Why Zakat Al Maal?
It is a mandatory form of charity that aims to reduce inequality by transforming individual wealth into a lever for social justice.
How do you calculate it?
It corresponds to 2.5% of the annual wealth exceeding the minimum threshold (nisab)above which it becomes mandatory. If the amount of your wealth (bank accounts, savings accounts, gold, property, etc.)exceeds this threshold during a full lunar year, you must pay 2.5% of this amount.
Who is it distributed to?
Collected in this dedicated fund, your Zakat Al Maal is distributed throughout the year to eligible individuals(poor families, orphans, people in debt, etc.) according to the needs we encounter in the field and in accordance with the rules of allocation, as part of our various ongoing projects and campaigns.
Zakat Al Afitr will be distributed on the eve of Eid, and on the morning of Eid before prayer.
Several sponsorship formulas are available to meet the different assistance needs of families encountered in the field

Questions about sponsorship?
All minors, girls or boys without distinction, whose father or both parents have died, and who have been taken in by their surviving family or relatives.
Every month, our Sponsorship team and photographers meet with all the orphans and their family guardians to present them with the sponsors' donations and produce the photos and videos included in the sponsorship packages above, sent by e-mail to the sponsors.
By filling in the donor form for the formula of your choice directly on the page above. Once you have filled in your personal details and validated the form on our site, you will automatically receive an e-mail confirming that your sponsorship has been set up (remember to check your spam and junk mail folders).
The donor is free to choose the collection date when registering his request.
The first direct debit will therefore be presented to your bank on the date you choose, and subsequent months on the same date.
Nota Bene: allow 3/4 days for the debit to appear on your statement (especially on weekends and public holidays).
Your sponsor file is sent to you by email 2 weeks after the first direct debit. This allows us to make sure that your bank has not rejected our direct debit, and that we can launch the creation of your sponsorship file in the field.
Our team in the field primarily targets the families of orphans in extremely vulnerable situations, with no income, who do not have the means to provide for the orphan's primary needs, in accordance with the directives of the local civil authorities, and in consultation with the other associations present in the region.
By default, there is no time limit, to enable us to make a full commitment to the orphan, and guarantee his or her stability for as long as possible. Sponsorship is a moral commitment made to a family and a godchild who will rely on his or her sponsor, as well as creating an emotional bond. Of course, you can stop before the scheduled date if your situation so requires. Just send an e-mail to info@smileyounited.org.
You can send us your new RIB by e-mail to info@smileyounited.org, or by post, and we will take it into account for the next month's debit.
You can stop your sponsorship by sending a written request to info@smileyounited.org (or by post), giving your contact details, your file number and the month from which you wish to stop your direct debits.
You can upgrade your sponsorship package at any time by sending a written request to info@smileyounited.org (or by post), giving your contact details, your file number and the month from which you wish to upgrade your package.
