What is the wisdom of the obligation of Zakat on your Business?

Zakat is a means of purification and blessing. Allah ﷻ says: "Take alms from their wealth to purify and cleanse them..." (Surah al-Tawbah 9:103) It cleanses both the soul and the wealth, removing greed and elevating the giver spiritually. The Prophet ﷺ said: "Charity does not decrease wealth." (Muslim) Rather, it brings barakah and increases provision. Giving Zakat connects us to Allah, supports the needy, and purifies our hearts and possessions.
