Software · the CRM for Muslim nonprofits
A first-in-class CRM, built for Muslim nonprofits.
Every conventional nonprofit CRM was built around general donation flows — campaigns, year-end appeals, lapsed-donor re-engagement. None of them understand zakat. None of them understand restricted-fund honor at the level Islamic financial discipline requires. And none of them give donors a real-time view of what their dollar actually did.
We built this CRM on the operations of an actual Muslim nonprofit, with AI-assisted accounting and a per-donation tracking link the rest of the sector hasn’t built yet. The result: unmatched financial transparency, zakat handled to the letter, and donor trust earned at the per-gift level instead of the annual-report level.
The headline feature
Every donation gets its own tracking link.
Donors don’t need to take a year-end report on faith. They scan a QR code or open a link from their email receipt — and see exactly what happened to that specific dollar: which fund it went into, which programs drew from it, how many beneficiaries that translated into, and photos and narratives from the field once the impact report is filed. No other CRM in the nonprofit space, Muslim or otherwise, offers this. This is the kind of standard the ummah can set for the rest of the world.
- →Per-donation transparency. Each donation gets a unique, unguessable tracking token. The page is public-link-shareable but the token itself is the proof.
- →Pending → partial → fulfilled. Status updates as program disbursements draw from the donation. The donor can see today and check back tomorrow.
- →Impact records on every disbursement. Beneficiaries counted, photos from the field, narrative summary. The donor sees the people their donation reached, not just a category.
- →Branded to your org. Logo, accent color, contact email — set once and rendered on every tracker page. The link reads as your org’s page, not ours.
- →Processor-fee honesty. If your org absorbed the payment-processor’s transaction fee from a separate admin fund, the donor sees that explicitly. If the donor covered it, that’s shown too. No quiet leakage.

How it was used
Each donation is tracked on its own. When the fund pays for something, we draw from the oldest donations sitting in the fund first — so your dollars literally fund the next zakat distributions that go out the door.

Impact details →Processing fee on this donation
Your donation of $500 incurred a $14.80 transaction fee — that’s what the payment processor (Stripe / Helcim / etc.) charges to move the funds from your card to our account. Jabal Foundation covered that fee from a separate admin fund — your full $500 reaches the zakat fund, exactly as you intended.
How overhead is handled for your donation
Operating costs at Jabal Foundation are covered by a separate Admin & operations fund, seeded by donors who chose to specifically cover overhead. That means 100% of your $500 is directed to the zakat fund — none of it covers wire fees or admin costs.

The operator view
And here’s what the org sees behind the donor link.
Same per-donation discipline, from the other side of the dashboard. AI handles the rote work — donor matching, fund matching, designation-rule suggestions — and the operator approves rather than types. Every figure on this page traces back to a specific donation, a specific transfer, and a specific impact record. Nothing is aggregated past the point of accountability.

