Zakat: The Purifying Due
Zakat (زَكَاة) in the QuranBy Aira AuroraLength1h 21m
About this audiobook
Zakat — the purifying due — is the third pillar of Islam and the social obligation that binds the community of believers. The Quran presents zakat as both a spiritual act and an economic system: a spiritual act because it purifies the wealth and the soul of the giver, and an economic system because it redistributes wealth from the rich to the poor and prevents the concentration that destroys societies.
