Is it permissible to fulfil Zakat using a credit card?


Updated by MUIS

Yes. According to a fatwa issued, Zakat may be paid using a credit card, provided two conditions are met:

  1. The Zakat amount must exist in your savings.

  2. Payment to the bank must be made in full immediately after or before the Zakat transaction takes place.

These conditions ensure that the payment does not end up becoming a debt, and that no interest is incurred—ensuring that it remains Syariah-compliant.
