Khoms

Distribution of Khoms

The distribution of Khoms is equally significant. Traditionally, it is divided into two categories: half is allocated to Sayyid (descendants of the Prophet), while the other half is designated for the Imam or religious leadership. This bifurcation of funds serves distinct purposes. The portion dedicated to Sayyids aims to support those deprived of inheritance due to their lineage, effectively addressing historical injustices. The Imam’s share, conversely, is utilized to advance religious endeavors and bolster community initiatives.
