ISLAMABAD, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 23rd Jun, 2017 ) : Scholars Friday Stressed the faithful to pay Sadqa-e-Fitr (Fitrana) to the deserving people before Eid- ul-Fitr so that those in need can also celebrate the festival.
The most deserving people for Sadqa-e-Fitr are close relatives followed by neighbours and the poor, said Maulana Abdul Razzaq Scholar while addressing Jumma-tul-wida in Al-Raza mosque G-7 Markaz.
Explaining Fitrana, he said it must be paid one or two days before Eid prayers so that the poor could enjoy the Eid celebrations with their other Muslim brethren. He said that it was not necessary to tell them that it is an amount of Fitrana, adding that head of a family should pay the Fitrana on behalf of all other family members.
The government has announced the minimum amount of Fitrana for the current year has been fixed at Rs 100 per person. APP/smd/anm
