Zakat worship enables to eliminate lots of social and economic problems thanks to its strong nature of obligatory conditions and working mechanisms that arising from Qur’an and the Sunnah that are the primary resources of Islam. Income inequality and poverty are ones of the major problems for households that seek for having better living conditions. In this paper, we classified the people according to their income level and analyzed the households that live below the poverty line to get evidence whether zakat effectively eliminate issues mentioned or not. Finally, results of investigation demonstrates that if muslim people of Turkey canalize their savings completely to zakat provides a significant role to remove poverty and have adequate economic standard of living.
