Obligatory Charity Tax (Zakat)
" أَسْلَمْتَ عَلَى مَا سَلَفَ مِنْ خَيْرٍ "
I said to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), "Before embracing Islam I used to do good deeds like giving in charity, slave-manumitting, and the keeping of good relations with Kith and kin. Shall I be rewarded for those deeds?" The Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "You became Muslim with all those good deeds (Without losing their reward)."
