The aim of Zakat is not achieved simply when we pay Zakat. The aim
can only be achieved optimally when we distribute Zakat in an effective
way.
How can we distribute Zakat most effectively?
• Pool our Zakat - we co-ordinate where it is given based on an understanding of our individual and
collective challenges and opportunities.
• Focus our Zakat locally - we distribute Zakat in the society where we know the needs and culture
best, and for which we are most accountable to God.
• Balance our Zakat - we use Zakat to support and empower people in poverty and for community
development, meeting needs based on the eight categories in the Qur’an (9:60).
