Purification through giving
خذ من أموالهم صدقة تطهرهم وتزكيهم بها
"Take from their wealth a charity to purify and cleanse them"
Zakat is the obligatory charitable giving in Islam, representing the third pillar. It purifies wealth and helps redistribute resources to those in need.
Zakat is due when wealth reaches the nisab (minimum threshold) and has been held for one lunar year.
The Quran specifies eight categories: the poor, needy, collectors, those whose hearts are inclined, captives, debtors, in Allah's cause, and travelers.
