Zakat Appeal

Zakat Appeal

Zakat is one of the pillars of Islam that must be met by the Muslims who meet the certain criteria. Sharing your zakat can change the world. You can share your zakat with the most vulnerable people. You can relieve someone’s hunger, quench someone’s thirst, ease someone’s burden, and end someone’s struggle.

There are eight categories of beneficiaries who are eligible to receive Zakat, which are clearly stated in the Quran (Surah At – Taubah:60) Allah (swt) says in this verse: “Zakat expenditures are only for the poor and for the needy and for those who are employed to collect (zakat) and for bringing hearts together (for Islam) and to free captives (or slaves) and for those in debt and for the cause of Allah and for the (stranded) travelers- an obligation (imposed) by Allah. And Allah is knowing and Wise.”
