Imams yesterday expressed their concern over the poor knowledge the Muslim community in the country has for zakat (tithe) and reminded Muslims of their Islamic obligation by paying the zakat harta once they meet the requirements.
It is clear that the knowledge of the muslim community about the zakat laws is still relatively low, said the imams.
Many still do not know the type of properties and wealth which are liable to zakat and also lack the knowledge about nisab, haul and the calculation method of zakat payments.
