it is called zakat. refer to question below.

Answer:

There are two forms of almsgiving. One is the yearly, obligatory Zakat. The other is simply called Sadaqah (voluntary charity).

Let me address Sadaqah. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said that chairty (sadaqah) is due every day for every single bone in one's body. Does that mean that we have to be spending money every day, right and left? No. Muhammad explained: To smile in someone's face, is charity. To lift a portion of food to the mouth of one's spouse, is a charity.

Every good deed done to another - is charity in the eyes of God.

So be generaous with yourself. Give to others. Whether you know them or not. Your charity - as long as you believe in the One God - will be a great blessing, and a heavy weight of good in your favor on the Day of Judgment.
