In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that Tanzeem-e-Islami does not ask for public donations but is supported by members who give part of their income voluntarily. This giving is a personal choice, unlike the required Zakat. He says that Islam has both mandatory practices, like fasting, and optional acts, like extra prayers. He also points out that, along with the five pillars, the Prophet (PBUH) taught other practices that are important for a complete understanding of Islam but are often overlooked.
