Abstract:

The aim of my research was to show the impact of famine on the Sharia rulings – its impact on the provisions of worship (prayer and zakat) – and to relieve people and lift the hardship and distress from them, so the aim of my research was to introduce famine in language and terminology and to indicate its causes, vocabulary related to it, and to indicate its impact on prayer and zakat, mentioning the disagreement in matters, mentioning their evidence in them and weighting statements over each other.

Keywords: famine – causes – disease – prayer – zakat.
