To make effective use of zakat, ensure that it is distributed to individuals and communities in genuine need, such as the poor, orphans, and those facing financial hardship. Prioritize local causes or organizations that have a proven track record of impact and transparency. Additionally, consider supporting initiatives that empower recipients, such as education or vocational training programs, which can help break the cycle of poverty. Finally, regularly reassess the areas and groups you support to adapt to changing needs within the community.
The meaning of zakat is, buying the love of God. If you pay zakat you will get it seven times more than you paid.

Yes, Zakat can be paid in installments. This can be helpful if someone is not able to pay the full amount at once. However, it's best to make sure the full Zakat amount is paid within the same Islamic (lunar) year__ it becomes due. Paying in parts is allowed, but the full amount should be completed before the next Zakat year. This helps keep the Zakat obligation complete and on time. Some organizations, like Penny Appeal Canada, allow people to donate Zakat in monthly or custom amounts. According to their Zakat policy, 100% of the donation goes to people in need, with no money taken for administration. They also make sure the Zakat is given to those who are eligible, and they keep the funds in a separate bank account until it's used. Anyone who wants to give Zakat in installments or see which causes are eligible can visit their website: pennyappeal.ca/program/zakat/ If someone is unsure how to calculate their Zakat, it's a good idea to speak with a scholar or contact the organization for help.
