Yes, you are still required to give zakat even if you have outstanding credit or debt. Zakat is calculated based on your total wealth, including savings and assets, minus any debts you owe. It is typically calculated at a rate of 2.5% of your eligible assets, and fulfilling this obligation is considered a key aspect of Islamic financial responsibility. However, if your debts exceed your assets, you may not be required to pay zakat.

Yes, a woman can give zakat to her own husband if he qualifies as a recipient based on the criteria set in Islamic law.

What can you get zakat for yourself?

Zakat is meant for specific eligible groups, as outlined in the Qur’an (Surah At-Tawbah 9:60). If you are struggling financially and meet the criteria—such as having little to no income or being in debt—you may be eligible to receive Zakat. However, you cannot give Zakat to yourself from your own wealth. Zakat must be given to someone else who qualifies. If you are in need, organizations like Penny Appeal USA can help ensure Zakat donations reach people just like you—with dignity and care. Donate Now: pennyappealusa.org/campaigns/zakat-2/
