Zakah Foundation
"Take alms from their wealth in order to purify them and sanctify them with it."[Surah at-Tauba:103] Islam provides two ways to care for the needy within the community: Zakat-ul-Fitr, and Zakat-ul-Maal. Zakat-ul-Fitr is the food that is given at the end of Ramadhaan, before the Eid prayers, and distributed to the needy within one's community. Zakat-ul-Maal is the amount donated from the wealth that has been in one's possession for one full calendar year. The following information applies to the Zakah paid on one's wealth. For information on Zakat-ul-Fitr, including suggesting needy families, please contact the Imam's Office. Pay Zakah
"Whoever pays the Zakah on his wealth will have its evil removed from him."[Hasan; Recorded by Ibn Khuzaimah and at-Tabaraani]
