Zakat

20 Jun

If you trust them and they will buy food with it and distribute it before Eid prayer, you can give them money. Kindly refer to the following link(s): https://www.assimalhakeem.net/our-zakat-fitri-can-be-a-money-or-we-should-provide-food/

I have seen some people who pray only nafl salah sitting is it permissible.( they don’t have any health concern)

This is permissible, but the reward is half of that standing up.

How to calculate zakat on 22 karat gold ?

Zakat

20 Jun

Multiply the weight in 22 and divide it by 24. If the result is 85 grams or more, give 2.5% of it as zakat.

I have given five hunderd thausand (500000)doller on loan to four(4) deffrint people i have been giving zakat for the last four years and still i am not sure when they are going return me the money or even i am not sure if they are going to give me all my money so now should i wait till i get money and then give ZAKAT or should i keep giving ZAKAT.

If you ask them for the money every year and insist on getting it back and they apologize that they don’t have or refuse to give it back, there is no zakat on it until you receive it! But if you are shy to ask, then you must pay zakat every single year.

Today i came to a place where i disnot know which side was qibla and i wanted to pray. So instead of missing the prayer in doubt of qibla direction i just spread the prayer mat n prayed. Will my prayer be accepted or should i go home and pray again?

Prayer

This is not permissible. Praying to the qibla is a condition of prayer. You must try your level best either by looking at the position of the sun to find out the directions or to check a compass or your mobile or ask the locals or check the masjid.
