Question

At present, some of our companions here are preaching that if zakat is given in madrasas, zakat will not be collected because they do not spend it properly. In addition, the zakat money must reach the person directly, otherwise the zakat will not be collected. We have paid Zakat in the Madrasa in the past, we intend to do it again. In this case, can a document-based video be given on whether zakat can be paid in a madrasa, how to pay if given and how the madrasa authorities will spend this money? The matter is urgent and I hope to answer at least at the beginning of Ramadan. 5596988986

Zakat is not collected if the zakat money is not made the owner. That's right. But it is also important to remember and know that the madrasa authorities know this masala. As such, they receive zakat in a proper and just manner. So that the zakat of the zakat payers is collected properly. All Qawmi madrasas have two funds. One is the General Fund. Another is the Lillah Fund. Zakat and obligatory charity money is received in Lillah Fund. Then it is used for poor students. On behalf of the poor students, the madrasa authorities advocate for the receipt of zakat through ukalatnama or orally. As a result, if the wajiba is given in the lillah fund of the madrasa, the zakat and sadaqa are collected by the authorities. For example, among the students who are admitted in our Madrasa ‘Talimul Islam Institute and Research Center Dhaka’, those who are not able to pay the prescribed monthly dues of the Madrasa, write a letter of intent to the Madrasa authorities at the beginning of the year. So that it is written that the said student is not able to pay the prescribed dues of the madrasa due to being poor. Therefore, the student is appointing a lawyer to the madrasa authorities so that they can bear the expenses by collecting zakat. Through this, the madrasa authorities get the right to receive the annual expenses of the student from the zakat fund. As a result, whenever someone pays zakat in a madrasa, the authorities take money as a lawyer for the poor students and deposit it in the madrasa. If you pay zakat in a madrasa, you can expect to get two thawabs. One is to reach the rightful claimant. Secondly, the reward of cooperation in the spread of religious education. So the enemy of the madrasa should not be misled by the propaganda of any individual or group. By paying Zakat in the Goraba / Lillah Fund of the Madrasa, he pays Zakat to the rightful claimant and assists in spreading religious education. إِنَّمَا الصَّدَقَاتُ لِلْفُقَرَاءِ وَالْمَسَاكِينِ Zakat is only for the poor, the needy - Surah Tawba, 60. 3158775676
