==Zakah==
The [[Zakat (Tax)|zakah]] is a tax that Muslims should pay in Islam. The Arabic word زكاة (''zakah'') ends on the letter ة (''ta marbuta''), that means the "t" at the end is pronounced when reading the word in a context of an Arabic text, but it is not read when reading the word alone. So when using this Arabic word in English, it is sometimes transliterated as ''zakah'' and sometimes ''zakat'', due to the letter ''ta marbuta'' at the end.
