Syedna Khuzaima Qutbuddin RA founded Zahra Hasanaat Trust (ZHT) in Ramadaan 1417H. The ethos of the organization is to help Mumineen and Ibadullah by engaging personally with those in need to understand how to best support the individual and/or family holistically (e.g. medical, education, food, housing, counseling etc). Zahra Hasanaat has helped many many Mumineen and continues to do so with Syedna Taher Fakhruddin TUS doa mubarak and guidance and with the efforts of sincere and dedicated volunteers. ZHT focuses its efforts in low income urban areas, especially in the slums of Mumbai. In these very low-income households, even small medical expenses are sometimes unaffordable.
