What to review before you start
Your records describe gifts received by your organization, not a donor's complete giving or personal religious obligations. Missing records and designation errors need review. Use the campaign context to support a thoughtful conversation, not to decide what a person owes.
- Confirm how each donation source records Zakat and other designations.
- Review recent gifts and missing data before selecting recipients.
- Have the campaign owner approve exceptions and follow-up wording.
Common questions
Does recorded Zakat giving determine a donor's obligation?
No. A charity's records are incomplete information about a person's circumstances. The campaign workflow supports outreach decisions, not religious rulings.
Why review the designation before sending?
A general gift, Sadaqah contribution, and Zakat-designated gift can call for different follow-ups. Unclear source labels should be resolved before relying on them.