Year-end zakat report (with the 8-category breakdown), 990 worksheet, donor annual statement, fund-by-fund expense report, restricted-fund honor audit. Every report ties back to per-donation tracking links — the auditor reads the same data the donor reads.
Illustrative. Live dashboard shows your org’s actual data on the same surfaces.
What you get out of the box
A complete operating system for a Muslim nonprofit.
- zakat
Zakat-strict fund segregation
Each fund carries its own zakat policy and scholarly attestation. Zakat funds are by default ineligible for overhead — togglable per scholarly opinion. Restricted funds honor donor designation at the dollar level, not the campaign level.
- link
Per-donation tracking link
Every donation gets a unique branded tracker page with status, allocation breakdown, beneficiary counts, photos, and impact narratives. Donors can share their link, frame it, or just check back six months from now.
- ai
AI-assisted matching & reconciliation
Imports from Mercury, Stripe, Venmo, ACH lists. AI suggests donor matches, fund matches, and designation rules. The accountant approves rather than typing — minutes of work where there used to be hours.
- portal
Branded donor portal
Donors sign in with a personal token and see their full giving history, all tracker links, an annual statement, and (where available) a cumulative-impact summary across every gift they've made to the org.
- impact
Impact records with photos and narratives
Every program disbursement can attach an impact record — beneficiaries served, narrative, photos. These flow to the right donor trackers automatically, so the people who funded the program see who it reached.
- fees
Fees-pool / overhead transparency
A waterfall structure for which funds cover admin overhead first. Primary fund drains before backup fund, backup before fallback. Donors of any program-restricted gift see explicitly that their dollars went to the program.
- crm
CRM, campaigns, and segmentation
Donor tags, designation rules, email templates, campaign sends with one-click unsubscribe, full email log. Built so a Muslim nonprofit can run modern donor engagement without renting the donor list to a third-party SaaS.
- zakatreport
Zakat reporting + recipient ledger
Zakat events recorded against the eight Qur'ānic categories with recipient detail. Year-end zakat report ready to publish — and ready for an Ihsan Standard audit at the same time.
- compliance
Compliance & governance
Board members, board meetings, governance documents, tax filings (990, state), annual reports, compliance deadlines. The administrative scaffolding most Muslim orgs are duct-taping together — built in.
- inkind
In-kind donations + invoices
In-kind gifts get their own trackable record (with their own tracker link). Invoices to grant funders are first-class. Volunteer hours logged for staff-time accounting.
- endowment
Endowment / waqf tracking
Endowment entries tracked separately from operating funds. Designed to integrate natively with Afterfund — the digital waqf platform — so orgs can route long-term gifts straight into a perpetual pool.
- receipt
Tax receipts + donor statements
Year-end tax-receipt PDF on demand from the donor portal. Annual donor statement auto-generates from the data already on file.
Why not just use Salesforce / Bloomerang / Kindful?
Because none of them understand zakat. Or restricted funds. Or transparency at the donor level.
- ·Fund accounting is a checkbox — "restricted" vs. "unrestricted" is the whole vocabulary.
- ·No concept of zakat, no segregation of zakat funds from overhead-eligible funds, no scholarly attestation on the fund itself.
- ·Donor transparency stops at the annual report. The donor never sees what their specific dollar did.
- ·Built for general-public US fundraising — annual gala, year-end appeal, lapsed-donor re-engagement.
- ·Pricing assumes a $5M+ org with a dedicated dev-ops team. Small Muslim orgs pay enterprise prices for features they can't use.
- ·Funds carry a zakat policy, a scholarly attestation, a fees-tier setting, and overhead-eligibility — first-class.
- ·Every donation gets its own tracking link. Donors see status, allocations, beneficiaries, photos, narratives.
- ·AI-assisted matching, reconciliation, and designation rules. Less typing, fewer mistakes, audit-ready output.
- ·Built on the operations of a real Muslim nonprofit, end-to-end. Every quirk that came up was solved on the same screen the operator used.
- ·Designed for Muslim orgs at every size. Free for small orgs during the pilot. Affordable rather than enterprise.
AI built in — where it actually helps
AI on the accountant’s side. Not in the donor’s inbox.
AI is used for the work that’s tedious and high-volume — never for the work that touches the donor relationship. That’s a deliberate line.
Donation-to-donor matching
A Mercury or Stripe payout lands. The CRM proposes a donor match based on email, name, and prior donations — flagging ambiguity for human review rather than silently guessing. The accountant approves or corrects in one click.
Donation-to-fund matching
The donor wrote 'For the Gaza fund' in the memo. The CRM proposes the matching active fund, accounting for the donation date being inside the fund's scope window. No more six-month-later 'wait, where did that gift get applied?'
Designation-rule learning
When a donor's giving pattern is consistent, the CRM proposes a designation rule: 'this donor's monthly gifts go to Yemen relief by default — apply automatically and tell me when a gift breaks the pattern.'
Impact-record drafting
When a field worker uploads photos and a one-line description, the CRM drafts the structured impact record (beneficiaries, narrative, dates) and queues it for the field lead to confirm. The work goes from twenty minutes to two.
Recommended partner integration · waqf
A native integration with the waqf institution Muslim donors already trust.
We don’t want every Muslim nonprofit re-building the same waqf engine from scratch. Afterfund already does this work at scale, and the CRM is being designed to plug into it natively:
Rebuilds the Sunnah of waqf for the current generation: donations get invested in a halal investment fund, and the perpetual profits keep flowing to the causes the donor picked. On average a single gift generates roughly 33× face-value impact over a lifetime, and continues making impact after the donor passes. Already partnered with Paani Project to perpetually fund new water wells.
Route long-term gifts straight from the donate page into a perpetual waqf pool. Tracking links, donor portal entries, and zakat-style attestation flow through to perpetual gifts the same way they flow through to one-time gifts.
Pilot program
Free for the pilot. Affordable from there.
The CRM is rolling out in pilot stages. The goal is to get small Muslim orgs onto the right operational footing for free — and price the rest of the network affordably enough that cost is never the reason an org stays on a worse tool.
- →All features, no usage limits.
- →We help set up the funds, the zakat policies, the fees-coverage waterfall.
- →AI-assisted import of your existing donor and donation history.
- →Direct line to the team during the pilot.
We need to see if we can scale the free model. If we can't, we'll price it fairly. The goal is building the ecosystem — not extracting revenue from it.
- →All core features included.
- →Per-donation tracking links.
- →Donor portal + annual statement.
- →Community support.
- →All small-org features +
- →Higher import + storage quotas.
- →Priority support.
- →Bespoke setup conversation included.
The point isn’t to extract revenue from the sector — the point is to collectively improve every Muslim institution, cut costs across the network, and share what works. Whatever small orgs save on CRM fees, we want flowing to programs.
Custom setups
Your org runs differently? We’ll build it differently.
Every Muslim nonprofit is shaped a little differently — a masjid that runs a school, a relief org that runs a clinic, a food pantry that’s also a community center. If the standard setup doesn’t fit your org’s shape, reach out. We do bespoke setups, custom fields, custom workflows, integrations with whatever you’re already using.
Naming · working in progress
The CRM still needs a name. A few candidates we’re considering.
Send feedback at the engagement form. We’ll commit to a name before the pilot exits.
- Mīzānميزان
The scale, the balance
The Qur'ān's recurring metaphor for honest weighing — for accounting that doesn't tip in either direction. Sūrah al-Raḥmān: 'so that you do not transgress in the balance.' Fits a CRM whose purpose is honest measurement.
- Ḥisābحساب
The accounting, the reckoning
Bookkeeping and Day-of-Reckoning carried in one word. Reminds an org's operators that the books aren't just for the auditor.
- Riʿāyaرعاية
Stewardship, care
What an org actually does with donor trust — care for the gift, care for the beneficiary. Softer brand voice.
- Niyyaنية
Intention
The donor's stated reason for giving. Naming the CRM after donor intention puts the user-facing contract — restricted-fund honor — right on the label.
The whole point: collectively improving every Muslim institution.
Cheaper than enterprise SaaS. Built around zakat fidelity from the ground up. Donor trust earned at the per-gift level. The CRM is one of the ways we want to make the standard accessible — not just a published rubric, but the actual tooling to run a Muslim nonprofit at the bar.
