ISLAMIC WORSHIPS OF "ZAKAAT"(POOR-DUE)
Q 1: What is “Zakaat زکوٰۃ”?
Answer: “Zakaatزکوٰۃ ” is, indeed, the name of permanent use of the attribute of sympathy and compassion which an affluent Muslim naturally has for his poor brother-in-faith or to say practical expression of sympathy and extension of a specific financial assistance and help by Muslims to one another is Zakaat زکوٰۃ(poor-due,poor-tax). But according to Shar'i terminology, Zakaat means to pay and make a Muslim beggar, indigent owner of a particular portion, share of one's riches, property on which Zakaat is due as fixed by Shari'ah (شریعۃ).
