Muslims give alms, known as "zakat," as an essential obligation of their faith, which promotes social welfare and economic equity. The practice is rooted in the Quran and the teachings of Prophet Muhammad, emphasizing compassion and support for those in need. By redistributing wealth, zakat helps alleviate poverty and fosters a sense of community among Muslims. Additionally, it serves as a means of spiritual purification for the giver, reinforcing their connection to God.

Zakat, or alms, is one of the Pillar of the Faith. It requires an annual donation of a fortieth part of one's wealth. That's of all the person's wealth, not just of that year's income.
No. Giving alms, helping the poor and needy, being kind and helpful to others are the qualities preached by all religions and found in human nature. The Muslims are commanded by Almighty God to give alms frequently. However, they are bound to give at least 2.5% on the annual saving.

One should give alms as much as and as often as he is capable. One must balance his income and alms in such a way that he does not deprive himself or his family of necessities. Alms can consist of Time, Money, and Talent; so one is free to choose which he shall give - something that works in accord with his fiscal responsibilities.
Being charitable to the poor and the needy is one of the most important teachings of islam. Charity may be done anytime, anywhere. However, the Muslims do charitable deeds especially during the month of Ramazan. On or before Eid, special amount is given to the poor which is known as Fitrana.
Islamic law is actually secular - Islam does not have a clergy or institution like you'll find in Christianity and Judaism. This means Islamic jurisprudence deals with Muslims as it does people of other faiths. But there are certain distinct privileges within the faith which are reserved for Muslims. Things like Zakat (alms to the poor) but they can be spread to include non-Muslims as "sadaqa" (alms to the poor in general). Its not the religion or laws that affected Muslims attitudes towards other faiths, but the various cultures and politics of Muslims around the world.
