Islamic Studies The Five Pillars of Islam – First Pillar: Shahadah (Kalimah Tayyibah)
What is the linguistic meaning of Zakah?
Explanation
Zakah linguistically means "purification" and "growth." It purifies the giver's wealth from greed and the soul from miserliness, while also blessing and growing the remaining wealth.

Hint
Think: giving Zakah "purifies" wealth and causes it to "grow" spiritually.
