Studying the verdict of zakat’s payment to poor

Abstract

one of the financial obligations in Islam, which is legislated by the philosophy of poverty alleviation from society and is considered as one of the financial resources of the Islamic government, is Zakat. According to the text of the Qur'an, "poor" along with mentioning "poor" is one of those entitled to receive zakat, but differences in the meaning and nature of the poor and the poor, the criterion of poverty and wealth, and the amount of zakat paid to the poor are among the ambiguities that need to be explained. The research findings indicate that conceptually, the poor have a weaker financial situation than the poor, and the criterion for achieving poverty and wealth is custom; In addition, the payment of zakat in the amount of satisfying the normal needs and needs of the recipient of zakat is a suitable amount and criterion for the amount of zakat payment to the poor.
