The whole concept of wealth is considered in Islam as a gift from Allah. Allah, who provided wealth to the person, made a portion of it for the poor. So, the poor have a right over one’s wealth. Zakah reminds Muslims that everything they have belongs to their Lord. People are given their wealth as a trust from Him, and Zakah is intended to free Muslims from the love of money.
