Zakat House and the MB


June 20, 2014, (KUNA) — Kuwait’s Zakat House has donated USD 140,000 to the Islamic cultural center in Switzerland to fund building a center for raising awareness about Islam. The Centre Socio Culturel Des Musulmans De Lausanne, run by Mohamed Karmous, is a known MB organization.


An article from Al-Shahed, dated July 2014, claimed that the investments of ZH have suffered great losses due to its involvement with failing MB companies in Kuwait, Egypt and many other countries.


Zakat House and KFH


On May 26, 2014 Kuwait Finance House (KFH) offered Zakat House KWD 6 million as Zakat from shareholders to support and finance charitable projects in Kuwait and overseas in collaboration with official authorities working in that field, which is part of its social responsibility.


Until 2013, the Shari’a board of KFH included, among others, Ajil al-Nashmi and Khaled al-Madhkur.
