Questions for research on Zakat

[kemsila]

[h=6]Hi there! I study cultural anthropology and I make a little research on Zakat. I would be very greatful if you wrote me how do you fulfill that Pillar and what's your private feeling/opinion on Zakat. Best Wishes.

Greeting Kemsila.

Since you do research about zakat I think you know who is muzzaki (those who obligated to pay zakat) and who is mustahiq (those who receive zakat).

I am a Muzakki, Alhamdulillah. And how I fulfill this obligation?.

Like other Muslims, I believe, everything that I have and get actually is belong to Allah, and consist of which I can consume, which is the right of mustahiq. I am just a 'manager'. So, I take which I allowed to take, and give what I must give to mustahiq.

I don't have private opinion about zakat, but I hope all Muslims realize, what they have and get are belong to Allah, and they are just a 'manager'.

Dear Ardianto, thank you very much for your reply! That simile about "managing" made it much easier to understand. Bless you!
