One way of correctly using His<br />

wealth is by giving Zakah.<br />

The Arabic word Zakah means:<br />

purity and increase.<br />

Zakah purifies the wealth of<br />

Muslims and increases the blessings<br />

of Allah.<br />

It removes whatever evil wealth<br />

may bring like pride, greed or selfishness.<br />

So Zakah cleanses the heart of the<br />

person giving it of pride, greed and<br />

selfishness.<br />

It also purifies the heart of the one<br />

recieving it from envy, jealous and<br />

hatred.<br />

Zakah creates love, respect and<br />

well wishing between the rich and<br />

poor.<br />

It cultivates a feeling of concern for<br />

others and responsiblity toward the<br />

community.<br />

By giving Zakah we help those who<br />

are unable to help themselves like<br />
