Zakat-Al-Mal:
A pillar of compassion and justice
Zakat is the third pillar of Islam, a sacred obligation that purifies wealth and uplifts the vulnerable. It’s not just a financial duty; it’s a spiritual act of worship that strengthens community bonds and ensures no one is left behind. Every eligible Muslim is required to give a portion of their wealth once a lunar year has passed, helping to meet the basic needs of those in hardship.
What Makes Zakat Unique?
Zakat is built on principles of compassion, justice, and accountability. It’s governed by clear guidelines that protect both the giver and the receiver.
-

Hawl (One Lunar Year)
Zakat is due only if your qualifying wealth remains above the nisab for a full Islamic year.
