Emirates Islamic has disbursed funds towards medical and rehabilitation equipment to government and privately run institutions including Ministry of Health, Ajman Club for disabled and Al Ihsan Medical Complex. The bank has also facilitated charitable aid to Sharjah Police, Ajman Police and Ras Al Khaimah Police to improve prison facilities, upgrade the prisons’ pharmaceutical and medical equipment and help support prisoners to pay off their diyya (financial compensation for victims’ families).
