Issue 1: Giving Zakat to Non-Muslims Issue
Issue 2: Giving Zakat to Immediate Family Members
Zakat is one of the five pillars of Islam and plays an important role in building the Islamic social and economic system. It not only aims to purify the property and soul of individual Muslims, but also as an instrument for the fair distribution of wealth in society. Thus, zakat is the pillar of social balance and strengthening brotherhood in the Muslim community. The distribution of zakat has been clearly determined by Allah SWT through verse 60 in Surah al-Tawbah, which details the eight groups (asnaf) who are eligible to receive zakat. However, in the increasingly complex modern world and a plural society that is increasingly interacting closely, various contemporary questions arise about how the distribution of zakat can be handled fairly and based on sharia. Among them are the issue of giving zakat to non-Muslims and the question of the obligation to give zakat to immediate family members. This discussion is important because it touches on the aspects of validity, priority and benefit that need to be considered by the zakat institution and the muzakki (zakat payers). In the context of a multi-racial and multi-religious Malaysian society, as well as challenging economic challenges, this discourse is increasingly gaining attention among Islamic scholars, policymakers, and the general public. Therefore, this presentation will focus on two main issues: 1. The law and fiqh debate on giving zakat to non-Muslims; and 2. The law on giving zakat to immediate family members who are in difficult circumstances. Through an analysis of syarak evidence, scholarly views, and current considerations, we will assess how the principles of zakat can be applied wisely and justly in a contemporary context. |
