The pace-setting global Islamic society with over 360 locations worldwide, Nasrul-Lahi-L-Fatih Society (NASFAT), continues to touch lives beyond borders and across faith lines.
Through its humanitarian arm, the NASFAT Agency for Zakat and Sadaqah (NAZAS), the organisation remains committed to easing hardship, uplifting communities, and spreading compassion without discrimination.
With cumulative collections now exceeding N200 million as of July this year, NAZAS stands as a shining testament to purposeful charity and service to humanity.
At the 2025 Zakat Disbursement Ceremony, where over N170 million was newly disbursed, the President of NASFAT, Alhaji Ayodeji AbdulWahid AbdulRauf, represented by the National Women Affairs Secretary, Alhaja Ganiyat Omowunmi Babalola, reiterated that NASFAT is “helping humanity and uplifting spirituality.”
She emphasized that the movement’s charitable efforts extend to all Nigerians, regardless of faith, reflecting NASFAT’s unwavering belief in inclusive compassion.
In his official message, the General Manager of NAZAS, Alhaji Mufutau Omosola Adelotan, highlighted the agency’s remarkable trajectory. He noted that NAZAS has consistently maintained over N100 million annual mobilization for the past four years, a milestone demonstrating trust, transparency, and dedication.
He further announced that since its inception in 2014, NAZAS has successfully raised over N1 billion, marking a historic achievement in faith-driven philanthropy in Nigeria.
Representing the Chief Missioner of NASFAT, Imam Maroofdeen AbdulAzeez Onike, was Imam Tesleem, who delivered the closing prayers and offered a deeply reflective admonition on Zakat and Sadaqah.
He reminded the congregation that giving purifies wealth, nurtures unity, and strengthens the spiritual fabric of society.
His message encouraged Nigerians to give generously and consistently as an act of devotion and a pathway to social justice.
Through transformative initiatives such as the Train-to-Fund Scheme, NAZAS continues to empower Nigerians across religious and social backgrounds—providing skills training, capital support, relief aid, and hope for sustainable livelihoods.
Its projects embody NASFAT’s creed that charity must restore dignity, not dependency.
Despite economic challenges, NAZAS’s resilience and integrity continue to inspire confidence nationwide. Its bold target of N2 billion by 2026 reflects not merely financial ambition but a commitment to expand its life-changing impact.
As NASFAT and NAZAS push forward, they echo a timeless truth: true charity transcends faith—it is the universal heartbeat of humanity, lifting communities, renewing hope, and lighting paths across generations.
