Zakat is a pillar of Islam and one of its most important components. And next to prayers it is the most important religious duty enjoined on the Muslims. Muslims have agreed indisputably that zakat is obligatory. Whoever denies its obligatory nature after knowing this is outside the fold of Islam.

But of late this most important pillar of Islam has escaped the attention of the followers of Islam They have adopted ‘a take-it-easy-policy’ towards it, despite the fact that it is mentioned and linked with salat in a great number of places in Qur’an. Even Abu Bakr (R) fought those who differentiated between salat and zakat.

Taking this problem seriously, some Muslim organisations in Kerala gave special attention to this neglected area of sharia and appealed to the members of Muslim society to discharge their religious duties regarding zakat. Swimming against the tide, these organisations have set up special cells to collect and distribute zakat and fitr zakat in a systematic way. Taking the amount of zakat from the rich and giving to the poor, these cells have set a model for the Muslims of the State. 

As it is incumbent upon every Muslim to pay Zakat, we can fulfill it in this holy month.  Our Prophet Muhammad (SAW) has taught us to pay 2.5% of our wealth to the needy every year.  

Zakat is a means of protecting and purifying our wealth. Giving Zakat does not diminish one’s wealth, rather only enhances it.

Jamiatul Ulama-e-Hind Kerala has initiated a Zakat Cell to perform this obligation.  We will deliver your Zakat to the most deserving people under the supervision of renowned scholars in Kerala. 

We humbly remind you to send your Zakat amount to JUH Zakat account.
