Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh...
Ramadhan Day 22: Don't forget to pay you zakat! Upon giving your money (or bag of rice), one should make sure that you're doing it for Allah and with most humbleness, not for show-off purposes.
Zakah (or zakat) is not purely about giving money or basic necessities (rice, dates) to the poor and needy, but it's also for purification purposes! It purifies the hearts from greedy and selfishness.
Zakah Eid-Fitri is obligatory and it needs to be paid before the end of Ramadhan. The purpose of the collection of Zakah Eid-Fitri before Eid is to help the needy and the poor for their Eid preparation. Helping one another; ain't that beautiful?
"My mercy encompasses all things, but I will specify it for the righteous who give Zakat" (7:156)
So to you righteous Muslims, I urge you to pay zakah before the end of Ramadhan. For Malaysians, you may find many many Zakah "counters" in mosques, shopping malls and even in bazaars!
Upon giving your money, one should make sure that you're doing it for Allah and with most humbleness, not for show-off purposes. Think about the happy needy people you're gonna help, and most importantly, think about the awesome rewards you're gonna get from Allah from your good deed!
For further information on zakah Eid-Fitri, please refer to respectable scholars, or you can just simply Google it. Most Islamic websites on the net are trustworthy, insyallah.
