Summary
The Penang State Fatwa Committee agreed to extend the fi sabilillah status of Wakaf Pulau Pinang for another two years. The extension makes WPP eligible to receive zakat funds under the fisabilillah category from Zakat Pulau Pinang for its management and operations. WPP remains the nazir of waqf property and is not an amil of zakat.
