What is Zakat?
Zakat is more than a donation – it is a spiritual obligation that purifies wealth and strengthens community.
- One of the five pillars of Islam
Obligatory for every Muslim whose wealth reaches the Nisab.
- Purifies your wealth
"Take from their wealth a charity to purify them." (Q 9:103)
- Supports people in need
Need is assessed before funds are used.
- Used for its intended purpose
Zakat remains separate from other donations and funds eligible support.
