What is the difference between zakah and sadaqah? What are the benefits of sadaqah? How does it impact the giver and the whole society?
Sadaqah is not restricted to any special deed of righteousness. The general rule is that all good deeds are sadaqah. Learn about some of them here..
It is unlawful for the one giving sadaqah to remind the recipient of his generosity, to reproach him, or to make a show with his sadaqah.
Now a Muslim, why am I obliged to pay zakah? Why has it been prescribed at all? If it is about charity, shouldn’t I have the choice to give it or not?
What rights do the poor and needy have in Islam? Why are we, Muslims, entitled to pay prescribed amount of money? For the benefit of whom? Shouldn’t it be a matter of individual freedom?
