Anwar abides by S'gor sultan's 'zakat for Muslims only' ruling

PKR president Anwar Ibrahim today said he abides by Selangor ruler Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah's position that zakat (Islamic tithe) should only be for Muslims.

Anwar added that his suggestion that zakat is also used to help poor non-Muslims was a personal view as he believed it would help show justice and compassion in Islam...
