We're halfway through 2025 and working on @NZF_org_uk’s 2024 Annual Report, a chance to reflect on the impact of local giving. Every £1 spent to help someone keep their home can save the public purse £73. Local #Zakat works. 📘 .Image: Mahboob Hussain

One year ago, I joined a panel on social mobility in #Birmingham. Since then, @NZF_org_uk has launched two #Zakat hubs with @GreenLaneMasjid & @bahutrustuk. If we want long-term mobility, we can’t ignore immediate need. Learn more:
What’s Next for Social Mobility?. It was great to catch up with @ZaraM01 and @IanEPwC at the MCBX Leadership Conference in #Birmingham today. 1/

I recently had the pleasure of visiting @mosqueedeparis. Stunning architecture and deep history! Opened in 1926 to honour North African Muslims who fought for France in WWI. A 20-min walk from Notre-Dame, and well worth the visit.🕌.

A few thoughts about what it means to have a training in fiqh, and how to nurture and grow this 'ability' in jurisprudence, and to what end. This was at a graduation ceremony for students of the PGCH - post-graduate certificate in Hanafism, @irshadcentre.

It’s been one month since Eid. Thank you to everyone who chose to give their Zakat locally with @NZF_org_uk this year. The video below shows what that support can lead to: a former recipient, now a Zakat payer. 1/

My highlights: two 🇿🇦 leaders—Ebrahim Rasool & Dr Naledi Pandor. Still thinking about @SANZAFSA 36-month Zakat chef training in Durban from last year. Powerful stuff.

Two weeks on from Eid, I’m sharing this #khutbah as many of us reflect on what comes next. Eid is a kind of graduation—a celebration of effort, and a reminder that our grades with Allah aren’t fixed. 🎥 Watch: 1/ . #JummahMubarak.
