Assalāmu ʿalaykum wa raḥmatullāhi wa barakātuh,
As we approach the end of Ramadan, we would like to remind everyone about Zakāt al-Fiṭr.
Zakāt al-Fiṭr is a charity that must be given before the Eid prayer on behalf of every member of the household — including children. Its purpose is to purify our fast and ensure that those in need can also celebrate Eid.
The amount this year is [ $15 per person].
We kindly encourage everyone to pay their Zakāt al-Fiṭr as soon as possible, so it can reach those in need in time for Eid.
You may arrange your payment through the masjid or the designated collection points.
Jazākum Allāhu khayran, and may Allah accept our fasting and our charity.

✅ Gold Nisab: $17,242.25 AUD

The community is encouraged to calculate Zakat based on the silver Nisab to maximise support for those in need.

Zakat becomes due once a full lunar year has passed from the time wealth reaches the Nisab.

✅ Zakat Al-Fitr: AROUND $20 per person

Early payment is encouraged so it reaches recipients on time.

Please ensure your Zakat is given through registered and reputable charities and ANIC partners.

May Allah accept our fasting, charity and worship, and grant the community a blessed Ramadan.
