The initiative was announced on Tuesday, June 4 and is part of the directives of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum. It demonstrates the country’s leaders are still committed to improving well-being for citizens and social peace among them.

Supporting Citizens Ahead of Eid Al Adha
The exemption was given to a total of 303 Emirati citizens, who were dealing with financial hardship. The decision being made during Eid Al Adha and the first 10 days of Dhul Hijjah is noticeable, since this time is valued by Muslims for reflection, worship and good deeds.
It represents the UAE’s leaders’ commitment to generosity and compassion which is even stronger during religious celebrations. These programs also agree with the nation’s values, since low-income families, retirees and other vulnerable groups are often helped by new policies.
A Broader Culture of Generosity
This act is part of the UAE’s pattern of showing compassion to the country in need. Earlier, Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE, decided to waive debts for 222 people, particularly retirees and those supported by social aid. Officials also made this decision to lower family costs and ensure people could live with dignity and stability.
The leadership also went a step further by having 963 prisoners released across the nation earlier this week. Because their financial obligations were paid by the state, these inmates are now able to celebrate Eid with their families and resume normal life outside prison. Different emirates have also done this, meaning there is a strong collective feeling of kindness and understanding throughout the UAE.
Strengthening the Social Fabric
The latest decision from Sheikh Hamdan shows that Dubai’s leadership is always committed to improving the lives of its citizens and ensuring they receive proper social care. The initiative lightens the load on families and thus boosts the finances of families while also increasing the sense of safety and camaraderie among community members.
