Club career

Charara started his youth career with Nejmeh on 14 August 1999, before being promoted to the first team ahead of the 2005–06 season. In 2010, he moved to Jordan's Al-Karmel, where he played a couple of matches. The same year, Charara moved to Al-Shabab in Bahrain.
In August 2011, he signed with Cypriot First Division side Ermis Aradippou for the 2011–12 season. He debuted for Ermis in a 0–0 draw against Ethnikos Achna on 10 September.
Zakaria joined 2011 Malaysia Super League champions Kelantan FA on 6 December 2011, signing a two-year contract. However, due to a lack of playing time with Kelantan, Charara went on a loan until the rest of the season to fellow-Malaysian Super League side Kuala Lumpur FA. He scored his first league goal on 5 May 2012, converting a penalty in a 1–1 draw with Sarawak FA.
Following the 2012 Malaysia Super League, Zakaria re-joined Nejmeh. He made his debut on 29 September 2012 against Chabab Ghazieh.

Zakaria made his debut for the Lebanon national team in 2009. He scored once, in a friendly against Namibia. His last match was against South Korea in 2012.
