KnPanel, I find that hard to believe. Pakistanis are less than 2% of the population of the UK. While Muslims are required to give charity (2.5% of assets annually according to one web page I found), the relatively small number of Pakistanis in the UK makes the veracity of your claim suspect. I found an estimate of the total charitable giving of the British to be close to 10 billion pounds. If every Pakistani man, woman, and child gave 1,000 pounds, that would only be slightly over 1 billion pounds. Also, I suspect that Muslims donate almost entirely to Muslim causes (just as frum Jews donate almost entirely to Jewish causes), so the impact of their giving on non-Muslims is minimal.
