Moscow says theatre hostage takers were funded from Saudi Arabia This makes it sound as if the hostage taking was officially sanctioned by the government of Saudi Arabia. He added: "The Saudis have said they will look more closely at some charity organisations and we cannot help but believe that this is a direct response to [our] concerns. I think people need to remember that Islam requires charity, and evil do'ers have taken advantage of this. "The Qur'an, together with other Islamic traditions, strongly encourages charity and constantly reminds Muslims of their moral obligation to the poor, orphans, and widows; however, is distinguishes between general, voluntary charity (sadaqa) and zakat, the latter being an obligatory charge on the money or produce of Muslims."
