Every year, the sacred obligation of fidyah—a form of compensation for missed fasting during the month of Ramadan—is embraced by Muslims who wish to fulfill their duties while extending compassion to others. In 2025, Pergas Investment Holdings (PIH) once again carried out its annual Fidyah Distribution, an initiative that not only simplifies the process of fidyah payments for the community but also channels it into meaningful support for those in need.
The journey began at local mosques, where congregants paid their fidyah. These masjids entrusted PIH with the responsibility of sourcing and packaging the items on their behalf, allowing the community to focus on the spirit of giving while PIH managed the operational details. By working closely with each mosque, PIH ensured that the packages were thoughtfully curated and tailored to meet the needs of the intended beneficiaries.
Once the planning stage was complete, the preparation and assembly process came to life. Teams of volunteers, guided by PIH staff, worked diligently to pack each fidyah hamper with high-quality food items. These were not simply boxes of provisions, but symbols of compassion, assembled with sincerity and care. Every package represented the generosity of the givers and the hope of bringing ease to those who would receive them.
When the hampers were ready, they were neatly labeled, stacked, and arranged for distribution. Some were delivered back to the masjids for local handovers, while others were transported directly to the homes of beneficiaries. This system ensured that families received their fidyah in the most dignified and convenient way possible, reflecting the true intention of the act—ease, mercy, and community support.
Beyond the logistics, what stood out most was the sense of unity and sincerity. The Fidyah Distribution brought together masjids, congregants, volunteers, and PIH staff into a shared mission of compassion. It showed how an individual’s religious obligation could be transformed into a collective act of kindness, creating ripples of impact far beyond the original intention.
For many beneficiaries, these hampers were more than just groceries—they were reminders that the community has not forgotten them, that generosity continues to flow, and that faith can be practiced through tangible care for others. The project embodies the essence of fidyah: fulfilling one’s duty while uplifting another.
If you too have missed fasting days during Ramadan, this is your opportunity to turn that responsibility into a blessing for others. PIH, through its trusted platform, makes it simple and meaningful to fulfill your fidyah. With just a few clicks, you can ensure your obligations are met while contributing to the wellbeing of those in need.
