300 Asnaf In Beserah Receive Food Aid Worth RM60,000
KUANTAN, June 29 (Bernama) -- A total of 300 asnaf (eligible zakat recipients) in Beserah received food baskets worth RM60,000 in conjunction with the Indera Mahkota Al-Falah MADANI Carnival 2025 today.
Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Religious Affairs) Datuk Dr Mohd Na'im Mokhtar said his department also contributed RM100,000 in Musa'adah assistance to 17 religious institutions in Pahang, in addition to 10,000 school bags and supplies for students statewide.
He said the carnival, organised by the Prime Minister's Department (Religious Affairs) through the Department of Islamic Development Malaysia (Jakim), successfully met its objectives by fostering harmony and strengthening community ties.
'This carnival offers a platform to get to know each other more closely, especially among the people of Indera Mahkota and Beserah.
'Its objectives are evident, from the sharing of knowledge to supporting the asnaf group and initiatives that benefit the wider community,' he said during the Al-Falah MADANI Musa'adah Contribution Presentation Ceremony at Masjid Jamek Beserah here.
Mohd Na'im added that the carnival, held in collaboration with various government agencies, reflected the spirit of the Prophet Muhammad's hijrah from Makkah to Madinah, which centred on strengthening ukhuwah (brotherhood) within society.
