Shura governance
No Leone moves without scholarship. The Shura Board — senior scholars and community trustees — must approve every disbursement before it is executed, and their names are published beside each approval.
The rules the fund cannot break
- The Waqf principal is never spent. Endowment gifts are preserved; only their fruits fund the community.
- Interest never enters the system. Accounts, instruments, and partners are screened for Shari'ah compliance.
- Spending requires Shura approval — in writing, in public. A disbursement without an approval record simply cannot be paid.
- Everything is published. Balances, projects, receipts, and approver names appear on the public dashboard.
Questions people actually ask
Is my donation really anonymous on the public page?
Yes. The public dashboard reads only aggregated snapshots — never individual transactions — so amounts and timing can't be traced back to you.
What happens to my LE 1 after I dial the code?
It lands in the fund you chose, appears in that fund's public balance, and can only leave through a Shura-approved disbursement — which is then published with receipts.
Who are the Shura Board?
Senior scholars and trustees from across Sierra Leone's Muslim community. Their names appear on every approval they sign — accountability is personal.
Can I give more than LE 1, or make a one-off gift?
Of course. Recurring Jummah giving is the heartbeat, but one-time Sadaqah and Waqf endowment gifts of any size are welcome.
What are Mudarabah and Qard Hasan?
Phase 2 of the fund: Mudarabah provides halal growth capital to small businesses with profit shared back to the fund; Qard Hasan gives interest-free loans repaid when ease returns. Both launch after the Shura Board approves their frameworks.
