How to donate to Gaza, Palestine in Singapore
| Sections: Introduction | Ways to donate |
It has been tough seeing images and videos of the ongoing sufferings and injustices faced by the people in Gaza. Following the ceasefire implemented in late 2025, Gaza continues to face severe shortages of water, food and sanitation. With widespread destruction of homes and basic services, the focus has shifted from emergency relief to sustainable recovery.
Allah s.w.t. says in the Quran,
أَمَّنْ يُجِيْبُ الْمُضْطَرَّ إِذَا دَعَاهُ وَيَكْشِفُ السُّوْءَ
“Is it not He Who responds to the distressed one, when he calls on Him, and Who removes the evil.”
(Surah An-Naml, 27:62)
Read The power of dua in Islam
As Muslims, we should show solidarity towards those who are in dire situations. Amongst others, we can contribute collectively in the form of making dua. We can recite Dua Qunut Nazilah, specifically for the Palestinians and to all victims of unfortunate events around the world.

Beyond continuously making dua for the vulnerable, we can also look for ways to provide humanitarian support, especially by means of legitimate charity foundations.
