English Translation of Al-Quran
[24].Surah An-Nur [The Light]
Ayat 51. The only saying of the faithful believers, when they are called to Allah (His Words, the Qur'an) and His Messenger ( SAWW(PBUH), to judge between them, is that they say: "We hear and we obey." And such are the prosperous ones (who will live forever in Paradise).
[Tafseer] of Ayat 51. The answer of the Believers, when summoned to Allah and His Messenger, in order that He may judge between them, is no other than this: they say, "We hear and we obey": it is such as these that will attain felicity. Contrast with it the attitude of the Unbelievers or Hypocrites, who say aloud, "we hear", but intend in their hearts to disobey. True happiness, whether here or in the Hereafter, is not to be attained by fraud or duplicity: it is the privilege of those who listen attentively to good counsel and carry it out in their lives.
English Translation of Hadith
Hazrat Ibn Umar (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH)enjoined the payment of one Sa' of dates or one Sa' of barley as Zakat-ul-Fitr on every Muslim slave or free, male or female, young or old, and he ordered that it be paid before the people went out to offer the Eid prayer. (One Sa' = 3 Kilograms approx.)
[Al-Bukhari Volume 2, Book 25, Number 579]
Every Muslim is required to pay Zakat-ul-Fitr at the conclusion of the month of Ramadan as a token of thankfulness to Allah (SWT) for having enabled him to observe fasts. Its purpose is to purify those who fast from any indecent act or speech and to help the poor and needy. In addition, it provides for the needs of the poor and the indigent and relieves them from having to ask others for charity on the day of `Eid. The Prophet, [SAWW](PBUH) said, “Fulfill their need on this day (i.e., the day of `Eid).
