2 – Zakaatul Fitr (also known as Fitra or Fitrana -in urdo)
This payable in preservable food only. One Ssaa’ă of (grain rice wheat etc, dates or raisins) per person in the family regardless of their age. The average cost of this is about £4 to £5 per person. If you want to give Saa’ă of dates then the cost of this rises to above £10.
3 – Zakaatul maal (financial Zakaht)
The most common is the 2.5% of saved income of gold/silver that has been saved in your position for a whole lunar year. For more details of this Zakat PLEASE refer to the fiqh books like “FIQHU SUNNAH” for imam Sayyed Sabiq
