Tithing Money – Not Making It Through the Month

Question

I have debts and I can’t make it through the month,
am I obligated to give maaser from my money (the charity tithe)?

Answer

Shalom u-vracha 

If indeed you do not have what you need for your essential expenses, you are exempt from giving maaser from your money.
