Masakeen Charitable Society — Our work in numbers

Transparency in how we serve the most deserving across Kashmir, with dignity and rehabilitation for lasting independence.

Allah the Exalted commands

Qur'an 63:10 — Spend from what We have provided you before death comes to one of you and he says: “My Lord, if only You would delay me for a brief term so I would give charity and be among the righteous.”

The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said that the poor are not only those who beg; they include those who are needy yet refrain from asking because of self-respect.

Proem

About twenty-five years ago in Soura, a small effort began to help a sick labourer. That seed has grown into a broad philanthropic endeavour serving people across Kashmir.

Stand out factor

All administrative and establishment expenses are paid by the working members themselves. One hundred percent of public donations is transferred directly to beneficiaries' bank accounts.

Mission

We aim to help the most deserving while protecting their privacy and dignity, with a strong focus on rehabilitation toward economic independence.

Performance

Working since the year 2006, having disbursed approximately Rs 10.92 crores to thousands of beneficiaries through 2025 (figures in lakhs).
