    What is Zakat ul-Fitr?

    Zakat Ul Fitr is an obligatory form of charity that every Muslim must give before Eid al-Fitr prayer. It serves two sacred purposes:

    Purifies the fasting person from any indecent speech or actions during Ramadan.

    Food for the Needy

    Provides food for the poor so they can celebrate Eid with joy and dignity.

    "The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) ordained Zakat al-Fitr to purify the fasting person from indecent words or actions, and to provide food for the needy."

    — Abu Dawud and Ibn Majah
