| Summary: | This study examines the appropriate method of zakat distribution applied in Malaysia, particularly in the Johor Islamic Religious Council to the ar-riqab group which is one of the eight eligible asnaf s (recipients) to receive zakat. This study identifies in detail the groups which can be classified as asnaf riqah as outlined by the scholars. The date obtained from the officers in the Social Welfare Department was analysed qualitatively in order to identify the criteria of asnaf riqab within the context of current reality. The findings show that there are eligible groups to be categorized as asnaf ar-riqah which are elder neglect victims, child abuse victims, children involved with crime and domestic violence victims. |
