A Pillar of Islam and Social Responsibility
Zakat is one of the five pillars of Islam, a mandatory form of charity that ensures wealth is distributed fairly within the community. Every eligible Muslim who meets the Nisab threshold—the minimum amount of wealth required to be liable for Zakat—must donate 2.5% of their savings, gold, silver, investments, and other assets after deducting liabilities.
By giving Zakat, individuals purify their wealth, foster social equity, and provide financial relief to the poor, needy, orphans, and those in debt. It is more than just a charitable act; it is a system designed to uplift society and create economic balance.

Zakat is an obligatory charity in Islam, requiring Muslims to donate 2.5% of their qualifying wealth annually. It's considered a form of worship and self-purification, while also addressing social inequality.
Zakat is obligatory for every adult Muslim who possesses wealth equal to or exceeding the nisab threshold for a full lunar year. The wealth must be in excess of one's basic needs and free from debt.
Zakat is calculated at 2.5% of eligible assets including gold, silver, cash, investments, and business inventory. Liabilities are deducted before calculating the final amount due.
