Question:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Is there a difference between soliciting donations and begging? I ask because I know begging is prohibited unless there is a dire need and as a last resort.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For example, would it be wrong for an organisation to ask for voluntary contributions of money to support itself or a beneficial cause, like helping those worthy of charity, or would that be considered begging? Also, let’s say I’m a worthy recipient of zakat or charity, like someone who is totally devoted to studying Islam and therefore not working (included in Fi Sabilillah by some scholars), would it be considered begging for me to ask people for assistance? If there is a difference can you explain how please Thanks!<\/span><\/p>\n

Answer:<\/u><\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It is permissible for an organisation or institution which looks after the poor and needy to solicit donations like Zaka\u0304t for the people in their care.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There is a very clear distinction between soliciting donations to care for the poor and needy and begging. Begging others for one’s own personal needs is not advisable in Islam. However, seeking funds to run an organisation which caters for the poor and needy and looks after their interest and needs is permissible. This is proven by many narrations of the Prophet ( peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) where he solicited donations on different occasions (<\/span>Tabook <\/span><\/i>expedition, etc).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
