Summary
The Penang State Fatwa Committee set the zakat fitrah rate in four categories according to the type of rice consumed: RM7.00, RM10.00, RM15.00 and RM25.00. The RM7.00 rate is a new addition this year, for those who eat local Super Special 5% rice, broken rice or an equivalent. The staple food value of Penang residents is set at RM10.00, while the other values refer to the rate of one's own food (qut al-nafs).
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
