The Akhnasiyyah Stole the Zakat of Their Slaves
بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
The extinct Khwarij sect, the Akhnasiyyah, trace their origin to a man called “al-Akhnas”. Not much is known about this particular person. They hold the opinion that the slave-owner may take for himself part of the zakat due to his slave, and pass on to him only part of his zakat, if the slave-owner is needy and impoverished.
