What is the meaning of Zakat / Zakat Rules on Tax in the UK /Zakat Percentage 2.50%

Zakat is the compulsory giving of a set proportion of one's wealth ...

What is the meaning of Zakat?

One of the Five Pillars of Islam, Zakat is a fundamental part of being a Muslim. Meaning purification, Zakat is the act of giving a set percentage of your total wealth to charity each lunar year and is required of every sane, adult Muslim whose accumulated wealth exceeds the current Zakat nisab value.
Zakat is so much more than just giving to those in need; paying Zakat is an act of worship. At Muslim Aid, we understand this wholeheartedly, which is why we strive to ensure that your Zakat payment reaches the most vulnerable and needy communities in the world, quickly and effectively.
Considering all the different items and details that must be kept in mind when calculating Zakat, understanding the Zakat nisab value, when to pay Zakat and who we can give it to, the whole process can be complicated. We are here to help, though; we have put together a brief guide around how to calculate Zakat, including the correct Zakat percentage of your wealth to be paid, and whether any Zakat tax is applicable in the UK.

What is Nisab?

Firstly - what is the nisab threshold? The Zakat nisab value is the minimum threshold required for an individual to be eligible to pay Zakat in that specific lunar year. Your total overall wealth must meet or exceed the nisab value in order for you to be eligible to pay Zakat.
What is the Nisab value? The most up to date nisab for gold and silver can be found at the top of the page.
The nisab value is directly related to the current values of gold and silver. In the Holy Qu'ran, the nisab value is described as 612.36g of silver or 87.48g of gold. Originally, these values of silver and gold were equal but in the current day, they have become different, with the silver nisab being significantly lower than its gold counterpart.
You can calculate the nisab value at any given time by converting these weights into your local currency.

What is the Zakat Percentage?

Your Zakat donation should amount to 2.5% of your total wealth accumulated over the year. As an example, if your total assets (after any debts owed) amounted to £10,000, then you would be required to pay £250 as Zakat.
What is Zakat Due On?
When calculating your total wealth and assets, you must consider the following:
  • The value of gold and silver items owned
  • Money in your bank accounts or in cash at home
  • Loans that you have given out
  • Pensions, stocks, shares and investments
  • Property owned as an investment (excluding the property you live in)
  • Farm and agricultural produce
You can use our Zakat calculator for gold, silver, cash and on other assets to determine your overall wealth, and subsequently work out how much Zakat you need to pay. Please note that any debts you currently have outstanding, including any form of loan, are ineligible for Zakat so they must be deducted from the overall total.
Zakat Rules on Tax in the UK
In the UK, tax can impact Zakat in a variety of different ways but there are Zakat rules to help guide you should you have any queries.
For most, personal taxes like road and income tax are not exempt from Zakat. The only exception to this is when the taxes being paid are overdue, in which case they become a debt which is deductible, though this is a rare situation.
For some, especially business owners, filling in UK tax returns is an important part of being self-employed. In this situation, many individuals will keep money in their bank specifically for when they fill in their tax returns. This figure being saved for tax is deductible from the Zakat total.

Paying your Zakat

Hopefully, you will now know exactly how much Zakat to pay, and you are ready to make your payment. As an obligatory act of worship, your payment should go towards helping Zakat-eligible individuals, as decreed by the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
When to pay Zakat? Zakat is typically based on a full lunar year, and as such, most Muslims pay this towards the end of the year. While this can be paid at any time, many choose to pay Zakat during Ramadan.
Who can we give Zakat to? Zakat payments are divided between those most in need, as determined by the Holy Qu'ran:
  1. The poor
  2. The needy
  3. Travellers in need
  4. Those in debt
  5. Those being held against their will or in slavery
  6. New Muslims and friends of the Islamic community
  7. Those in the cause of Allah
  8. Administrators of Zakat
Muslim Aid is an international organisation with almost 35 years of experience assisting some of the most vulnerable people in the world. The majority of our campaigns and appeals are Zakat-eligible, meaning that your donation has the power to really make a difference when you partner with us.

