LEARN THE LAWS OF ZAKAH

Dear Islamic brothers and sisters! The Rasool of Rahmah, the Intercessor of Ummah َص َّلى ُالله َعلَ ْي ِه َواٰلِ ٖه َو َسل َّم has stated, ‘The foundation of Islam is on five acts: To testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah َع َّز َو َج َّل and Muhammad (َص َّلى ُالله َعلَ ْي ِه َواٰلِ ٖه َو َسل َّم ) is His Rasool; to offer Salah; to pay Zakah; to perform Hajj; and to observe the Siyam [fasts] of Ramadan.’ (Sahih Bukhari, vol. 1, pp. 14, Hadees 8)

In the abovementioned blessed Hadees, Zakah is that act of worship which has been mentioned after Salah. Zakah is the third pillar of Islam and a monetary act of worship. Praise for Zakah- giving people and condemnation for those who do not give it have been mentioned in many blessed Ayahs of the Holy Quran. It is extremely necessary to learn the Shar’i laws of Zakah to gain the excellence and benefits of paying Zakah and also to remain safe from the detriments of not paying it.

Regretfully, the majority of Muslims are unaware of these laws because of the lack of Islamic knowledge. This is the very reason that Zakah sometimes becomes Fard [obligatory] on a person but he remains unaware of it. Remember that it is certainly Fard to learn the laws of Zakah in case a person becomes the owner of Nisab.
