Akhuwat USA

Akhuwat USA

One of Akhuwat’s primary deviations from conventional microfinance is that it charges no interest rates. Akhuwat has sought to base its movement on the principles of Qarz-e-Hassn found in the Islamic tradition, which entails helping someone in need with interest-free loans, a practice favored over charity and doles. While drawing on the tradition of Qarz-e-Hassn, Akhuwat has, over time, grown to incorporate many of the lessons learned from conventional microfinance movements from across the globe, as well.

Eat vegetarian, vegan, or plant-based eating. 5. ECOLOGY/ NATURE. Take bold actions towards the end of violence to all animals of factory farming and factory agriculture. 6. COMPANION ANIMALS. Go to the end. Jump and create wings on the way down. Upset the norm to end the violence and euthanizations of shelter animals. 7. BE A LEADER. Do not be a follower. You’ve been given a mile. Don’t take only an inch. At AHIMSA we believe there are two ways each of us must choose to view today's humanity. Hopeful or Fearful. We see Hopeful. We see people who are manifesting a bridge to a new world. People who are bridging today’s interregnum. Creating each day, a world of peace and nonviolence towards humanity, animals, and our planet. To that end, we work to live an Ahimsa way of life. See what that means. You can too. Join us and others at www.AhimsaHumaneSociety.org
