Zakat Foundation of India

HAJ FUND of INDIA TM *

Each year, hundreds of thousands of Indian Muslims undertake the pious journey for the annual Haj pilgrimage (link).

However, a very large number of Indians are denied the opportunity to perform the noble journey because of the Saudi Arabian restrictions on the maximum number of Haj pilgrims from India.

In either case, the individual aspiring for Haj saves money for several years at home or in banks.

Keeping this noble saving in the bank does not make us very happy because of Islamic dislike for Riba, usury or interest. But, at any other place its safety is not fully guaranteed.

Therefore, with a view to serve the community and for the convenience of the people, on the pattern of well tested system known as 'Tabung Haji' of Malaysia (link), Zakat Foudation of India has launched the ‘HAJ FUND OF INDIA.’

FACILITIES PROVIDED BY HAJ FUND OF INDIA:
The Haj Fund of India will provide the following facilities to the Indian Haj aspirants:

(a) Deposit of individual savings for Haj fully conforming with the principles of Shariat;

(b) Safe keeping of these funds and making these available to the individual concerned when he/she is ready to go for Haj; and

(c) In the meanwhile, utilization of these funds for helping the poor and needy in the community, in accordance with the rules of shariat.
