CHARITY 

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: “Every Muslim has to give in charity.” The people then asked: “(But what) if someone has nothing to give, what should he do?” The Prophet replied: “He should work with his hands and benefit himself and also give in charity (from what he earns).” The people further asked: “If he cannot find even that?” He replied: “He should help the needy who appeal for help.” Then the people asked: “If he cannot do (even) that?” The Prophet said finally: “Then he should perform good deeds and keep away from evil deeds, and that will be regarded as charitable deeds.”– Sahih Al-Bukhari, Volume 2, Hadith 524

Don’t forget to claim your tax credits on donations made  

Cash donations of more than $5 made by individuals to certain qualifying charitable organisations will qualify for a tax credit of 33 1/3% of the amount paid provided there is a valid receipt. Unless the donations are made via the payroll donation method, then the individual will need to file a tax credit claim (form IR 526) with the Inland Revenue (IR) attaching receipts. The tax claim period runs to the tax year, 1 April to 31 March.
