How much Zakat do I pay using quran alone?

20% of internet space for Anthony! laugh
So he can spread his message! yay laugh

Do you think 20% is enough?
no! We have to expand the space! yay laugh
-
Do you think the internet is big enough for him?
The space will probably be measured in light years!

rotfl I'm not sure the universe is big enough even though it is still expanding at close to the speed of light.

Im back. Give what you can and what you give to the poor (charity) will be rewarded by God in the life after death. Thats my opinion.
God bless
Hope

Peace to all
wel lies exposed, i can be considered a Quranite and I try to give as much as I can every payday, I dont usually calculate it to a percentage, I just see how much I have left after I pay a few bills and buy a few necessities, if I have enough to make it to next pay day I will usually give away about 50 $ cash to someone in my community that i think needs it most. I started doing this a couple years ago and gave mostly to the elderly, recently ive been giving to the younger adults who are trying to start and raise a family. I just pay attention to my community and if i hear a story about someone going through a hard time for some reason I will usually go to them and give them whatever I have available at the time. They seem to really appreciate it, even though it may only help them very little in the long run, but just imagine if alot of us were doing this, there would be alot less suffering and sadness in the world.
KurtPeace,
Respectfully.I agree. This is what i had in mind and what i have in plan, God willing. You're right, we must all strive to be like this, God willing and only then the community will not only grow, God willing, it will heal itself, God willing.
Peace.

Peace be upon you Alen,
Because I have input in this discussion, I know Arabic beter than you? That is not sound reasoning. I am not your enemy.
I just stated that in my last post ) Sadaqa is charity and Zakaat is purification.
Charity is giving the excess of what you have, that which you dont need to help others, to create a balance in the world where there are not 5% of the world hoarding goods while the rest suffers, etc.
Purification, in the context of this message is cleaning out your subconcious(nafs) of the wrong thoughts, images, ideas, etc. Remember, this message tells us about the nafs(subconcious/spirit), .....thos who PURIFY IT suceed, those who corrupt it fail.
So maintain salaat(programming of the nafs) and bring forth zakaat(purification of it).
bravo
That's exactly it. Zakat = bringing forth/making development/betterment/purification, and sadaqa is charity.
