In a statement issued today, the Perlis Islamic Religious and Malay Customs Council (MAIPs) highlighted His Royal Highness' notable achievements, including his humanitarian missions, educational collaborations, and efforts to promote religious diplomacy. "His work has had a lasting impact, particularly in strengthening the zakat and waqf management systems and enhancing the role of mosques as community hubs. "Under His Royal Highness' leadership, MAIPs has emerged as a progressive and authoritative religious institution. His leadership is a symbol of a monarchy that is close to the people and visionary in developing Perlis," read the statement. Most recently, Tuanku Syed Faizuddin Putra led MAIPs' humanitarian missions to Kenya and Rwanda, forging strategic collaborations with international Islamic education institutions.

MAIPs also celebrated Tuanku Syed Faizuddin Putra's milestone during the Takrim 25 Tahun Pemasyhuran (25th Anniversary of His Royal Highness' Ascension as Perlis Raja Muda) which coincided with the 2026-2030 consultative dialogue on the direction of state's Islamic affairs here on Friday. The anniversary celebration symbolised the highest appreciation for His Royal Highness' leadership over the past two and a half decades. His dedication to guiding the ummah, upholding religion, and serving the people of Perlis was honoured through a special ceremony, which included a trilingual poetry performance titled Ungkap Kata Puji Mahkota – حملة المدحِ. In his speech during the dialogue, Tuanku Syed Faizuddin Putra reaffirmed his commitment to strengthening the direction of Islamic affairs in Perlis for the 2026–2030 period. His focus will remain on ensuring Perlis remains a harmonious, knowledgeable, and prosperous state through an integrated and impactful approach. "This Takrim ceremony not only reflects on His Royal Highness' 25-year leadership journey, but also serves as a renewed pledge to continue the struggle for blessings, justice, and the well-being of the ummah," said MAIPs, adding that prayers for His Royal Highness's continued leadership and divine blessings were made. Tuanku Syed Faizuddin Putra was officially installed as Raja Muda of Perlis on Oct 12, 2000, at the Balairong Seri, Istana Arau, following the proclamation of his father, Tuanku Syed Sirajuddin Jamalullail, as Raja of Perlis on April 16 of the same year.
