Part 3 | Zakat Aur Fitra Kitna Dena Hai? Ek Sahabi Ka Waqia | Moulana Qari Rayees Ahmed Khan Qadri

Описание: Topic: Zakat, Fitrah & Spending in the Path of Allah | A Beautiful Incident of a Sahabi

In this powerful bayan by hazrath Moulana Qari Rayees Ahmed Khan Qadri Bangalore. we reflect on the importance of Zakat, Sadaqah, and spending in the path of Allah (Fi Sabilillah). Islam teaches us that wealth is a trust from Allah, and the true success lies in using that wealth to help others and earn the pleasure of Allah.

Allah says in the Qur’an:

“Those who spend their wealth in the way of Allah are like a seed that grows seven ears; in every ear is a hundred grains.”
(Surah Al-Baqarah 2:261)

This means that when a person gives charity sincerely for the sake of Allah, Allah multiplies the reward many times over.





Importance of Zakat in Islam

Zakat is one of the five pillars of Islam. It is not just charity but an obligation upon every eligible Muslim. Zakat purifies our wealth and helps remove poverty from society.

Allah says:

“Take from their wealth a charity by which you purify them and cause them increase.”
(Surah At-Tawbah 9:103)

By giving Zakat:

Our wealth becomes pure

Our hearts become less attached to material things

We help the poor, needy, and oppressed

How Much Zakat Should Be Given?

Zakat is 2.5% of your total savings and wealth that has been held for one lunar year, if it reaches the Nisab (minimum threshold).

This includes:

Cash savings

Gold and silver

Business assets

Investments

If your wealth reaches the Nisab and one year passes, 2.5% must be given as Zakat.

What is Fitrah (Zakat-ul-Fitr)?

Zakat-ul-Fitr (Fitrah) is a charity given before Eid-ul-Fitr. It is obligatory on every Muslim who has the means.

The purpose of Fitrah is:

To purify the fasts of Ramadan

To help the poor celebrate Eid

It must be given before the Eid prayer so that the needy can also enjoy the day of Eid.

Value of Fitrah

Fitrah is usually equal to the price of around 2–3 kg of staple food such as wheat, barley, or dates.

Many scholars estimate it according to local food prices. In many places today, it is roughly the cost of basic staple food for one person.

Spending in the Path of Allah

Charity is not limited to Zakat alone. Islam encourages Muslims to give Sadaqah regularly.

The Prophet ﷺ said:

“Charity does not decrease wealth.”
(Sahih Muslim)

Instead, charity:

Brings barakah (blessings) in wealth

Protects from calamities

Earns immense reward in the hereafter

Even a small amount given sincerely can be very valuable in the sight of Allah.

Final Reminder

Ramadan is the best time to increase our charity, pay our Zakat, and help those in need. Let us remember that whatever we spend in the path of Allah is never wasted. Allah promises to return it with greater blessings in this life and the next.

May Allah accept our Zakat, Sadaqah, and good deeds. Ameen.
