Umraty waqfy

Umraty Waqfy is an innovative initiative by Awqaf NZ, designed to seamlessly integrate the spiritual journey of Umrah with the enduring tradition of Waqf. This unique program allows Muslims to contribute to lasting socioeconomic development while fulfilling their religious obligations.

By performing Umrah through Umraty Waqfy, part of the proceeds—after covering operational costs—will be allocated as a Permanent Cash Waqf under the name of the participant. Upon completing the Umrah journey, individuals will receive a personalized Permanent Cash Waqf Certificate. Each year, on the participant’s birthdate, they will receive updates on their Waqf fund and its impact.

Cash Waqf is a charitable endowment where money is utilized for two key purposes:

Qard Hasan (Interest-Free Loan): Supporting projects with significant economic or social benefits, such as Qurbani livestock farms.

Investment for Community Needs: Revenue generated is used to fund essential projects like housing for orphans and the elderly.

The permissibility of Cash Waqf is affirmed by the International Islamic Fiqh Academy (IIFA) Resolution No. 140 (6/15), which states:

Cash Waqf fulfills the Shariah objective of Waqf by retaining the principal while offering benefits. Money can serve as the principal for extending goodly loans, investments, or collective Waqf initiatives.

When you perform Umrah with Umraty Waqfy, a portion of the cost (after operational expenses) is placed in a Permanent Cash Waqf under your name. You receive a Cash Waqf certificate, symbolizing your contribution to community development projects that benefit future generations.

Connect Your Rituals to the Sunnah of Waqf: Enhance your spiritual journey by linking Umrah to ongoing charitable benefits.

Raise Awareness: Introduce Cash Waqf to Muslim communities in the Western world.

Support High-Impact Projects: Use Cash Waqf to provide Qard Hasan to Awqaf organizations, enabling impactful socioeconomic initiatives.

Extend Sadaqah Jariyah: Transform your Umrah into a lasting source of continuous charity.

Empower Communities: Contribute to Awqaf NZ’s vision of turning rituals into sustainable Waqf revenues.
