Pay Fitrana in the UK for 2026. £5 per person. Obligatory before Eid ul Fitr prayer. Pay online for yourself and dependents.
What Is Fitrana and When to Pay It in the UK
Fitrana is also known as Zakat al Fitr. It is compulsory on every Muslim who has surplus food beyond their basic needs on the night of Eid. The obligation applies to adults and children.
You must pay Fitrana for yourself. You must also pay for anyone you are responsible for. This includes children and dependents. The purpose is clear. It purifies the fasts of Ramadan and allows the poor to celebrate Eid.
For 2026 in the UK, the Fitrana amount is £5 per person. This is based on the cost of staple food. The amount is fixed and should not be reduced.
Timing matters. Fitrana must be paid before the Eid prayer. Paying earlier in Ramadan is allowed and encouraged. Late payment turns it into general charity and does not fulfil the obligation correctly.
Fitrana must reach eligible recipients. It is given to the poor and needy. It is not used for buildings or administration. Correct distribution protects your duty.
Global Helping Hands distributes Fitrana according to Islamic rules. The full £5 reaches those in need so they can prepare for Eid with dignity.
Paying Fitrana online makes the process simple. You select the number of people. You pay the correct amount. The obligation is fulfilled on time.
Fitrana is small in amount but large in impact. It completes your Ramadan and brings joy to families who rely on this support.
