Learn and Know about Zakat Charity In Quran Hadith Islam

Legal Ruling:

Allah has obligated Zakat upon every Muslim who possesses a minimum amount of wealth, according to some conditions. Allah made Zakah obligatory in His Book by His statement:
خُذْ مِنْ اَمْوَالِهِمْ صَدَقَةً تُطَهِّرُهُمْ وَ تُزَكِّيْهِمْ بِهَا
Take from their wealth Sadaqah in order to purify them and sanctify them with it. (9:103)

And His statement:

يٰۤاَيُّهَا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْۤا اَنْفِقُوْا مِنْ طَيِّبٰتِ مَا كَسَبْتُمْ وَ مِمَّاۤ اَخْرَجْنَا لَكُمْ مِّنَ الْاَرْضِ
(O you who believe!Spend form the good things which you have (legally) earned, and of that which We have produced form the earth for you.) (2:267)

And His Statement:

وَ اَقِيْمُوا الصَّلٰوةَ وَ اٰتُوا الزَّكٰوةَ
And establish the prayer (Salat) and pay the obligatory charity (Zakat). (73:20)
Zakah was also made obligatory by the statement of the Messenger ﷺ
بُنِيَ الإِسْلاَمُ عَلَى خَمْسٍ شَهَادَةِ أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ ، وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللهِ ، وَإِقَامِ الصَّلاَةِ ، وَإِيتَاءِ الزَّكَاةِ وَالْحَجِّ، وَصَوْمِ رَمَضَانَ

Islam was built upon five (pillars) : the testimony that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, the establishment of the prayer (Salah), paying the obligatory charity (Zakah), pilgrimage to the House (Hajj to the Ka’bah in Makkah ) and fasting (the month of) Ramadhan. (Al-Bukhari and Muslim)

Allah says His statement:

أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاسَ حَتَّى يَشْهَدُوا أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ ، وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللهِ وَيُقِيمُوا الصَّلاَةَ وَيُؤْتُوا الزَّكَاةَ فَإِذَا فَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ عَصَمُوا مِنِّي دِمَاءَهُمْ وَأَمْوَالَهُمْ إِلاَّ بِحَقِّ الإِسْلاَمِ وَحِسَابُهُمْ عَلَى اللهِ

I was commanded to fight the people until they testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, establish the prayer and pay the obligatory charity (Zakah) if they do that, then they have protected their blood and wealth for me, except according to the right of Islam, and their reckoning is with Allah.(Al-Bukhari and Muslims)

And his statement in advising Mu’adh when he sent him to Yemen:

إِنَّكَ تَأْتِى قَوْمًا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ. فَادْعُهُمْ إِلَى شَهَادَةِ أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَأَنِّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فَإِنْ هُمْ أَطَاعُوا لِذَلِكَ فَأَعْلِمْهُمْ أَنَّ اللَّهَ افْتَرَضَ عَلَيْهِمْ خَمْسَ صَلَوَاتٍ فِى كُلِّ يَوْمٍ وَلَيْلَةٍ فَإِنْ هُمْ أَطَاعُوا لِذَلِكَ فَأَعْلِمْهُمْ أَنَّ اللَّهَ افْتَرَضَ عَلَيْهِمْ صَدَقَةً تُؤْخَذُ مِنْ أَغْنِيَائِهِمْ فَتُرَدُّ فِى فُقَرَائِهِمْ فَإِنْ هُمْ أَطَاعُوا لِذَلِكَ فَإِيَّاكَ وَكَرَائِمَ أَمْوَالِهِمْ وَاتَّقِ دَعْوَةَ الْمَظْلُومِ فَإِنَّهُ لَيْسَ بَيْنَهَا وَبَيْنَ اللَّهِ حِجَابٌ

Verily you are going to a people who are people of the Scripture, so invite them to the testimony that there is none worthy of worship but Allah and I (Muhammad ﷺ) one the Messenger of Allah. If they obey you in that, inform then that Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, has obligated them to (pray) five prayers every day and night. If they obey you, then inform them that He has obligated them to

give charity from their wealth that is to be taken from their wealthy and given to their poor. If they obey you in that, then stay away form (taking) the best of their wealth. And beware of the supplication of the oppressed person, for verily there is no veil between it and Allah.(Al-Bukhari and Muslim)

Its Wisdom:

The following are some of the points derived form the wisdom of legislating Zakah:
  1. Purification of the human soul form the vices of stinginess, greed, covetousness and lustfulness.
  2. Comforting the poor and fulfilling the needs of the needy, distraught and deprived people.
  3. Establishing comprehensive benefits that the life of the Muslim community (Ummah) and its happiness depend upon.
  4. Limiting the inflation of wealth among the wealthy, and at the hands of the businessmen and merchants. This is so that the wealth will be restricted solely to one limited group of people, nor controlled by only the wealthy.

The ruling of One Who Refuses to pay Zakah:

Whoever refuses to pay Zakah, while denying its obligation, has disbelieved. Whoever refuses to pay Zakah due to stinginess, while affirming its obligation, has committed a sin. In this case Zakah is taken form such a person by force and he is also given some disciplinary punishment. If he fights in refusing to give, it, he is fought until he submits to the command of Allah and pays Zakah. This is due to Allah the Almighty’s statement :

فَاِنْ تَابُوْا وَ اَقَامُوا الصَّلٰوةَ وَ اٰتَوُا الزَّكٰوةَ فَاِخْوَانُكُمْ فِي الدِّيْنِ

So if they repent, establish the prayer and give Zakah then they are your brethren in religion. (9:11)

This is also due to the Prophet’s statement:

أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاسَ حَتَّى يَشْهَدُوا أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ ، وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللهِ وَيُقِيمُوا الصَّلاَةَ وَيُؤْتُوا الزَّكَاةَ فَإِذَا فَعَلُوا ذَلِكَ عَصَمُوا مِنِّي دِمَاءَهُمْ وَأَمْوَالَهُمْ إِلاَّ بِحَقِّ الإِسْلاَمِ وَحِسَابُهُمْ عَلَى اللهِ

I was commanded to fight the people until they testify that none has right to be worshipped but Allah and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, establish the prayer and pay Zaka, if they do this , then they have protected their blood and wealth from me, except by the right of Islam, and their reckoning is with Allah. (Al-Bukhari and Muslim)

Likewise, concerning fighting those who refused to pay Zakah, Abu Bakr As-Siddiq said:

“By Allah, if they refuse to give me (of Zakah) a young she goat that they used to give to Allah’s Messenger ﷺ .I will fight them for it.” (Al-Bukhari)

In this situation the Companion agreed with him (Abu Bakr) about this, so there was a consensus among them.
