I don’t think this is specific to Sharia law, those rules on lending is for Islam in general. I think giving away 30% of your income to the poor every year is one of the five pillars of Islam as well.
- fakedang 6y ago1.) Islamic law is the same as Sharia law 2.) It's 2%, and in the past often collected as tax.
- insulanian 6y agoIt's 2.5%
- fakedang 6y agoYeah, my bad. But still nowhere near the 30% mentioned by the original comment.
- doesnotexist 6y agoThere is no set amount or percentage dictated by the Quran. Usually the customary amount is ~2.5% of capital assets earned in a year. And apparently somewhere around 20% on mining income, which obviously is only applicable to small number of people who own interests in mining operations.
