Charity.

Inspired by the Noble Quran, I donated 10 EUR Zakat for Palestine.

Verse 2.177 (Picktall translation) sums up the Quranic view of charity and almsgiving (another name for zakat is the poor due):

It is not righteousness that ye turn your faces to the East and the West; but righteous is he who believeth in Allah and the Last Day and the angels and the Scripture and the Prophets; and giveth his wealth, for love of Him, to kinsfolk and to orphans and the needy and the wayfarer and to those who ask, and to set slaves free; and observeth proper worship and payeth the poor due. And those who keep their treaty when they make one, and the patient in tribulation and adversity and time of stress. Such are they who are sincere. Such are the God fearing. – 2:177

May the innocent civilians be protected from danger and be given food to eat.
