كتاب THE CHENNAI TREATISE ON ANNUAL PAYMENT OF ZAKAAH

uring my visit to Chennai (formerly known as Madras), India, for a series of lectures in the Winter of 2002, I was confronted with a Fiqh issue concerning the annual payment of Zakaah around which there was much controversy at the time. I immediately addressed it and dealt with it in some of my lectures as thoroughly as was possible, given the limited reference resources which were available to me and the time constraints of my lecture schedule. For most people who attended my lectures in Chennai, my answers backed up with evidences were satisfactory. However, for those who were staunch followers of the local scholar who had made the controversial fatwaas (ruling), it became obvious that a more detailed refutation was necessary. Furthermore, I was informed that one of the highly respected local scholars from the Ibn al-Qayyim Center had requested the brother to debate the subject on more than one occasion, but to no avail. On my return to the UAE, the brothers who organized my lecture tour, informed me that the local scholar had claimed that the evidences that I had used were not authentic, consequently the D 4 controversy was raging again. They regularly contacted me asking for my written response and sent me the scholar’s Arabic compilation indicating that the commonly used evidences were inauthentic. After reviewing the Arabic text, it became obvious that the response was not what it was purported to be. Furthermore, it even contained some of the arguments in support of the standard position of Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jamaa‘ah. I informed the brothers in Chennai of that fact and even translated the scholar’s Arabic response for them. 1 However, that did not prove to be sufficient. Consequently, in response to repeated requests, which also emanated from other parts of India, like Bangalore, Bombay, etc., I finally decided to put this treatise together. Another majo r reason for compiling this detailed refutation was t he fact that the student of knowledge’s fatwaa had led to many leading Indian businessmen, and middle class professionals abandoning the payment of their Zakaah. The conditions for giving Zakat and who should receive Zakat and explainations of certain Quranic verses.
