Zakat ul-Fitar is a form of charity given to the poor at the end of Ramadan. It is an obligation for every Muslim who possesses the means, ensuring that those in need can participate in the celebrations of Eid al-Fitar. This act of giving purifies the fast and promotes community solidarity
The amount of Zakat ul-Fitr is typically the cost of staple food items (such as wheat, dates, or barley) and is usually set at a minimum of $10 per person. This amount can vary based on local food prices, so please check with us for the specific amount for this year.
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ enjoined Zakat al-Fitr as a purification for the fasting person from idle talk and obscene speech, and as food for the poor.
