Zakat is your opportunity to make a difference, ease suffering,
and fulfill your duty to Allah and humanity
The third pillar of Islam and a means of purifying one’s
assets through offering charity is called Zakat. The
Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said, “Giving Zakat wipes
away sins just as water extinguishes fire.” Allah has made
giving charity an obligation for the believers to protect
the vulnerable and needy in our society as well as
rewarding the one paying Zakat. This act of selflessly
spending in the way of Allah is one of His most loved
gestures and brings a person closer to his Creator.
Zakat is a religious obligation for Muslims who meet certain criteria and is considered important for a number of reasons, including:
Breaking your assets down into different categories makes the Zakat calculation process really simple.
We have broken down the calculation process into Zakatable assets (gold, silver, cash, savings, business assets etc.) and Deductible liabilities (money you owe, other outgoings due) so you can calculate the Zakat you owe easily.
The amount of Zakat you need to pay will be determined once you have calculated the value of your net assets. You then need to see whether your net assets are equal to, or exceed, the nisab threshold.
You can calculate how much Zakat to pay using our Zakat calculator.
Your zakat has the power to transform the futures!
