The Subtle Problems of Charity by Jane Addams is about the intricacies of caregiving work and the complications of helping others. Excerpt: "We find in ourselves the longing for a wider union than that of family or class, and we say that we have come to include all men in our hopes, but we fail to realize that all men are hoping, and are part of the same movement of which we are a part. Many of the difficulties in philanthropy come from an unconscious division of the world into the philanthropists and those to be helped. It is all assumption of two classes, and against this class assumption our democratic training revolts as soon as we begin to act upon it."

This book was mooted by the desire to disseminate knowledge of Islamic philanthropy to the community to help create a better understanding of philanthropy. It is hoped that an in-depth exploration of this book can help readers enrich their knowledge of Islamic philanthropy and inspire them to practice it in their daily lives. This book targets readers from various backgrounds. For example, it can be referenced and provide an overview to students to engage in volunteer activities because there are chapters in this book that focus on students. This book is also expected to assist researchers and academicians in exploring Islamic philanthropy more widely in all fields of contemporary studies. It is also an essential reference for scholars, international organizations, development agencies, governments, experts, and anyone with an interest in Islamic philanthropy. Admittedly, there are still many fields of philanthropic research that have not been extensively discussed, such as halal, built environment, health, and more.
