Fundraising from a crowd

Standing in front of a crowd and asking for money is by no means an easy or comfortable endeavour. However, it is a fundraising technique that has been used since the times of the prophet Muhammad SAAW and has proven to be very effective. When the fundraiser reminds the audience of the merits of donating, by quoting references from the Qur’an and Hadith, this softens peoples’ hearts, making them more willing to dig into their pockets.
