TH Forges Cooperation With ADAHI, To Manage Malaysian Pilgrims' Dam And Sacrificial Rite
From Nurliyana Farhah Ruslan MAKKAH, May 13 (Bernama) -- The Pilgrims Management Fund Board (TH) has signed an agreement with The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's Project for Utilisation of Hady and Adahi (ADAHI) for the implementation of dam and sacrificial rites for Malaysian hajj pilgrims for the 1446H/2025M hajj season. Malaysian Hajj delegation head Mohd Hisham Harun said ADAHI is the only organisation recognised by the Saudi Arabian Ministry of Hajj and Umrah to manage the slaughter of sacrificial and dam rites in a systematic and lawful manner according to Islamic law. "This is the first time TH has implemented both dam and sacrificial rituals through a single channel. Previously, it was done separately through a tender process," he said after the signing ceremony of a memorandum of understanding (MoU) between TH and ADAHI at the ADAHI headquarters here, on Monday. Earlier, Mohd Hisham signed the MoU with ADAHI General Coordinator Saad Abdul Rahman Al-Wabil. Also present were TH's deputy head of Hajj Welfare Mohamed Heikal Mohamed Yusuff and TH finance operations director Shamsul Bahar Shamsudin. Mohd Hisham said ADAHI is an official entity of the Saudi Arabian Government under the Royal Commission for Makkah City and Holy Sites and was selected based on the company's modern logistics and facilities. "ADAHI operates eight slaughtering complexes equipped with meat freezing and processing facilities and the meat is not only distributed to the community in Makkah and around the Holy Land, but is also distributed to more than 30 other countries," he said. In addition, Mohd Hisham said the collaboration between TH and ADAHI can provide assurance to pilgrims that their dam and sacrificial rituals are carried out transparently, cleanly and in accordance with set international standards. Mohd Hisham also advised pilgrims to make dam and sacrificial payments through THiJARI application to avoid fraud and dubious worship practices.

The second tranche, which has a size of SAR 316 million, matures in 2029, while the third (SAR 1.46 billion) and fourth (SAR 500 million) will mature in 2032 and 2039, respectively, according to the National Debt Management Centre (NMDC). The sukuk market is forecast to stay upbeat this year, with global issuances likely to be between $190 billion and $200 billion, according to S&P. The ratings agency noted a 29% jump in foreign-currency issuance to $72.7 billion as of December 2024, thanks largely to issuers from GCC countries led by Saudi Arabia, as well as Malaysia and Indonesia.
