Abstract

In this chapter looks into the intricacies of Islamic charitable practices, namely Sadaqah, Zakat, and Qard Hassan. Providing a nuanced overview, the chapter explores the historical and conceptual dimensions of each form of charity, emphasizing their unique roles within the Islamic social finance framework. Drawing distinctions between Sadaqah, Zakat, and Qard Hassan, the chapter navigates through the legal frameworks governing these practices, shedding light on the Shariah injunctions that guide their implementation. Rich with case studies, the chapter illustrates the real-world applications of these charitable concepts, offering insights into their impact on communities. Additionally, the chapter critically examines the issues and challenges that may arise in the context of Sadaqah, Zakat, and Qard Hassan, contributing to a holistic understanding of these essential elements of Islamic social finance.
