What Is Zakat?

Subsequently, the proper establishment of the prayer and offering of the Zakât-Charity must be persistently carried out (Sûrat Al-Mujâdilah, 58:13).

Zakat means giving one portion of your wealth to needy people. Ruhama Foundation collects zakat by distributing the program. Your zakat is an Amanat to us. Zakat is the most effective way to remove poverty from the world. We spend your zakat fund, according to the Quran and sunnah, on the poor and needy.

Zakat Distribution

However, you will correctly set up the Prayer. And you will donate to the Zakât-Charity, giving God a most generous loan. _(Sûrat Al-Muzzammil, 73:20).

Islam has five pillars, and Zakat is one of them. All Muslims who are eligible for Zakat should give Zakat. Alternatively, any adult, sane Muslim with wealth above a particular threshold (known as the Nisab) must contribute 2.5% of such wealth in Zakat. Nisab is the minimum amount of your wealth. If you have Gold or Silver, your Nisab will be 612.36 grams or 87.48 grams of gold.

Donate your Zakat to the Ruhama Foundation. We distribute it to the community affected by the disaster.
