身體天課 Zakat al-Fitr

身體天課(麥子錢)

Zakat Al-Fitr (for the body)

意義：Zakat(紮喀特：天課)意指「淨化」，身體天課就是淨化我們的身體在齋月甚至過去一年所犯的罪過錯，同時也是為了使用這個身體所課的稅。

Meaning: Zakat means “purification.” Zakat Al-Fitr means purifying our body from sins and mistakes committed in Ramadan and the past year. It is also paid for using this body.

繳交時間：自齋月第一天起至開齋節會禮開始前。

Paying Time: From the first day of Ramadan until the prayer of Eid-Al-Fitr starts.

繳交金額：2.5公斤白米的價格，在台灣一般換算為新台幣200元整。

Amount: The price of 2.5kg rice. In Taiwan, it is around NTD200.

使用對象：1. 無工作能力且生活困頓者；2. 有工作能力但收入不足以養家活口者。

Targets: 1. One who is not able to work and has no source of supply for living; 2. One who has a job but his income is not enough to support the family.

繳交方式：優先選擇—— 以金錢直接給予符合資格的穆斯林(開齋節會禮前)；次要選擇——將金錢繳交給清真寺或伊斯蘭機構代為處理(最好最晚於開齋節會禮前三天，以方便作業人員統整金額並於期限內完成發放)。

Paying Method: Priority——Pay money directly to the qualified Muslim (before the prayer of Eid-Al-Fitr starts); Second choice——pay money to Mosque or Islamic organization for them to handle (better at least three days before Eid-Al-Fitr in order to give the people in charge enough time to arrange the money and distribute it on time).
