Zakat

The Quranic word “Zakat” not only carries the connotation of charity, almsgiving, official taxation, and voluntary contributions but also has a strong spiritual motive. The way the Holy Quran encourages the rich to give zakat is polite but firm. If they give to the poor when it is due, Allah will repay them many times over with blessings in this world and the next (57:11 and 73:23). This is why almsgiving is often described in the Quran as a transaction between temporary man, and Allah, who is eternal, Bountiful – the Creator of all things. The Quran says: “Who will give Allah a good loan so that he can multiply for him?” And Allah restrains and expands and you will return to Him. ”
Devoted Muslims give zakat as much as possible to avoid any hurt or insult to the recipient’s feelings. According to the guidance of the Quran, we must be careful to give the best that we have. Instead of giving zakat to hundreds of people, we can give it to a few people in the form of capital, taxi or rickshaw, etc. and make them self-reliant. It is hoped that in the future the poor who benefit from it will be able to give zakat themselves, if Allah wills.

The MASTUL Foundation organizes Zakat activities throughout the year. The MASTUL RDM Team works tirelessly to distribute Zakat from donors and sponsors to the less fortunate.
