Key Points about Zakat-ul-Fitr
Zakat-ul-Fitr is the obligatory charity of breaking the fast, prescribed in the second year of Hijrah. It's paid for every Muslim (free person, slave, adult, child) in the form of a sa' (about 2.4–2.7 kg) of wheat, dates, barley, or other staple foods common in the area. The main wisdom behind it: it helps the Ramadan fast be accepted. It should be paid before the Eid prayer; it can be given at the beginning of Ramadan, but not before Ramadan starts. It's obligatory for those who have enough provisions for themselves and their dependents for the day and night of Eid. If paying in kind (grain) isn't possible (according to the school of Imam Abu Hanifa), it can be paid in cash-equal to the value of that same amount of wheat.
