“The Messenger of Allah (SAW) prescribed the Zakat al-Fitr as a purification of the fasting person from empty and obscene talk and as food for the poor. If anyone pays it before the prayer (of Eid), it will be accepted as Zakat. If anyone pays it after the prayer, that will be a Sadaqah like other Sadaqahs”. [Abu Dawud]

Zakat al-fitr (also known as Fitrana) is a form of charity that must be paid at the end of Ramadan before the end of Eid prayers. This is a charitable donation of food that is due on every member of a household, including children and the elderly. We recommend £5 per person.
