Islamic Relief Worldwide is a faith-inspired humanitarian and development agency which is working to support and empower the world's most vulnerable people.
Founded in the United Kingdom in 1984, Islamic Relief has international headquarters in Birmingham and a network of national offices, affiliated partners, registered branches and country offices spread over more than 45 countries.
The charity typically assists more than 10 million people each year through emergency response, and development programmes in areas including education, health and livelihood support. It also advocates on behalf of those in need, focusing particularly in its campaigns on climate change, the rights of women and girls, and supporting refugees and displaced people.
Islamic Relief has been registered with the Charity Commission of England and Wales since 1989 and is an independent, non-political non-governmental organisation (NGO).[Source: "ISLAMIC RELIEF WORLDWIDE – Charity 328158". register-of-charities.charitycommission.gov.uk.] In 2021, Islamic Relief's income was £183 million.[ "ISLAMIC RELIEF WORLDWIDE – Charity 328158". register-of-charities.charitycommission.gov.uk.]
History
Islamic Relief was founded in 1984 by Dr Hany El-Banna and fellow students from the University of Birmingham. From its first donation of 20p, the charity raised £100,000 to help those affected by the famine in Sudan.(Source: "Justine Greening's speech to mark 30 years of Islamic Relief". GOV.UK.)
Since then, Islamic Relief has grown into an international humanitarian organisation with an annual income of tens of millions and a presence in more than 40 countries across Europe, Africa, Asia, the Middle East, and North America
Islamic Relief's work
Vision and mission
Islamic Relief's work is guided by the values and teachings of the Qur'an and Sunnah, the prophetic example. These shape the organisation's five key values: ikhlas (sincerity), ihsan (excellence), rahma (compassion), adl (social justice), and amana (custodianship).
Islamic Relief serves communities in need regardless of race, political affiliation, gender or belief, working to provide lasting routes out of poverty and to empower individuals to transform their lives.
It envisages a caring world where communities are empowered, social obligations are fulfilled, and people respond as one to the suffering of others. It is committed to the principle of Do No Harm,[Source: "You are being redirected..." islamic-relief.org.] striving to ensure aid is appropriate for the communities it serves, and to understand and minimise any potential negative impacts of aid delivery.
Humanitarian programmes
Islamic Relief responds to humanitarian crises around the world, aiming to reduce the impact of conflicts and natural disasters. The charity focuses on rapid response, providing emergency relief and protecting vulnerable people. It also helps communities and governments to prepare for future incidents through disaster risk reduction programmes.
Some of the major emergency interventions launched by Islamic Relief have included providing life-saving aid during the Bosnian War in the 1990s, providing medical assistance during the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, and managing refugee camps in Darfur, Sudan. The charity has also responded to devastating natural disasters including the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami, the Kashmir earthquake in 2005 and a severe drought in the Horn of Africa in 2011.
In 2021, Islamic Relief reported that it had delivered 427 major humanitarian projects that year. The charity's current emergency appeals include supporting 2.5 million people at risk of famine and disease in Yemen,[Source: "2021 in numbers". Islamic Relief 21annual report. Retrieved 2022-10-18.] delivering vital food, shelter and healthcare to communities in Afghanistan, assisting people in Gaza following a deadly escalation in 2021, and emergency aid for Bangladesh following floods that have impacted some four million people.[24]
Islamic Relief also runs annual seasonal programmes, including Ramadan and qurbani food distribution, and a winter programme through which blankets, fuel and other essentials are provided to help people in need survive the colder months. These programmes reach millions of people each year.
Refugees and displaced people
In 2013, Islamic Relief was one of several faith-inspired organisations to work with the UN High Commissioner for Refugees[CM9] on an inter-faith affirmation. The charity also campaigns to help implement the UN's Global Compact on Refugees, an historic agreement that includes specific recognition of the role of faith-based organisations and local faith communities in welcoming those forced to flee their homes.
Fundraising
Islamic Relief raises funds through various channels including online donations, charity shops, and corporate giving. In 2021, the charity reported that it had raised a record £183 million through fundraising.[ "ISLAMIC RELIEF WORLDWIDE – Charity 328158". register-of-charities.charitycommission.gov.uk.]
Islamic Relief is also the founder of Charity Week – a student volunteer-led campaign to raise funds. In 2021, Islamic Relief reported that 394 educational institutions around the world signed up to take part in that year's event, raising a record £1.8 million.[ "Annual Reports". Charity Week. Retrieved 2022-10-18.]
