About Zakat
What is Zakat?
As one of the central pillars of Islam, Zakat is a mandatory act of worship that requires eligible Muslims to give a portion of their wealth to those in need. It applies to any sane adults who possess wealth exceeding a specific threshold called Nisab. Zakat requires a 2.5% deduction from the wealth that surpasses the Nisab. The commandment of Zakat holds numerous divine wisdoms, one of which is the purification of one's wealth. Fulfilling this commandment is not without its rewards, as the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ stated: “Giving charity wipes away sins just as water extinguishes fire.” “Lend unto Allah ﷾ a goodly loan,” (57:18), for Allah ﷾ has promised to “double it, and will prepare a rich reward” (57:18).
وَأَقِیمُوا۟ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَءَاتُوا۟ ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ وَمَا تُقَدِّمُوا۟ لِأَنفُسِكُم مِّنۡ خَيۡرٍ تَجِدُوهُ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ
“And establish prayer and give Zakat, and whatever good you put forward for yourselves - you will find it with Allah”
Surah 2, Verse 110Zakat Aid