#followme. #likeforlike. #like4like. #follow4follow. #followforfollow. #f4f. , #foryoupage
The 5 Pillars of Islam (Submission to Allah)Shahadah Salat Zakat Sawm Hajj

The 5 Pillars of Islam

(Submission to Allah)
The Five Pillars consist of:

  • Shahadah: sincerely reciting the Muslim profession of faith
  • Salat: performing ritual prayers in the proper way five times each day
  • Zakat: paying an alms (or charity) tax to benefit the poor and the needy
  • Sawm: fasting during the month of Ramadan
  • Hajj: pilgrimage to Mecca

The Grand Mufti of Dubai has declared that this year Zakat can be ...

La ilaaha illa-llaah Muhammadur-Rasool ullah 


“There is no true God but Allah Subhanahu wa ta’ala (High and Exalted is He) and Mohammad Salal-layhu alayhi wasalam (Peace be upon him), is His last Messenger”. 


Salaat (Prayer) 
Method of Offering Salah – Online Quran Academy
 
Perform the 5 mandatory prayers a day (Al-Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Mughrib & Isha). Allah does not need one's prayer because He is free of all needs. Prayer is for our immeasurable benefit, and the blessings are beyond all imagination. 

Zakaat (Purification) 
Zakat is the compulsory giving of a set proportion of one's wealth ...

Obligatory giving to the poor. A very important  pillar of Islam, it draws Allah’s blessings and strengthens the relationship between the rich and the poor. 

Sawm (Fasting)

Fasting Traditions Across Religion | Forbes India
Fast in the month of Ramadhan. Fasting is abstaining from eating, drinking, intimate male / female contact and smoking from sunrise till sunset in this Holy Month. 

Hajj (Pilgrimage) 
Fulfilling a pilgrimage to Hajj | Daily Sabah

One should perform this once in your lifetime. Muslims from all over the globeassemble in Mecca before the Ka’bah in response to the call of Allah (S.W.T.).

Fundamental Articles of Imaan (‘Faith’)










A true Muslim Believes in.. 

One God - Allah (Subhanahu wa ta’ala), Supreme and Eternal, Infinite and AllMighty, Merciful and Compassionate, Creator and Provider. 

Allah’s Angels - purely spiritual and splendid beings ordered by Allah. 

Allah’s Revealed Books - a Muslim believes in all scriptures and revelations of God, as they were complete and in their original forms. 

His Messengers - all Messengers were mortals, human beings, endowed with Divine revelations and appointed by God to teach mankind. 

The Last Day of Resurrection - everything we do, say, make, intend and think are accounted for and kept in perfect records, they are brought up on this Day. 

Al-Qadr  - Allah has ordained everything. One must not believe that anything but Allah controls the present or future (luck charms, horoscopes,one’s own actions). 

The Pillar of Salaat
 
The Second Pillar of Islam 

Prophet Mohammad (Peace be upon him) said “Pray as you have seen me praying” 

The conditions of Salaat Acceptance of Islamic Faith - The one who believes in Allah is required to perform Salaat. 

Niyyat - Intention in one’s heart to perform a particular prayer. 

Cleanliness - This includes cleanliness of the worn clothes, the place of prayer and the body. 

Purification - Performing Wudhu (ablution) before undertaking Salaat. 

Concealing the body - A man’s body must be covered between the navel and the knees and also the shoulders. Women must be clothed fully with opaque covering, revealing no shape of figure or hair at all. ™

Facing the Qiblah - One must face the sacred Mosque of Makkah to pray. If the direction is  unknown, it can be guessed and the prayer will be accepted, insh’Allah (“if Allah wills it so”). 

Observed times of performing Salaat - Prayers are to be observed at the prescribed times. 
Neglected Prayers - Salaat that is forgotten must be done even when late (“Kadaah”), the longer one leaves it the more the reward of the prayer diminishes. 

Invalidation of Salaat (that requires repeating the entire prayer) 
™
Talking deliberately, or to do any acts outside the movements of prayer. ™

Laughing, eating & drinking (residual food in the mouth). ™

To significantly shift direction from the Ka’bah during the prayer.
