*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -*
-
Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-

Zakat: pay extra or the exact amount?
Zakat on rented out home
Question:
I live and work in Saudi Arabia. My home in England is rented out and
I receive rent from it on a monthly basis. My understanding is that
Zakat is due on the rent that I receive not on the value of the
property itself. Is this correct?
Answer:
Wa Alaykum Assalam wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuhu,
Yes, your understanding is correct: zakat is due on your rent
(accounted with the rest of your zakatable wealth), not on the value
of the property itself.

Ruling on one who catches up with the tashahhud with the imam in Eid prayer or prayers for rain
What is the ruling on one who catches up with the tashahhud with the
worshippers in Eid prayer or prayers for rain? Does he have to pray
two rak'ahs as the imam did or what should he do?.
Praise be to Allaah.
If a person catches up with the tashahhud only with the imam in Eid
prayer or prayer for rain, he should pray two rak'ahs after the imam
says the salaam, doing in them as the imam did of takbeer, recitation,
bowing and prostrating.
And Allah is the source of strength. May Allah send blessings and
peace upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and Companions. End
