The Maldives Zakat House announced that MVR 5,500 per person has been distributed this year as Zakat al-Mal, deposited for 2,384 people registered as poor and needy, totalling over MVR 13.1 million. This is the highest per capita amount distributed so far, up from MVR 5,000 last year, while Zakat al-Mal collections reached MVR 107 million by the end of last year, a five percent increase over 2024's MVR 102 million.
