Giving Zakat distributes wealth among all the citizens of society. In true spirit it is given to poor people for their living and for them to start some sort of activity through which they can earn their living. In essence it helps bring equality in the society which helps in lesser number of crimes. During the era of Hazrat Umer (R.A), Zakat was properly distributed and a time came that there was no one to accept zakat.
