The following Question
was asked to Dr. Salah Soltan (Ph.D. in
Figh, President of Islamic American
University, Professor at Dar Ul-Ulume,
Cairo University)
ISRI:
"Can ZAKAT money be paid to
establish an Islamic School in America?"
Dr. Soltan: "It is
mubah (permissible) to give Zakat
for
Islamic Education to
protect our
children from
fitna (trail). It is our
duty to establish in every city an
Islamic School i.e. Islamic Education.
At the conference of Ulmema in Makkah
Mukaramah they said it is permissible to
give some of Zakat to Islamic Schools. I
asked many scholars at the Europe Figh
Council and they agree as well"
Jazak Allhu Khayran!
