Zakat Services

Alhamdulillah, we are able to help our community members by collecting as well as disbursing Zakat-Ul-Maal to in-need Muslim community members.

Zakat is payable at 2.5% of the wealth one possesses above the nisab.

*The Nisab established by Prophet SAWS was 20 gold dinars (87.48 gm) or 200 silver dirhams (612.36 gm). The scholars have given fatwas regarding the permissibility of using either one. Depending upon which standard you use, your Nisab threshold will be higher or lower.

akat-ul-maal can be submitted to the Zakat Committee in the form of cash, check or online payment.

The Zakat application form must be turned into the Zakat Committee for processing, which takes about 14 business days. If this is an emergency, please let the Zakat Committee know (zakat@taqwa.net). All applications must be complete.
