On 28 November 2024, Maahad Tahfiz Al-Fateh received an official visit from representatives of the National Audit Department (NAD) and the Selangor Zakat Board (LZS) for the purpose of monitoring and evaluating the management of zakat fund distribution under the *fisabilillah* category carried out by the institution. This visit reflects the commitment of both parties in ensuring that zakat fund management is conducted transparently, systematically, and in compliance with Shariah principles.
The delegation from the National Audit Department was led by Puan Nur Hasriyanah, an experienced auditor, while the delegation from the Selangor Zakat Board was headed by Puan Masliza, Head of the Financial Reporting and Governance Department at LZS. Their arrival was warmly welcomed by Tuan Haji Mohd Tahir bin Hamdan, Chairman of the School Management Committee of Maahad Tahfiz Al-Fateh, along with other members of the administration.
Focus of Discussion and Monitoring
Throughout the visit, constructive discussions were held regarding the use of zakat funds to meet various educational needs of the students, including:
a) Infrastructure such as classroom buildings and dormitories.
b) Provision of basic facilities such as libraries, learning equipment, and technological infrastructure.
c) Support for holistic learning activities, including character development and academic programs.
This monitoring also aimed to assess the effectiveness of zakat fund distribution in assisting eligible fisabilillah students, while ensuring that all fund management procedures comply with the established Shariah criteria.
Appreciation and Hope
Maahad Tahfiz Al-Fateh extends its highest appreciation to the National Audit Department and the Selangor Zakat Board for their efforts in ensuring the smooth management of zakat funds and their positive impact on students and the institution. This visit also serves as proof of the importance of collaboration between educational institutions and authoritative bodies in upholding Islamic education.
It is hoped that this close relationship will continue to be strengthened in order to produce a generation of Al-Hafiz who not only excel in memorization but also understand and embody the values of the Quran in their daily lives.
