Help Those in Need

Ramadan is when expenses increase for the poor too. Your Zakat helps families buy food for Iftar and Suhoor, purchase Eid clothes, and meet their basic needs during this sacred time.

🕌

Fulfill Your Pillar

Zakat is one of the five pillars of Islam — an obligation, not optional charity. Ramadan is a perfect reminder to evaluate your wealth and fulfill this essential duty.

Common Zakat Mistakes During Ramadan

Many Muslims unknowingly make these errors. Make sure you avoid them.

❌ Confusing Zakat with Sadaqah

Zakat is a mandatory 2.5% on qualifying wealth. Sadaqah is voluntary charity. They are not interchangeable — both should be given, but Zakat is an obligation.

❌ Forgetting Gold Jewelry

Many people forget to include their gold jewelry in Zakat calculation. According to the Hanafi school, all gold — whether worn or stored — is Zakatable.

❌ Not Calculating for One Full Year

Zakat is due on wealth you've held for one full lunar year (Hawl). If your wealth drops below Nisab during the year, the clock resets.

❌ Delaying Payment

Once your Zakat is due, delaying payment without reason is not permissible. Calculate and pay promptly — Ramadan is the perfect time.

Ramadan Zakat FAQs

While Zakat can be paid at any time of the year once it is due, many scholars recommend paying during Ramadan because rewards for good deeds are multiplied in this blessed month. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was most generous during Ramadan.
Yes, according to many scholars (especially Hanafi), you can pay Zakat in advance before its due date. If your Zakat anniversary falls during Ramadan, you can pay it before Ramadan begins to help those in need prepare for the blessed month.
No, Zakat al-Fitr (Fitrana) is a separate, smaller obligation paid before Eid prayer. It is approximately 2.5 kg of staple food or its monetary equivalent per person. Regular Zakat (Zakat al-Mal) is the 2.5% on wealth above Nisab. Both are separate obligations.
The Quran specifies 8 categories of Zakat recipients in Surah At-Tawbah (9:60): the poor, the needy, Zakat administrators, those whose hearts are to be reconciled, slaves seeking freedom, those in debt, in the way of Allah, and travelers in need. You cannot give Zakat to your parents, children, or spouse.
Yes, you can distribute your Zakat among multiple eligible recipients. Many scholars recommend giving a meaningful amount to fewer people rather than spreading it thinly. This helps make a real difference in each recipient's life.
