KUALA LUMPUR: Online merchants, dropship suppliers, agents and individuals involved in online businesses are among those who are eligible to pay a business tithe, says the Federal Territories Islamic Religious Council (MAIWP).

Federal Territories Islamic Religious Council Zakat Collection Centre Dakwah Zakat assistant general manager Khairul Azhar Samsudin said small traders need to fulfill this obligation and make the payment at the PPZ-MAIWP office if the conditions and nisab are sufficient.

Khairul Azhar said the business tithe is different from an income or personal tithe because those who are obliged to pay will be given a tax rebate and it is enshrined in the Income Tax Act 1967. Khairul Azhar added that companies that have a joint venture ownership with non-Muslims need to pay according to the ownership breakdown for the Muslim partners only.

As such, Khairul Azhar called on the public who are eligible to pay business tithe to carry out their responsibilities as this would help spur economic activities.
