Notes
  1. 1) Your khums due date is the first day you started your job or business. If you are retired or not in employment, then you can agree a khums due date with a representative of the marja'a, or calculate separate khums years for each profit that you make, from the date you made that profit.
  2. 2) The khums of commercial commodities and real estate(s) which are intended for trading, should be paid in accordance with their current market value, even if they were bought with profits which a year has elapsed on, unless the price at which they were bought is higher than the current value.
  3. 3) If the calculations show that the amount of khums due is negative as a result of sustenance debts, then the amount of the sustenance debt equivalent to the amount of khums due for the rest of the item is calculated and excluded.
  4. 4) If sustenance debts are fully repaid in the financial year, this amount is excluded from the profits.
  5. 5) Possessions which are not subject to khums are:
    1. a. Possessions owned through inheritance:
    2. i. Cash
    3. ii. Real Estate

Be a lifeline for orphaned children in Afghanistan

In Afghanistan, an unparalleled humanitarian crisis is unfolding, with an estimated 95% of the population facing food insecurity. Orphaned children remain among the most vulnerable – poverty, violence, and displacement have left them in urgent need of vital humanitarian aid and essential services.

Al-Ayn has been working on the ground in Afghanistan to build sustainable, effective, and dignified services for orphaned children. This includes monthly financial aid, food, health care, housing support, and other essential needs.

Support orphaned children in Ghana

Children in Ghana are among the most affected by poverty; they have a 40% higher likelihood of being impoverished than adults, a startling 15% increase since the 1990s.

Orphaned children in Ghana are often among the most vulnerable. They may have lost one or both of their parents, their home, their community, and their sense of security.
