| Summary: | The main purpose of this paper is to examine the financial liabilities treatment in zakat
assessment. The existence of the new forms of wealth has now become a challenge for zakat practitioners in
dealing with zakat assessments. Therefore, this study seeks to examine financial liability treatment as
recommended by JAWHAR and practices at Zakat Institutions in Malaysia for zakat on business and shares.
Based on the content analysis, this study found that some zakat institutions in Malaysia allow for the deduction
of financial liabilities in the zakat assessment. |
