Disability Support – Uplift Lives
Across the Ummah, people with disabilities are often much poorer and more deprived than others in their communities. Despite being the world’s ‘biggest minority,’ they struggle to find work, secure an education, or access proper healthcare.
Even though people with disabilities are among the poorest and most vulnerable, their needs are often overlooked by governments and aid organizations. Their hardships are further exacerbated by the ignorance and stigma surrounding disabilities in their societies.
The Impact of War and Conflict
In countries like Afghanistan, it’s common for once-healthy civilians to be left permanently injured due to war, conflict, or oppression. A significant portion of the population has been scarred by injuries and disabilities caused by unceasing conflict. These people remain amongst the poorest demographics in Afghanistan’s sea of poverty.

Restore their Dignity and Stability
In a unique initiative, Ummah Welfare Trust provides monthly vouchers to injured and disabled Muslims who, due to their challenges, are unable to earn a livelihood. This support helps them lead their daily lives with greater dignity.
By offering this assistance, disabled and injured individuals can afford basic necessities such as food, medical care, and other daily expenses. The support eases their financial burdens, allowing them to live with greater stability without being reliant on others for survival.
People with disabilities are amongst the poorest of the poor. Donate your Zakat, Sadaqah, and Lillah to this vital project—one that empowers those who deserve to be empowered. Donate today.
