After the Accident

August 5, 2024

Talha, who is 47 years old and recently separated from his wife, has been living in Australia on a bridging visa. His life took a sudden and difficult turn about a year ago when he was involved in a serious car accident. The accident left him with significant back and leg injuries, making it impossible for him to work. Talha did not have insurance at the time, and he received only limited financial assistance for his medical expenses, which has since run out.

Initially, Talha relied on his savings to cover his living expenses, but as the costs of medication and daily needs mounted, those savings were quickly depleted. With no other financial support available and his injuries preventing him from finding work, Talha began to fall behind on his rent and struggled to meet his basic needs.

Desperate and unsure where to turn, Talha reached out to us at the National Zakat Foundation. After carefully assessing his situation, it was determined that he was eligible for support. Through your Zakat, NZF was able to assist Talha with his rent and provide for his essential needs, giving him the relief he so desperately needed during this challenging time.

Talha’s story is a reminder of how quickly life can change, and how vital it is to have a community that cares. Thanks to your Zakat, Talha can focus on his recovery without the constant worry of financial instability.
