Summary
The Johor State Fatwa Committee decided that redeeming an heirs' house in which Baitulmal holds a share is permissible. The ruling is linked to the applicant being poor. The redemption is made using asnaf miskin funds, with the payment given to Baitulmal.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Oleh kerana pemohon adalah seorang yang miskin maka harus hukumnya dilakukan penebusan tersebut dengan menggunakan wang asnaf miskin untuk dibayar kepada Baitulmal.
