478. The Zakat Today Grossly Underplays the Qur'anic Emphasis on Zakat and Wealth Sharing November 21, 2011 That the ‘Zakat is a pillar of faith’ is an uncontestable proposition for all Muslims. However, the question that needs answering is does the traditional model of Zakat, in today’s context, fully meet the Qur’anic tenets on Zakat or its emphasis on spending for community. The Qur’an is the ultimate source and verifier of all Islamic laws, customs, practices and traditions, and therefore it is possible to scrutinize any proposition on the back of the Qur’an. Hence we probe the Noble Book for an answer. Broadly speaking the Qur’an offers two shades of meaning for this term. i) The trad... (read more) Author: ankur choudhary
