facing hardships, Allah will reward you by granting you ease in all your affairs. Abu Hurairah (RA) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: “Whoever relieves a Muslim of a burden from the burdens of the world, Allah will relieve him of a burden from the burdens on the Day of Judgement. And whoever helps ease a difficulty in the world, Allah will grant him ease from difficulties in the world and the Hereafter. (Jami` at-Tirmidhi 1930, Book 27, Hadith 36)3. It will protect you from hellfire.&nbsp;Spending in the way of Allah, no matter what the amount will help protect you from hellfire. Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said, “Protect yourself from hell-fire even by giving a piece of date as charity.” (Al-Bukhari and Muslim)

In surah Baqarah Allah swt says:&nbsp;&nbsp;يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ ٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ وَذَرُوا۟ مَا بَقِىَ مِنَ ٱلرِّبَوٰٓا۟ إِن كُنتُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ &nbsp;٢٧٨&nbsp; فَإِن لَّمْ تَفْعَلُوا۟ فَأْذَنُوا۟ بِحَرْبٍۢ مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِۦ ۖ وَإِن تُبْتُمْ فَلَكُمْ رُءُوسُأَمْوَٰلِكُمْ لَا تَظْلِمُونَ وَلَا تُظْلَمُونَ ٢٧٩ &nbsp;O believers! Fear Allah, and give up outstanding interest if you are ˹true˺ believers. (278) If you do not, then beware of a war with Allah and His Messenger! But if you repent, you may retain your principal—neither inflicting nor suffering harm. (279)&nbsp;In Islam, ridding yourself of interest money by giving it to charity is a responsible and ethical way to rid oneself of riba’s negative effects. It serves as a step toward financial and spiritual purity, helping Muslims align their wealth with the principles of Islamic finance. Through this act, believers contribute to the well-being of society while upholding the values of justice and compassion prescribed in the Qur'an and Sunnah.&nbsp;What can the money be used on?&nbsp;Money from riba can be used for things such as roads, bathrooms or other aspects of projects which are similar.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Armed violence, climate shocks, epidemics and socio-political instability have contributed to widespread insecurity and large-scale population displacement across Mali. A vast land-locked country in the heart of the Sahel region, it is estimated about 1.5 million people have fled their homes since 2012. Poverty is on the rise, affecting 78.1 percent of people, and stunting affects 30.4% of children under 5, affecting some 367,000 severely acutely malnourished children. This year, more than 1.24 million Malians will require urgent food assistance.

For many, winter is a time to bundle up, turn up the heat, and enjoy the warmth of home-cooked meals with loved ones. It’s a season of family, holidays, and if we’re lucky, a little snow for the kids to enjoy.But for far too many, winter is not just cold—it's a threat to survival. And it’s not the freezing temperatures that cause this suffering.It's oppression.Winter becomes a cruel reminder that some are struggling because of who they are and where they were born. It’s not the weather that kills; it’s the systemic inequality, the barriers of discrimination, and the injustice that denies people access to basic needs. The cold only makes their situation more unbearable.While we work to create lasting change, we won’t leave those suffering to face the winter alone. Whether it’s food, fuel, or blankets to keep warm, we’ll continue to stand by their side, helping them survive the brutal nights.&nbsp;You can support our brothers and sisters by donating a winter pack today:&nbsp;Winter Food pack £50&nbsp;Winter Essentials pack £100winter clothes &amp; blankets&nbsp;Winter Heating pack £60Heater, fuel/gas&nbsp;* Items may vary across countries&nbsp;But let’s be clear—it’s not winter that’s the enemy.
