Introduction – The term ‘’Fitrah’’ is an Arabic word that means ‘’Original Deposition’’ and is an obligated charity, which is distributed during the ending of fasting in the holy month of Ramzan before the Eid celebration. Fitrah is a compulsory charitable donation to poor or needy people who cannot purchase new clothes and sweets to celebrate Eid with their families. Muslims pay fitrah to purify or cleanse their fast (Roza) in the last Ashra of Ramzan which ensures that poor people can also purchase new clothes, Sawai, and many more things to celebrate Eid with their families. All Muslims must be paid Fitrah or Charity on their own behalf and on behalf of their dependents including children and wives.
