Summary

The Johor Fatwa Committee agreed to accept the proposed 2020 budget of the Johor Islamic Religious Council, subject to several considerations. The types of zakat and the categories of recipients should be defined in detail, and funding for government religious schools, higher education student aid, tahfiz student aid and the Rohingya community is moved to the rikab category. Converts of more than 10 years who are selected for hajj or umrah are funded from the muallaf allocation. The memorial house building is to undergo istibdal, and the purchase of ten vehicles is to be done in stages.

Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.

Bersetuju muallaf yang melebihi 10 tahun dan terpilih untuk menunaikan ibadah haji dan umrah oleh Majlis Agama Islam Negeri Johor, ditanggung perbelanjaan ibadah haji dan umrahnya menggunakan peruntukkan daripada asnaf muallaf.
