Summary
The Sarawak State Fatwa Board decided that redemption money in ta’liq divorce cases must be handed over to the Sarawak Baitulmal Fund. The owner may claim the money back from Baitulmal within 7 years. Any money not claimed within that period becomes the right of the Sarawak Baitulmal Fund. The handover mechanism is to be discussed between the Sarawak Syariah Judiciary Department and the Baitulmal Fund.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
