I'm also Muslim so I guess I can answer this.
We usually pay it to charities, in the old days Muslims would go around looking for people who needed the money and directly pay it to them but now we send it off to foundations though we can still pay it directly if we would like.
Most Muslims also sponsor Orphans. I am actually sponsoring two orphans.
This is how bad things have become. I just thought that maybe I, a non-Muslim, could contribute to one of these charities. And then I immediately was worried that the transactions would be noticed and I would be accused of supporting a terrorist organization, because of the meta data between me and the charity and then innocent and coincidental meta data beween some third party person of interest and the same charity.
And thus is the First Amendment right to freedom of association destroyed. Fuck you, NSA.
