Do I Need to Contribute Zakat?

1. Fixed Deductions:

FAQ

I haven’t registered for zakat before. What should I do?

No worries! Once you opt-in to the Zakat Deduction Programme, you’ll automatically be registered for Zakat Pendapatan.

My account is registered in Kuantan (Pahang) but I drive in Kuala Lumpur. Where will my contributions be directed to?

You’re encouraged to make zakat contributions to the zakat agency in the city where you work. However, if your registered Grab city is Pahang, your zakat contribution will be directed to Pusat Kutipan Zakat Pahang (PKZP).

If you wish to change it to Pusat Pungutan Zakat MAIWP (PPZ), you need to fill up this form. 

I am based outside of the cities listed but still want to contribute. What can I do?

Great Spirit! You can contribute directly at your nearest zakat agency. We’re also working on expanding this programme to more locations. Stay tuned!

I’ve already been paying zakat through another agency. What now?

If your zakat contributions are linked to your new IC number, we’ll sync your Grab earnings to that account.

Used a different ID (e.g., old IC, Police ID)? Simply provide those details in the opt-in form so we can merge your contributions correctly. 

Can I opt out from this programme?

Yes, you can opt out anytime by filling the form here but please note that the current month’s contribution will still be carried out.

Example: If you opt out on 16 March 2020, we will still deduct 2.5% of your March’s net earnings in April 2020. Deduction for zakat contributions will only stop in May 2020.

If you would like to contribute more than 2.5% of your monthly earnings, you can also do it via the relevant links provided above. 

How do I calculate my net earnings?

Net earnings = Total fares collected minus Grab’s commission (if any).

When is the deadline to opt in to the programme?

You must opt-in before the end of the month to start contributing the following month.

The deduction from your earnings will start in the following month.

Example: Opt in by 28 November, we’ll deduct your December earnings in January.

Is there an age limit for this programme?

There is no age limit to make a contribution. As long as you’re Muslim Grab partner, you’re eligible to participate regardless  of age. 

Where does this contribution go?

Your zakat is sent directly to your selected zakat agency every month.

What happens if I’m banned/terminated or  don’t have enough balance?

If this happens, deductions will automatically stop the following month, and you’ll be opted out of the programme. 

Kindly be reminded that all members of the Grab community are required to follow the Code of Conduct and Terms of Services.
