CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER MESSAGE

February 2023

Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh and Salam Sejahtera.

Alhamdulillah, praised to Allah, The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful, is due all praise. Blessings to the Prophet Muhammad SAW, His family, his associates, and all who adhere to his teachings.

All praise to Allah for granting us a good start to the new year. 2023 has begun with a series of meetings with other agencies, whether government, private, or non-governmental (NGOs). Our hope is that these meetings will result in a significant relationship while also broadening our networking with all interested parties.

In another development, the newly established Kelab Belia Masjid Jamek (MASJA-SA) [Masjid Jamek Youth Club] is currently expanding its membership, with a focus on youth from secondary schools and higher education institutes. Our hope is that this club will attract more participation from the youth and eventually become a significant platform for Muslim youth development.

We'd also like to provide an update on our Semariang Islamic Cemetery Complex (SICC), which is set to open on 1st April this year. The construction of this complex will indeed benefit the muslim public in terms of funeral arrangements.  For the record, SICC was established to provide a one-stop centre for burial management with convenient facilities such as a Funeral Parlour, the prayer room, and visitor amenities such as a washroom, parking bay, and a multi-purpose space.

Lets pray for devine guidance in all our undertakings.

Wabillahitaufik Walhidayah Wassalammualaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh.
