Assalamu Alaykum
Zakah is one of the pillars of Islam and a very important and rewarding deed. Let’s help our new brother who embraced Islam by the Rahma of Allah سبحانه وتعالى from our zakah or other sadaqah.
Allah says:
ِنَّمَا الصَّدَقَاتُ لِلْفُقَرَاءِ وَالْمَسَاكِينِ وَالْعَامِلِينَ عَلَيْهَا وَالْمُؤَلَّفَةِ قُلُوبُهُمْ وَفِي الرِّقَابِ وَالْغَارِمِينَ وَفِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَابْنِ السَّبِيلِ ۖ فَرِيضَةً مِّنَ اللَّهِ ۗ وَاللَّهُ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌ
English Meaning:
“Zakat expenditures are only for the poor, the needy, those employed to collect it, those whose hearts are to be reconciled, for freeing captives, for those in debt, for the cause of Allah, and for the stranded traveler — an obligation from Allah. And Allah is Knowing and Wise.”
Surah Tawbah 60
Rasulullah ﷺ said:
بُنِيَ الإِسْلَامُ عَلَى خَمْسٍ: شَهَادَةِ أَنْ لَا إِلٰهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ، وَإِقَامِ الصَّلَاةِ، وَإِيتَاءِ الزَّكَاةِ، وَصَوْمِ رَمَضَانَ، وَحَجِّ الْبَيْتِ
English Meaning:
“Islam is built upon five: testifying that there is no deity except Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, establishing prayer, giving Zakat, fasting Ramadan, and performing Hajj.”
Sahih al-Bukhari 8
Sahih Muslim 16
The affidavit you see below is of a Mu’allaf brother Yusuf. He embraced Islam Allahu Akbaar and he is suffering from poverty. Let us help him for the sake of Allah.
