Zakat al-Fitr or Zakat al-Fitrah is $15 per person for 1447/2026. It is a form of charitable giving (almsgiving) that Islam requires of every able Muslim at the end of Ramadan. It consists of giving staple food to enable poor people to celebrate Eid al-Fitr, the festival marking the end of the Ramadan fast. The obligation begins at sunset on the last day of Ramadan and continues until the start of Eid prayer on the following morning, though it may be paid earlier. Some of the Sahabah (companions of Muhammad) paid it several days before Eid al-Fitr. The required amount is the same for everyone regardless of income: one sa` (four double handfuls) of food, grain, or dried fruit per family member, or the equivalent monetary value.
