attain empowerment
-
1 Paying the Zakah is a means to attain empowerment.
Allah said ( interpretation of the meaning ) :
{ [And they are] those who, if We give them authority in the land, establish prayer and give zakāh and enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong. And to Allāh belongs the outcome of [all] matters. }
Quran ( 22 : 41 )
