FAQ’S
Here are our answers to frequently asked questions.
Yes, as a registered Canadian charity, NZF will provide an official donation receipt. All donations made online will receive their tax receipts instantly via email. For all other forms of donations, tax receipts will be sent at the end of the year (usually in the month of February).
Yes, all donations to National Zakat Foundation (NZF) Canada are 100% tax deductible. NZF is a registered Canadian charity with the CRA, so you’ll get an official tax receipt via email. You can use this receipt to claim a tax credit when filing your income taxes. This includes Zakat, Sadaqah, and other charitable donations. Receipts are sent by email after your donation or at year-end.
NZF provides assistance for a short period of time (2-4 months generally). However, our team of caseworkers are equipped with the knowledge of government benefits and community resources, which are key in providing a more holistic service, with an aim toward self-sustainability.
Yes, you can donate in currencies other than Canadian dollars (CAD) through the National Zakat Foundation (NZF) Canada’s online donation platform. Your donation will automatically be converted to CAD at the current exchange rate. You’ll still receive a tax receipt in CAD if you live in Canada. This allows international donors to support local Canadian causes with ease. NZF’s secure payment gateway accepts most major international credit cards. Currency conversion fees may apply depending on your card provider. Always check your confirmation email to verify the final CAD amount and receipt.

Qur’an and Hadith
“…So recite what is easy from it and establish prayer and give zakat and loan Allah a good loan. And whatever good you put forward for yourselves- you will find it with Allah. It is better and greater in reward. And seek forgiveness of Allah. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.”
Surah Muzammil: 20
