Financial Plan
Part 2 — Key Concepts (fill in the blanks)
Zakat is           for eligible Muslims. The rate is     % of qualifying wealth, paid once a year.
Sadaqah is             charity — any act of generosity, any amount, at any time.
Waqf is a                  endowment — assets donated permanently for community benefit that can never be sold.
Barakah means divine          . Giving with the right intention is believed to              your wealth over time.
Part 3 — Zakat Math

Zakat rate = 2.5% = multiply savings by 0.025

Formula: Savings × 0.025 = Zakat amount

Calculate the Zakat for each amount:

Savings Amount Calculation Zakat Owed
$200$200 × 0.025 =
$600$600 × 0.025 =
$1,000$1,000 × 0.025 =

Think about it: If every Muslim household with savings paid Zakat, what impact could that have on poverty?
