To mitigate the above hardship,the immediate community contributes money, food and other assorted items, during the funeral service. However, this support is often not adequate enough to solve the urgent and subsequent financial needs. The contributions made by the community are not sufficient because among others, the pool comes from a small catchment area and the contributions are not made continuously.
Hence the need for a sustainable and substantial resource pool built by consistent monthly contributions coming from a wide catchment area, to provide effective funeral assistance.

Takaaful Assistance
Takaful is an Islamic Cooperative model, an alternative to conventional funeral assistance, wherein all participants contribute the funds in a pool and share the risks according to rules of mutual understanding, cooperation and contribution. In this system, as per common rules of mutual understanding, cooperation and trust; all participants are safeguarded against financial risks.
ThecasewithMuslims;ifoneMuslimisintroublethenalltheMuslimsshouldfeelthepain,whichmeansallmusttrytheirbesttohelphim/her getoutoftrouble.

“…And help one another in righteousness and piety and do not help one another in evil deeds and enmity” (Quran 5v2)” A believer is like a brick for another believer, the one supporting the other”. (Sahih Muslim)

“All Muslims should live together with love, peace and harmony and it should demonstrate like a human body. If there is a pain or trouble in one part of the body, then the whole body is affected with the pain and fever”. (Sahih Muslim)

HowTakaaful works
• Participants make contributions to fund the pool and become its members;
• The pool releases the funds as per the rules and regulations;
• Surplus funds in whole or in part can be shared amongst participants.

Benefits
• Provides financial protection and peace of mind for you and your loved ones, in case of death, when you maintain your contributions;
• Pays out a lump sum. This amount ensures that your loved ones’ future is secure, even in your absence;
• Improving socio-economic status of the community through creation of jobs and businesses to build a self-reliant and a financially inclusivesociety;
• Sadaqat Jariah (recurring charity). At the end of the year the community will decide the kind of sustainable infrastructures the society is in need of,such as schools and hospitals for future benefit;
• A tool for quick data collection and census. The mobile app used will enable the Muslim community to collect data that can be used during population census for better distribution of resources;
• Quick and easy sharing of vital information. The mobile app will enable the Muslim community to easily access and share vital information and messages of national and society interest;
• The pooling of resources brings trust, mutual love and cooperation to the society.

The challenge is to reach a target of 1 million regular paying members in three months, to be able to negotiate terms of agreement in other investments. This requires a concerted effort by all stakeholders to mobilize and utilize the local strength of numbers to achieve this goal.
