MAIK Expands Digital ‘Sedekah' Access Via Collaboration With SecurePay
GENERAL KOTA BHARU, July 30 (Bernama) -- The Kelantan Islamic Religious and Malay Customs Council (MAIK) today signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Syarikat Securepay Sdn Bhd to develop the Sedekah e-Jariah Masjid and Sedekah Seriya Sehari digital platforms. MAIK president Tan Sri Tengku Mohamad Rizam Tengku Abdul Aziz said Securepay had contributed RM460,000 towards the platforms' development through its corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiative. He added that the e-Jariah Masjid system, launched on 20 February, provides a convenient platform for the public to make online donations to 621 mosques across Kelantan. 'Meanwhile, the Sedekah Seriya Sehari platform, launched this month, targets every Kelantanese, regardless of location, to contribute 'seriya' (RM1) a day,' he told reporters after witnessing the MoU signing ceremony. The MoU was signed by MAIK deputy president Datuk Mohd Anis Hussein and Securepay executive director Datuk Amir Haris Ahmad. Tengku Mohamad Rizam said that, in line with MAIK's role as a religious institution, its responsibilities should be broadened by providing the public with easy, transparent and secure means to make donations. Elaborating, he added that although the Sedekah Seriya Sehari platform involved only a small daily donation of RM1 from each individual, it could still make a significant impact on society, particularly for those in need who fall outside the asnaf (eligible tithe recipients) category. 'A daily contribution of RM1 can help ease the burdens of the less fortunate, regardless of race, ethnicity or religion. This MoU is expected to bring great benefits to the people of Kelantan and advance the digital transformation of online donations and infaq,' he said. --BERNAMA

#SHOWBIZ: Tom Cruise, Ana de Armas confirm romance during Vermont trip
WOODSTOCK: Tom Cruise and Ana de Armas have seemingly confirmed their long-rumoured romance, as they were spotted walking hand-in-hand during a recent date in Woodstock, Vermont in the US. Following their appearance at Oasis' sold-out reunion concert in London on July 25, the pair reportedly flew back across the pond and touched down in the charming New England town, according to pictures obtained by TMZ. It was there that their speculated relationship appeared to be cemented, with the two openly holding hands as they strolled through the quaint streets. TMZ reported that the 'Mission: Impossible' star and the 'Ballerina' actress drove through a national park, went shopping, and stopped for ice cream – all while holding hands. Attempts by E! News to contact representatives for both stars for comment have not been successful. This public display of affection follows months of apparent dates. Since first being seen together on Valentine's Day in Madrid, Tom and Ana have spent time together in London on multiple occasions – with Tom even flying the 'Knives Out' actress there by helicopter on one occasion – and enjoyed a sun-drenched getaway on the Spanish island of Menorca. Back in May, Ana spoke about her professional relationship with Tom, highlighting several upcoming projects. "It's so much fun, and we're definitely working on a lot of things," the 37-year-old teased on 'Good Morning America' on May 15. "Not just one but a few projects with Doug Liman and Christopher McQuarrie and, of course, Tom. And I'm so excited." That same day, Tom – who was previously married to Katie Holmes, Nicole Kidman, and Mimi Rogers – couldn't help but praise Ana's film 'Ballerina', in which she stars alongside Keanu Reeves. "I just saw the movie," the 63-year-old told TikToker Javier Ibarreche at the London premiere of 'Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning'. "It just kicks ass!" The significance of such praise, coming from an action genre veteran, was not lost on Ana. "It makes me really happy and proud," she admitted to E! News' Will Marfuggi in an exclusive interview at the 'Ballerina' Los Angeles premiere on June 3.
