Hangout GupShup Cafe

got this email from my college msa, thought it would be of help and a reminder to the us guppies

— fwd —

Assalaamu alaykum all!

A quick reminder about Zakat-ul-Fitr, the obligatory charity required of every individual at the end of Ramadan. It amounts to $7.00 / individual and needs to be deposited before the Eid prayer. Additional information on the topic can be found at:

http://63.175.194.25/topics/zakaatfitr/zakaat_al-fitr.shtml

Jazaakumullaahu khayrun,

wassalaamu alaykum,

P.S- Please note that Zakat-ul-Fitr is different from Zakat-ul-Maal (the zakah on money/possessions) which is 2.5% of one’s savings/untouched belongings for the year. Zakat-ul-Fitr is obligatory upon everyone including new-born children; of course, if the individual does not earn, his/her guardian is responsible for paying it. For more info, please read the article mentioned above.

Paying fitrana is a good practice but let's not call it farz. I believe it is wajib.

jo bhi hai u name it farz r wajib:D but must pay it

I beg to disagree. Deciding what’s ‘farz’ is Allah :swt: domain not humans’. Trying to speak on behalf of the Almighty can be considered shirk, no?

NY ki ghareeb qom :stuck_out_tongue:

FUNGUY baji - wajib aur farz mein differrence hae koi bhala?? :hoonh: wajib means NECESSARY and so does FARZ and paying fitrana IS obligatory which means necessary which means its farz = wajib

khair if u wana change the title of the thread to WAJIB from FARZ go ahead, lekin i think more ppl understand the meaning of FARZ than WAJIB

irem khala, if you think there is no difference between wajib and farz then there is no need for further discussion on this topic.

very well pointed out FG....

let us not confuse WAJID with FARDH....

fitrana is WAJIB....
and so is the EID PRAYER....

11

whats the diff. between wajib and farz?

12

One is obligatory and the other is mandatory; I don’t know which one is which.

Ya Ali Madad or A Shirk - Ask Allah (SWT) directly or it equates to shirk (merged)

14

Wajib highly recommended and farz is a must, no ifs and buts??

Madhanee farz would be mandatory and wajib obligatory I think :confused: Its the same thing obligatory and mandatory, No?

15

You can give it to the masjid and they'll pass it on to the needy.
