CWE-CWR-11 Compassion, Welfare & Environment Community Welfare & Relief CORE Excellence v2.9.7

Free/Subsidised Health Clinic or Care Access Program

Assesses the commitment to community health through accessible, subsidized healthcare. This operationalizes *Iḥsān* by upholding the Maqasid of preserving life (*hifz al-nafs*), intellect (*hifz al-‘aql*), and dignity (*karamah*). Services are delivered without discrimination, preserving confidentiality (amanah) and modesty (haya/satr al‑‘awrah). It honors tawakkul with asbāb through evidence‑based care, while adhering to the prohibition of harm (*lā ḍarar wa lā ḍirār*) and self-destruction (Q 2:195). Spiritual support is optional, patient-led, and delivered with explicit consent, clear boundaries, and without delaying or substituting clinically indicated care.
