Summary
The 60th Muzakarah of the National Fatwa Committee, held on 23 October 2003, ruled that ANGKASA must pay zakat at a rate of 2.5% if the haul and nisab are met. The amount is calculated after deducting service and management expenses and income tax. Zakat is based on income and profit from business activities when there is growth, development and expansion relative to value and capital.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
