The Book Of Zakaah: A brief but nice booklet discussing Zakaah, those items and amounts upon which it is due, and where it is to be spent. Includes a few important fataawa related to Zakaah.
Short Introduction:
I wrote this treatise in order to sincerely advise and remind
[the Muslims] about the obligation of Zakaah, a matter in
which many Muslims have been too careless and lenient.
Many do not offer their Zakaah in accordance to what has
been legislated in the religion, despite its greatness and its being
one of the five pillars of Islam without which it (Islam)
cannot stand. The Prophet (PBUH) said:
“Islam has been built (by Allah) upon five: The testimony
(Shahaadah) that none has the right to be worshipped
except Allah, and that Muhammad is the Messenger
of Allah (Laa ilaaha ill‐Allah, Muhammad‐ur‐
Rasoolullaah); establishing Salaah, giving Zakaah, Fasting
(Sawm) the month of Ramadan, and performing Hajj
to the House [of Allah] (the Ka’bah).” (Bukhari and Muslim)
The fact that Zakaah is an obligation upon the Muslims is one
of the most apparent indications of the beauty of Islam and the
concern it has for its adherents. The benefits of Zakaah are indeed
numerous, and [it has been made obligatory] due to the
dire need of the poor amongst the Muslims.

Zakat is a certain fixed portion of the wealth and property that a Muslim is obliged to pay yearly for the benefit of the poor in the Muslim community. The payment of Zakat is obligatory, as it is one of the five pillars of Islam. Zakat is the major economic means for establishing social justice and leading the Muslim society towards prosperity and security. Every Muslim who owns a fixed, minimum amount of wealth (called Nisab), and who satisfies certain other conditions, must pay Zakat. The Qur’an mentions Zakat in many places. For example, Allah (S.W.T) says: “Take Sadaqah (obligatory charity) from their wealth in order to purify them and sanctify them with it, and invoke Allah for them. Verily, your invocations are a source of security for them, and Allah is All-Hearer, All-Knower.” (9:103) Read the rest of this entry »
