Khums in Dhul Hijjah: Purifying wealth at a sacred time

Dhul Hijjah is more than a sacred month – it’s a chance to reconnect with Allah (swt), purify your heart, and give back in a meaningful way.  

For Muslims, paying Khums during these blessed days is one of the most rewarding acts of worship. It’s not just about money. It’s about faith, gratitude, and using our blessings to help others. 

Allah (swt) says in the Qur’an: 

“And whatever thing you gain, indeed for Allah is one fifth of it…” 

Surah Al-Anfal, Ayah 41

As we reflect on sacrifice and devotion during Dhul Hijjah, this is the perfect time to fulfill your Khums obligation through The Zahra Trust.
