Question
A poor student of Deen is doing Ifta at the Fordsburg Jamiat ul Ulama- The Jamiat wants R20,000-00 per annum fees. If you cant pay, you are asked to apply for Zakah at the same Jamiat.- Is such round tripping of Zakah money allowed in the Shariah?- Most of the time in the Ifta classes, the students have to just sit and read, very little tuition is provided to them. Also, a considerable amount of their time is used to answer questions received by the Jamiat.
Answer
This type of 'round tripping' is khiyaanat (abuse and fraud). The NNB jamiat of Fordsburg is a scoundrel group which misleads Muslims on many issues. This mismanipulation of Zakaat is just one example of the haraam shenanigans which they perpetrate. They trade the Deen for a miserable price. They plunder the Zakaat which people entrust to them. The Zakaat obligation is not discharged.
