United Against Poverty: Implications of Zakat - Yasir Qadhi | 29th September 2012

In this insightful lecture Shaykh Yasir Qadhi examines the wisdom of Zakat, its moral and theological foundations and its implications for 21st Century economic relations.

Allah mentions in the Qur'an that alms are for the poor and needy. What would the world look like today if almost two billion Muslims, especially the wealthiest members of our community took the institution of Zakat seriously.

United For Change is dedicated to facilitate the unity of Muslim organisations in North America and increasing the awareness for issues requiring the attention & action of the Muslim community.

Thousands of Muslims gathered together at the United against poverty conference to learn what our Lord has to say about our less fortunate brothers & sisters around the world and our responsibilities towards them.

Conference held on 29th September 2012 in Stamford, CT.
