Zakat Calculators
October 20, 2006Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Ramadan is almost over and it is time to think about Zakat Al Fitr. For more information about Zakat Al Fitr go here:

I would also like to take this opportunity to remind you of Zakat al Mal. For more information on that, go here:

Also, I hope that the following xls sheet is helpful for Zakat Al Mal. Click POWER VIEW To view the xls sheet and edit it.
The xls sheet looks to me like zakat al mal rather than zakat al fitr. Not really sure.
Yes, I concur with br Marwan. The zakaat meantioned is Zakaat on your wealth and property. The Zakaat-ul-Fitr is set as $10.00 this year per person (Perth Mosque) and is specific to Ramadaan (hence the name Eid-ul-Fitr), whilst Zakaat-ul-Mal is not.
Since giving Zakaat in Ramadaan is more meritorious, it is probably best to do both in this month to increase the blessing.
Thanks brother Yunous for the prompt reply
