Summary
The ruling authority (ulil amri) may undertake Waqf Irsod, a waqf project sourced from Baitulmal assets, after considering the public interest of Muslims. The Islamic religious council and legitimate zakat management agencies (amilin) may also use the actual surplus of the amil share expenditure for this purpose. This decision was made by the Perlis State Fatwa Committee in 2026.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
MAIPs atau pihak agensi mengurus zakat (amilin) yang sah boleh mengambil lebihan sebenar perbelanjaan bahagian amilin bagi tujuan Wakaf Irsod.
