Fitra

Fitra is an Arabic word that means the responsibility of providing basic needs for one's children, family, and relatives. It is an important part of Islamic teaching, which encourages people to provide for their families and those in need. To show this responsibility, it is required to donate a certain amount of money or goods to those in need. This amount is usually dependent on the individual’s financial ability.
