  • Zakah from salary and EPF: issues and challenges

    • Authors: Ismail Abdel Mohsin, Magda; Lahsasna, Ahcene; Ismail, Ezamshah (2011)

  • The beginning of the 1980's witness a new approach of collecting zakah on monthly bases in some of the Muslim countries such as Sudan, Pakistan and Malaysia. At first, this creates an ambiguous situation amongst Muslim scholars as to its legitimacy, since the payment of zakah is known to be given on annual bases and once it reaches the nisab (the minimum assigned). Recently, a consensus has been given amongst contemporary Muslim scholars that it is lawful to pay the zakah on monthly basis. Malaysia is one of the countries that start implementing zakah deduction on monthly basis through participating in a scheme called the Salary Deduction Scheme. This raises the question on some of th...

  • Zakat - the power of alleviating poverty

    • Authors: Ismail Abdel Mohsin, Magda (2020)

  • The recent statistical data on poverty shows that most of the people who live below the poverty line are found in Muslim countries. For example, the total population who are living below poverty line in Algeria is 25%, in Egypt 25.2%, in Bangladesh 26%, in Syria 35.2%, in Afghanistan 35.8%, in Pakistan 36.3%, in Nigeria 46%, in Sudan 46.5%, in Chad 46.7%, in Senegal 46.7%, in Yemen 54% and in Somalia 73%. Some scholars relate this poverty to the oppression, humiliation and bad policies which had been imposed in almost all Muslim countries during colonization and have continued up to the present time. Others relate this to the incompetence and the corruption on the part of their govern...

  • Zakat in Islamic wealth management

    • Authors: Mahomed, Ziyaad (2017)

  • The common understanding of investments is to manage wealth such that there is wealth increase with rare losses of the starting value to compensate wealth holders (i) against inflation via risk-free return and (ii) plus a risk premium for the risk of the investment. It thus has the twin objectives of growth in wealth and preservation of wealth. This is achieved by means of a planned strategy that defines the goals of the investor. Wealth management includes the following: to achieve maximum growth with minimal risk (or maximum growth for a target level of risk); to manage risk as far as is possible to minimise taxation and other costs to receive a consistent income; to have a consiste...

  • Zakat, Islamic wealth management & wealth effects

    • Authors: Mahomed, Ziyaad (2016)

  • The purification of wealth through charity is considered a significant part of the trusteeship of wealth or wealth management. In the Quranic verses 17:26-27 & 29-30, Almighty Allah clarifies the right that the deserving and the needy have over the wealth entrusted to man, further instructing that these rights be fulfilled as a financial obligation. For example, hoarding excessive wealth (wealth that is not invested) is actually irrational as zakat is charged on all financial and real assets, resulting in a negative rate of return (zakat rate) Al-Jarhi (1985).
