    Our Zakat Policy

    Droplets of Mercy Zakat policy has been reviewed and approved by Shaikh Navaid Aziz. This policy is designed to be as encompassing and accommodating as possible from an Islamic legal perspective.

    Zakat-eligible beneficiaries are classified into eight categories as per the Quranic injunction: the poor, the destitute, Zakat workers, those whose hearts are being reconciled, those in captivity, debtors, those in the path of Allah, and the traveller.

    Our approach to Islamic law lies within the framework of the four schools of jurisprudence. At the heart of this policy is Ijma' (consensus of scholars).

    The Eight Categories of Zakat

    • 1
      The Poor (al-Fuqarā)
    • 2
      The Destitute (al-Masākīn)
    • 3
      Zakat Workers (al-Amilīna Alayhā)
    • 4
      Those Whose Hearts are Being Reconciled
    • 5
      Emancipation of Slaves (Fi al-Riqāb)
    • 6
      Those in Debt (al-Ghārimīn)
