This year, as Shaukat Khanum Hospitals celebrate 30 years of service, we are reminded that many cancer patients are too ill to observe the Ramadan fast. Our founder is unable to mark this special anniversary by making an appeal on their behalf. In his absence, we hope you will continue supporting our patients with your Fidyah, Kaffarah, and Fitrana, showing that we still stand together in the fight against cancer.
Fidyah Explained
If you have a valid reason for not fasting during Ramadan, you must make up the missed fasts as soon as possible. However, if like our patients, you cannot do so due to a long-term illness or old age, you are required to pay Fidyah. This payment is £6 per missed fast, or £180 for the month, and is used to provide two meals for someone in need. Learn more about Fidyah and its conditions by clicking the link below.

Fitrana Explained
Fitrana, also known as Zakat ul Fitr, is a payment made by every Muslim at the end of Ramadan. It is specifically intended to feed the poor at Eid, allowing them to join in the blessings of the occasion. This year, Fitrana with Imran Khan Cancer Appeal is £6 per person – please pay yours promptly so that we can prepare and share food provisions with our patients in time for Eid.
