Tungkol sa ebook na ito

Khums is an issue every practicing Shi'ah must deal with once a year. The need for an easy to understand, yet comprehensive guide has been felt for years. Especially now more than ever, with the financial complexities of our world today. This book hopes to fill that void, since its first publication in 1984. The most popular aspect of this book is the khums calculation form, which provides easy to use, step-by-step instructions on calculating your khums for the year.

This 4th edition includes numerous revisions and expansions, including: the history and usage of khums during the time of the Prophet and Imams, the moral and political aspects of khums, updated examples and rulings, practical and common issues for those living in the West, frequently raised questions, and much more. The book also reflects rulings based on various prominent maraji' in order to cater to as many muqallidin as possible.

Previous versions of this book have been well received, as well as prompting insightful feedback from communities around the globe.
