So a report has come out saying Asustralians need to be careful which charaties they give to as some of the funds will end up in the hands of terrorists.
Yet people still think that halal certification fund wont?
Halal certification is worth billions of dollars. Muslims, who can afford to, must pay zakat (2.5% of their income. And who gets this zakat money?
- Those living without means of livelihood , the poor
- Those who cannot meet their basic needs , the needy
- To zakat collectors
- To persuade those sympathetic to or expected to convert to Islam , recent converts to Islam and potential allies in the cause of Islam
- To free from slavery or servitude , slaves of Muslims who have or intend to free from their master by means of a kitabah contract
- Those who have incurred overwhelming debts while attempting to satisfy their basic needs , debtors who in pursuit of a worthy goal incurred a debt
- Those fighting for a religious cause or a cause of God or for Jihad in the way of Allah and for Islamic warriors who fight against the unbelievers but are not part of salaried soldiers.
- Wayfarers, stranded travellers travellers who are traveling on an Islamic goal but cannot reach their destination without financial assistance
Non Muslims can get it, but only after the needs of the Muslims have been met.
After funding the poor muslims, the Islamic schools, the mosques, the "fighters" etc, i would doubt much is being given to non muslims, if any
