Notes

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) 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) 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) If sustenance debts are fully repaid in the financial year, this amount is excluded from the profits.
5) Possessions which are not subject to khums are:
1. a. Possessions owned through inheritance:
2. i. Cash

URGENT Afghanistan Appeal

Supporting orphaned children in one of the world’s most overlooked crises

This Muharram,
A child in Afghanistan Needs You

Afghanistan is living through one of the gravest humanitarian crises of our generation.

For orphaned children, the weight of that falls heaviest. Al-Ayn is on the ground, in regions others can’t reach – providing the consistent care every child deserves.

This Muharram, help us reach even more children in urgent need.

Afghanistan has been classified at IPC Phase 4 – Emergency levels of acute hunger.

OVER 23M PEOPLE,
More than HALF of the Country, do not know where their next meal will come from

Orphaned children are among the most at risk. Your support is needed this Muharram.

Orphaned Children Bear the Heaviest Cost

When a child loses their parents, they lose everything at once – income, protection, and the stability that every childhood depends on. In a country where the humanitarian crisis is intensifying, orphaned children are among those carrying the heaviest burden.

orphaned children in Afghanistan are receiving Al-Ayn’s support in some of the country’s most underserved and hard-to-reach regions. We provide long-term care that doesn’t just help a child through a difficult season, but walks alongside them year after year.

Our work is carried out under the guidance and authorisation of His Eminence Al-Sayyid Ali Al-Sistani – a mark of the religious and ethical standards that underpin everything we do. Rigorous processes and governance structures ensure every donation is carefully accounted for and every child is reached. When you give through Al-Ayn, your generosity is carried as a sacred trust.

Al-Ayn on the Ground:

Where others cannot go, we already are

Al-Ayn’s approach to orphaned child care is built on something stronger than emergency response – it’s built on consistency.

Over the past two decades, we developed and refined a long-term orphaned child sponsorship programme across Iraq that has transformed the lives of over 108,000 orphaned children. That same proven model is now being brought to Afghanistan, where the need is urgent and our teams are already embedded in communities on the ground.

We work in some of Afghanistan’s most remote and underserved regions, ensuring that every sponsored child receives uninterrupted, dignified care every month of the year.

We don’t wait for crises to pass – we operate through them, reaching children in the places no one else can.
