Zakat is a form of alms-giving or tax payment made annually under Islamic law on certain kinds of property and used for charitable and religious purposes. It is one of the Five Pillars of Islam and is a religious obligation for all Muslims who meet the necessary criteria of wealth as it is seen as the right of the poor to find relief from the rich.
