forms of ZAKAT
-
hello my name is Deniz im new to this forum. ex sunni im now just is muslim (submitter) and i wondering on what is zakat and hows the best way to do it.
i recently have been giving my excess money to salvation army and other places which help people but my people are telling me dont help them they are kaffir -.- i see it as if they are human and need help.
another question of mine is would sponsoring a child in a poor country counted as zakat ?
cheers and looking forward to peoples responses may Allah be with you this ramadan ) -
Peace,
There are many threads about zakat. Personally I do not consider zakat to have anything to do with charity but is related to the keeping together as a community and thus get purified.
Anyway, if you give charity and a poor person benefits from it then it is accepted as long as it is not followed by insult towards the recipient. And anonymous charity is better.
I am not that knowledgeable about the salvation army but if the money goes to help someone in need it is not wasted money. Kaffir is someone who opposes God you need to remember.
God bless you
