Zakah calculation : [2]

Fatawa Question

I had organised an 8 person workshop this weekend, and we had read through all the papers from the Bangladesh conference on Zakah, Awqaf and Micro-finance as well as your papers on Zakah (from your web-site). Alhumdulillah, it not only expanded our minds and knoweledge base, but in many cases it endorsed our opinions, views and modus operandi. Also, we endorse and accept that a lot more work and education needs to go into promoting concepts of social-justice and we accepted the responsibility ... alhumdulillah, your paper on this theme was indeed valuable ! Furthermore, and as I indicated in an earlier correspondance, we need some clarity and explanation as to how/why some items in your Zakah calculation for Muslims in North America (revised edition (electronic) January 2001) was arrived at. We have listed several points that require clarity and we first ask for your patience and understanding as we attempt to put accross what for the learned might come accross as obvious and silly questions ... Please forgive our ignorance ... For full Fatwa, download the PDF.
