The rings considered in this article are commutative with identity which are not integral domains. Let $R$ be a ring. An ideal $I$ of $R$ is said to be an annihilating ideal of $R$ if there exists $r\in R\backslash \{0\}$ such that $Ir = (0)$. Let $\mathbb{A}(R)$ denote the set of all annihilating ideals of $R$ and let $\mathbb{A}(R)^{*} = \mathbb{A}(R)\backslash \{(0)\}$. Recall that the annihilating-ideal graph of $R$, denoted by $\mathbb{AG}(R)$, is an undirected graph whose vertex set is $\mathbb{A}(R)^{*}$ and distinct vertices $I$ and $J$ are adjacent in this graph if and only if $IJ = (0)$. The aim of this article is to characterize zero-dimensional rings such that the clique number of their annihilating-ideal graphs is at most four.
