Early Zakat brings timely relief –
helping families prepare for Ramadan with dignity and hope!

Zakat is not only an obligation in Islam—it is a lifeline for families in need. While many people choose to pay Zakat during Ramadan, giving early Zakat can make a powerful difference in the lives of deserving families before the blessed month begins.

At Kokni Muslim Welfare Association (KoMWA), we have seen firsthand how timely Zakat helps families prepare for Ramadan with dignity, peace, and hope.

Zakat Is the Right of the Needy

Allah ﷻ has clearly commanded the believers to give Zakat and has defined its purpose:

“And establish prayer and give Zakat…”
(Qur’an 2:110)

Zakat is not a favour—it is the right of the poor upon the wealth of those who are able. When Zakat is delayed, families who depend on it often struggle silently during the most important time of the year.

Why Giving Zakat Early Makes a Difference

1. Helps Families Prepare for Ramadan

For many widows, elderly individuals, and underprivileged families, Ramadan brings added expenses—food, utilities, and daily necessities. Early Zakat allows them to:

  • Arrange groceries in advance

  • Manage household expenses

  • Enter Ramadan without anxiety

2. Prevents Last-Minute Hardship

When Zakat is delayed until the last days of Ramadan, families may already be facing financial stress. Early distribution ensures:

  • Immediate relief

  • Reduced dependence on borrowing

  • Stability before fasting begins

3. Allows Better Planning and Fair Distribution

Early Zakat helps KoMWA:

  • Identify genuine and eligible recipients

  • Distribute funds responsibly and fairly

  • Ensure Shariah compliance without urgency or pressure

This leads to more dignified and effective assistance.

How KoMWA Uses Early Zakat

KoMWA distributes Zakat during the last week of Shabaan and the first week of Ramadan, ensuring help reaches families when it is most needed.

Your Zakat supports:

  • Widows and women-led households

  • Elderly individuals without support

  • Deserving students facing financial hardship

  • Families dealing with medical emergencies

All Zakat funds are:

  • Kept strictly separate from other donations

  • Used only for Shariah-eligible recipients

  • Treated as an Amanah (trust)

“Take from their wealth charity by which you purify them.”
(Qur’an 9:103)

Early Zakat Brings Greater Peace of Mind

By paying Zakat early, donors:

  • Fulfil their obligation with clarity

  • Avoid last-minute calculations

  • Experience peace and preparedness for Ramadan

The Prophet ﷺ said:

“Charity does not decrease wealth.”
(Sahih Muslim)

Give Early. Help On Time.

Your early Zakat can:

  • Put food on a family’s table

  • Help a student continue education

  • Support medical needs

  • Restore dignity before Ramadan begins

At KoMWA, early Zakat ensures no family is left waiting during the blessed month.

A Reminder from the Sunnah

“Whoever relieves a believer’s distress, Allah will relieve his distress on the Day of Judgment.”
(Sahih Muslim)

Fulfil Your Zakat with Responsibility and Care

Giving Zakat early is an act of foresight, compassion, and faith.
It brings relief before hardship deepens—and blessings that last beyond Ramadan.
