UniKL has successfully amassed over RM1.2 million in zakat contributions spanning from January to December 2023, derived from both counter payments and a salary deduction scheme.
Chairman of Tabung Amanah Zakat UniKL (UniZ@UniKL), Ts. Dr. Zulkifli Mahmoodin, highlighted that a notable portion, totalling RM591,852, was contributed through the salary deduction scheme, marking one of the highest figures to date.
These collections enabled the distribution of aid to 332 asnafs, who benefited from monthly allowances and Eid contributions at a ceremony held today, which was hosted by UniKL Malaysian Institute of Aviation Technology (UniKL MIAT).
“We not only extend aid to asnafs, but also allocate funds for mosque renovations. UniKL staff members, particularly those facing health issues or affected by floods, are also the recipients of zakat assistance,” said Ts. Dr. Zulkifli.
Also present were the Head of the Collection Division at Lembaga Zakat Selangor (LZS), Muhd Fikri Naim Harun, Deputy President (Academic & Technology) of UniKL, Prof. Dr. Kushsairy Abdul Kadir; Dean of UniKL MIAT, Dr. Mohd Hafizi Shamsudin, Dean of UniKL Malaysia France Institute (UniKL MFI), Assoc. Prof Dr. Tengku Mohd Azahar Tuan Dir; and Dean of UniKL Institute of Medical Science Technology (UniKL MESTECH), Assoc. Prof. Dr Reezal Ishak.
Notably, 160 students from UniKL’s Selangor campus attended to receive Eid contributions. Over the period from 2023 to early 2024, a total of 332 individuals within the UniKL community benefited from zakat contributions, encompassing 328 needy students and 4 staff members facing adversity.
UniKL BMI has served as the focal point for zakat collection and distribution across three Selangor campuses, facilitated by the management operations team of UniKL Assistant Amil IPT under the LZS.
The UniZ@UniKL operates under the oversight of a committee chaired by the Campus Head or Dean of UniKL BMI.
