List of Top 3 Zakat Accepting Organizations in UK

Islam is a religion that has urged the Muslims to give compulsory alms, in order to seek the mercy of Allah and to uplift humanity. Every Individual in Islam has to seek completeness individually on his own, and without giving Zakat one cannot wish to be called a complete and righteous Muslim.

True narratives can teach humans a lot about life, about us and about the state of others. Thus, many beautiful and thought-provoking incidents have been narrated in the Hadith, to teach humans about the spiritual significance of having deep faith in the Almighty, offering daily prayers and giving charities.

“True piety is this: to believe in God, and the Last Day, the Angels, the Book, and the Prophets, to give off one’s substance, however, cherished, to kinsmen, and orphans, the needy, the traveler, beggars, and to ransom the slave, to perform the prayer, to pay the Zakat.” -Surah Baqarah, Ayah 177 (Qur’an 2:177).

Zakat or alms giving has been made compulsory in Islam to invoke the love of Allah, truthfulness and humanity within the hearts of Muslims. Zakat is a mandatory giving to the poor and no righteous Muslim can deny it. 

Islam is a religion of peace, thus, it has emphasized the Muslims to value human life and its dignity and to uphold justice in every sector of our society. Zakat is a spiritual giving that has been imposed only upon the wealthy Muslims to establish social justice in our world.

Zakat is a spiritual giving that cleans our heart by removing our greed for materialistic possessions. Giving Zakat is the best way to purify the giver’s spirit from all evil vices.

Quran has mentioned the psychological, ethical and social importance of giving Zakat on a regular basis. Giving Zakat surely cleanses the bad habits and misery from the society, and encourages the practice of philanthropy and generosity among us.

Islam is a religion that preaches peace, love and compassion. Islam has commanded the Muslims to give Zakat, so that they can express their deep feelings of kindness and generosity through concrete actions, by helping the poor and needy.

“By no means shall you attain righteousness unless you give (freely) of that which you love; and whatever you give, of a truth Allah knoweth it well.”-The Holy Quran, (Chapter 3, verse 92)

Humans are dictated by wealth, money or power, but these materialistic things will only help them to live a smooth life in this world. None of us would be able to take it with us in the grave, neither it will be of any use in the Akhirah.
