BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN: Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah on Tuesday morning (July 8) made an unannounced visit to the Ministry of Religious Affairs (MoRA), where the monarch delivered a speech calling for a more efficient and accountable management of zakat, wakaf and Baitulmal affairs in Brunei Darussalam.
His Majesty highlighted the divine wisdom behind zakat, explaining that it is a mechanism in Islam that enables the wealthy to share their resources with the less fortunate — a concept that showcases Islam’s guidance in financial stewardship.
