Summary of Sunni concepts
Compatibility of the legal meaning of zakat with its linguistic meanings
Zakat is the third pillar of Islam
In language, it includes several meanings
Among them are growth, increase, purity, and righteousness
Zakat in Sharia is the amount that must be paid to the deserving person
In the money that reached the legally determined quorum
The term “Zakat” refers to the money that must be paid according to Islamic law
It corresponds to its linguistic meanings
The legally imposed zakat increases money and increases it
With the blessing and goodness that is presented in it
Because of compliance with God's legitimate command
He, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “No amount of wealth is lost in charity.”
Narrated by Muslim
Zakat purifies money and its owner from impurities of forbidden things
In financial transactions
God Almighty said: Take charity from their wealth
She purifies them and purifies them with it
Zakat verifies the goodness of bitterness
Because whoever performs it becomes pure before God
That is, drawing closer to God by doing good deeds
God Almighty said, “The most pious will avoid it.”
He who gives his money is purified
And God Almighty said: He who purifies it has succeeded
That is, he brought himself closer to God by doing good deeds
