Monthly Al Kawtharzakat-fitra


Question

Zakat of ten thousand rupees has become obligatory on a person. He wants to buy a book with this money and make a waqf in the madrasa kutubkhana. Will his zakat be collected through this? 6532372965


Answer

- حامداومصلياومسلما، بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم -

If a book is purchased for the purpose of zakat in an institution, zakat will not be collected by it. Because, in order to collect zakat, it is necessary to make a suitable person the owner of zakat. Therefore, if the waqf is made in the institution without making the person the owner, the zakat will not be collected by it. It is revealed that buying religious books in madrasas is a great reward. This includes charity. This is the reward for propagating the religion and cooperating in religious work. All these works have to be done from nafl donations without zakat-fitra goods. It is the duty of able Muslims to help in these religious activities. 4565389834
