Achievements

• Khyber Pakhtunkhwa is the only Province amongst all the four Provinces where utilization of Zakat Funds during 2007-2008 remained 99.40%. On the basis of the said achievement 1st installment of Zakat Fund for the year 2008-2009 has been released to this Province only. The progress of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa was highly appreciated by Central Zakat Council in its meeting held on 25th October 2008.

• The Zakat Administration is not only catering for its ‘mustahiqeen’ through ‘Guzara Allowance’ but also contributing other Departments like education, Health, Social Welfare, Religious Affairs, and Technical Education, in the field of stipends, health care facilities, technical and vocational training and Rehabilitation etc, thus reducing financial burden on resources to a greater extent.
