AbuAbdirrahmaan: 11:42pm On Mar 13 |
Zakat is only for the categories specified by Allah in the Quran: “Zakat expenditures are only for the poor, the needy, those employed to collect it, those whose hearts are to be reconciled, for freeing slaves, those in debt, in the cause of Allah, and for the wayfarer—an obligation from Allah. And Allah is Knowing and Wise.” (Quran 9:60) 📌 Who Can Receive Zakat? 1️⃣ The Poor (Al-Fuqara) 🏠 Those who lack sufficient income and have less than half of their basic needs. 2️⃣ The Needy (Al-Masakin) 🤲 Those who have more than the poor but still struggle to meet their needs. 3️⃣ Zakat Collectors (Al-‘Amilina Alayha) 🏛️ Appointed officials who collect and distribute Zakat. 4️⃣ Those Whose Hearts Are to Be Reconciled 💛 New Muslims or influential non-Muslims who may benefit the Ummah. 5️⃣ Freeing Slaves & Captives (Ar-Riqab) 🕊️ Zakat can be used to free enslaved people or help release Muslim prisoners. 6️⃣ Those in Debt (Al-Gharimun) ⚖️ People burdened by debt who cannot repay. Immediate or urgent debts qualify; long-term or manageable debts do not. 7️⃣ In the Cause of Allah (Fi Sabilillah) 📢 Jihad for Allah’s sake, including Dawah efforts, as recognized by scholars. Zakat can Islamic propagation, but not general fundraising events. 8️⃣ The Wayfarer (Ibn As-Sabil) 🧳 Stranded travelers who lack funds to return home, even if they are wealthy there. 🚫 Who Cannot Receive Zakat? ❌ Mosque, school, or well construction—Zakat is for people, not structures. ❌ Financially stable relatives or acquaintances—If they no longer qualify, Zakat is invalid. ❌ The wealthy and able-bodied earners—The Prophet ﷺ said: "There is no share in Zakat for the wealthy or the strong earner." 🤲 O Allah, grant us sincerity in giving Zakat, purify our wealth, and guide us in fulfilling our obligations.

olabrad:If your religion is so right, why do you go around from one Islamic thread to another wailing about Muslim fast? Why don’t you focus on your ‘amazing’ Christian fast and leave Muslims to their own version of fast? Do you know why you can’t do that? 8 Likes 1 Share |

ALISMILE: Those worshipping cattle didn't say their cattle commanded them to murder or fight against me because I don't worship cattle like them. Ur own idol in Islam command u to murder or fight against me just because I don't serve ur idol So, ur stupid Islam brought criticism upon itself. ![]() |

olabrad:If what you say is true, what’s stopping us annihilating all of you in Nigeria? Why do we still have Christians in northern Nigeria? |

ALISMILE: Have you not tried it in the North? You murdered Deborah just for telling u to stop posting religious contents on an academic-based Whatsapp group. El rufai, the Islamic bigot, oversaw the frequent attack and murder of Christians in southern Kaduna with very high Christian population. You could have done it in the southwest, but our people here are too enlightened to give you opportunity. The existing laws also doesn't permit your evil. That's why you are trying to push for Sharia law in the southwest. Sharia law would have given you cover up to annihilate non-Muslims in the southwest, but it has failed? You can't do it in southeast because Muslim population is very low there. Your religion is evil and fake. Your fasting is also fake. |

ALISMILE: You are the idiot here. That's why you are running away from obvious facts. The facts are too glaring for you to deny. Didn't you murder Deborah in the North for challenging your Islamic stupidity? Didn't el-rufai commit massacre in southern Kaduna well populated by Christians? What's your purpose for pushing for Sharia law? Is it not to subtly dominate southwest and have freedom to showcase your wickedness? Islam is a political cult hiding under the cover of religion |
