Selangor Sultan urges Muslims to pay zakat only to state-appointed collectors


SHAH ALAM: The Sultan of Selangor Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah has called on the Muslims in Selangor to pay their zakat (tithe) directly to the appointed amil (collectors) in the state.

His Royal Highness said this is because there were cases where certain agents, appointed by Islamic religious councils from other states, have collected zakat in Selangor, which is outside the designated area.
