Join us on Saturday, April 6 at 3 PM EST for Zakat Made Simple with Sh. Aarij Anwer, as he addresses the many misconceptions about Zakat, along with a live Q&A session!
It’s that time of year again! Ramadan is here and many of us pay our Zakat during this blessed month to reap the highest reward. But how many of us actually know about this pillar of Islam? Do we honour this pillar, by learning about its details and how to offer it in the best way possible, the way we do with Salah?
Some of the most common questions we receive include:
- What is Zakat and how does it differ from other forms of charity?
- Who is Zakat due upon and when?
- How is Zakat calculated and on what assets?
- What is the ruling on missed Zakat?
