Zakat (Zakatul Mal) is literally translated into "that which purifies" and generally refers to a religious 'levy' or 'tax' which is an obligation composed of a certain percentage of every kind of personal income to provide relief to the poor and less fortunate. Zakat is a religious duty of every Muslim whose wealth exceeds a defined limit. As conferred by Allah (SWT) all individuals whose wealth exceeds this limit are required to spend 2.5% of their total income annually to the needy and less fortunate. Zakat is of paramount importance as by Quranic Ranking it is the third pillar of Islam meaning it is the next after prayer in importance.
The second type of Zakat is called Sadaqatul Fitr (commonly known as Fitra) and is paid during the month of Ramadan until the day of Eid-ul-Fitr. Fitra is compulsory on every individual that can support him or herself and their family beyond the night of Eid. Fitra is due for every family member including children and infants.
This year, the recommended amount for Sadaqatul Fitr is $10 per person.
