It is the third pillar of Islam after prayer, which is purification, cleanliness, growth and increase. Giving part of the money that a Muslim does not need to those who deserve it from the poor, the needy and others purifies it, grows it and blesses it – by His permission – and protects it from disappearing. Therefore, the Foundation, by the grace of God, plays a great and effective role by collecting zakat and alms from those who are generous and give good gifts, in order to deliver it to those who deserve it and those who are in need. There is no doubt that by giving zakat, the believer obtains a great reward and countless good from God Almighty, including: winning closeness to God’s mercy, God Almighty said {And My mercy encompasses all things. So I will prescribe it for those who fear God and give zakat.} Also, through it, Allah Almighty helps those who pay zakat and those who give charity from their money to obey and prepares for them the paths of repayment and guidance. Allah the Almighty said: {But as for him who gives and fears Allah * And believes in the best * We will ease him toward ease.} And through zakat, purification occurs from sins and morals that diminish the value of a Muslim. Allah the Almighty said: {Take from their wealth a charity that purifies them.}
