"Zakat Al-Fitr: A Gift of Care,
Nurturing Lives through Charity."

Zakat Al-Fitr, often called “Fitrana” or “Eid Al-Fitr charity,” is a mandatory donation in Islam that has to be given out at the end of Ramadan or before the Eid ul-Fitr prayer. It serves as a means of purification and sharing blessings with the less fortunate.

Who Needs To Fulfil Zakat Al-Fitr?

Zakat Al Fitr is obligatory for every Muslim who possesses the financial means to do so on behalf of themselves and their dependent family members. The core purpose is to help the less fortunate people around us, ensuring that they, too, can partake in the joy of the occasion.

The amount of Zakat al-Fitr is typically calculated based on the cost of staple food items in the local community and is equivalent to the price of one meal for each eligible person. Through this nobel practice, everyone can celebrate Eid with dignity and happiness.

Is there a difference between Zakat Al-Fitr and the annual Zakat?

Zakat al-Fitr is specifically given out in Ramadan. The core purpose of it is to ensure that everyone can enjoy the festivities of Eid. It is calculated based on the current food prices.

On the other hand, Annual Zakat is an annual wealth redistribution calculated on yearly savings and assets.
