Help at Home

With over three million people living in poverty in Australia, we recognise the increasing challenges at home. Challenges that include the families battling food poverty and increasing homelessness. As well as the many issues faced by refugees and asylum-seekers.

Our local work includes combating challenges faced by women and promoting and facilitating the development of young people. As well as battling crippling poverty (as seen through our partnership with Brothers In Need), and supporting refugee resettlement and integration.

We also support local emergency response initiatives across Australia. This includes our work with Shoalhaven Council to help rebuild the community after the devastating fires from the summer of 2019.

In an increasingly difficult climate, we’re striving to support as many people as possible to improve their lives and ease suffering. For us, it is paramount that we band together as a community sharing core Islamic values to help alleviate suffering to the best of our ability.

“They ask you, (O Muhammad), what they shall spend. Say: That which you spend for good (must go) to parents and near kindred and orphans and the needy and the wayfarer. And whatsoever good you do, lo! Allah is Aware (Al-‘Alim) of it” (2:215).
