This paper is an attempt to reveal a comparison in religious duties and responsibilities toward wealth in Islam and Sikhism. Islam and Sikhism are chosen because both religions have so many common elements in term of teachings, concepts, practices and beliefs. Furthermore, they have a unique and intimate relation historically. This paper analyzes the practice, concepts and philosophy of zakat in Islam and dasvanth in Sikhism. Data were collected through library research, interviews and observation. After the concepts, practice and philosophy of both practices sufficiently studied and understood, the data then analyzed comparatively to find out elements of convergence and elements of divergence. It is found that there are some similarities or parallel elements between the two religions in this regard. However, upon a close analysis, there are also differences that make the two religions diverge to different goals.
