“The wealth of a person does not decrease by paying Zakat.”

The eight categories of recipients are: the poor, who lack basic necessities; the needy, who are slightly better off but still require assistance; zakat administrators, who manage the collection and distribution of funds; those whose hearts are to be reconciled, including new converts to Islam or those needing encouragement in their faith, slaves and captives, to aid in their liberation
individuals burdened by debt incurred out of necessity; those engaged in activities for the sake of Allah, such as religious education or community service; and travelers in need, who are stranded or without resources to return home. These categories ensure that zakat fosters social equity and community well-being by addressing various aspects of financial and social vulnerability.
