In Islam, Zakat is one of the five pillars and a fundamental act of worship. It is not just a charitable contribution but an obligatory duty for every financially capable Muslim to help those in need. The word “Zakat” means purification, and it is a means of purifying one’s wealth and soul by giving a portion of it to the less fortunate. The purpose of Zakat is to reduce inequality, eliminate poverty, and foster social harmony within the community.
At Emergency Response for Humanity (ERH), we are dedicated to utilizing Zakat donations to support the most vulnerable members of our society. We ensure that your Zakat contributions reach those who are truly deserving, including the poor, the needy, orphans, widows, and other eligible recipients as prescribed in Islam.
Importance of Zakat in Islam
1. A Divine Obligation: Zakat is a compulsory act of worship ordained by Allah (SWT). The Quran states:
“And establish prayer and give Zakat, and whatever good you put forward for yourselves – you will find it with Allah.” (Surah Al-Baqarah 2:110)
2. Purification of Wealth: Zakat purifies your wealth and brings blessings (barakah) into your life. It is a means of cleansing your soul from greed and selfishness.
3. Social Justice: Zakat helps to bridge the gap between the rich and the poor, promoting social equality and reducing poverty.
4. A Source of Mercy: By giving Zakat, Muslims can earn the mercy of Allah and gain protection from calamities, as the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said:
“Charity extinguishes sin just as water extinguishes fire.” (Hadith, Tirmidhi)
