Muis brings further Ramadhan cheer to poor and needy in Singapore

The Islamic Religious Council of Singapore (Muis) announced that it will disburse an additional S$2,260,000 in zakat to 7,200 poor and needy households. The sum is in addition to their monthly zakat assistance as part of the Ramadan Disbursement in 2022.  

The disbursement is a provision for the poor and needy Muslims in Singapore who are existing beneficiaries of the monthly zakat financial assistance (FA) and is offered during Ramadhan to share the joy of the festive period. 

The additional cash disbursement has also been extended to selected recipients of ComCare’s Long Term Assistance (including their family members), selected households referred from Family Service Centres, as well as children and elderly residents of selected welfare homes. Beneficiaries will receive a cash disbursement of between S$150 and S$1,000 depending on household size. 

Eligible beneficiaries for the Ramadan Disbursement have been notified through mail and can expect to receive their disbursement in the next 3 to 4 weeks.

Muis will also be delivering gift hampers to more than 250 ComCare Long-Term Assistance beneficiaries and residents from over 40 welfare homes and institutions, as well as food for buka puasa (breaking of fast) to selected welfare homes.

Muis opens Hajj 2022 to 407

In response to new developments from the KSA Ministry of Hajj and Umrah, the Islamic Religious Council of Singapore (Muis) has filled this year's Hajj quota for Singapore with eligible pilgrims who were supposed to perform their Hajj in 2020. The pilgrimage had been deferred for Singapore pilgrims since 2020 due to COVID.

Muis had previously asked pilgrims who were affected by the deferment of Hajj in 2020 and 2021 if they would be interested to perform this year’s Hajj, and recorded their vaccination status plus latest contact details. This is part of Muis’ efforts to get prospective pilgrims to prepare early, remain flexible and be spiritually, physically, mentally, and financially ready to perform their Hajj. 

Those who have yet to reply to Muis are requested to do so by 29 April 2022, failing which they will be automatically placed in the queue for subsequent years. Muis has also confirmed that all other pilgrims who are in the Advance Haj Registration System will be automatically requeued to perform Hajj in subsequent years, subject to conditions and requirements as mandated by the KSA authorities. 

The Ministry of Hajj and Umrah recently announced that Hajj in 2022 will be opened to 1 million pilgrims, including 850,000 international pilgrims. Each country is accorded approximately 45% of their previous official pre-pandemic quota. Singapore has been granted a Hajj quota of 407 places, which is approximately 45% of the previous official quota of 900.

The Ministry also specified that this year’s Hajj will be allocated for pilgrims aged under 65. All pilgrims must be COVID-19 vaccinated with a KSA-approved vaccine and must submit a negative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test within 72 hours from the time of departure to KSA. 

Muis is now appointing approved travel agents for Hajj 2022 and finalising the approved Hajj packages available for pilgrims. Muis will be announcing the list of approved travel agents and package prices on 4 May 2022. 

Muis is also finalising the list of pilgrims who are able to meet the conditions and requirements for Hajj 2022 and will be issuing formal letters of offer on 5 May 2022. Eligible pilgrims will be notified via SMS informing them to check their email for details on the collection of their letter. 

Upon accepting the formal offer from Muis, pilgrims are required to purchase Hajj packages with their preferred approved travel agent within three calendar days. 

Allocated pilgrims are strongly advised to prepare the following travel documents before purchasing their Hajj packages: 

- Valid passport (six months validity before departure date) 

- Colour passport picture (4 cm x 6 cm) 

- COVID-19 vaccination certificate (www.notarise.gov.sg)

- Meningococcal meningitis vaccination certificate

- Seasonal influenza vaccination certificate (recommended) 

Given the requirement of a negative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test within 72 hours from the time of departure to KSA, pilgrims are strongly encouraged to purchase travel insurance that cover their medical expenses in KSA, trip cancellation and trip curtailment, should they fail their PCR test and cannot travel to KSA. 

Muis also stated that the cost of approved Hajj packages is dependent on costs in KSA. "We are still awaiting confirmation from the Saudi authorities, although there are indications that there will be an increase in costs compared to pre-pandemic times," the organisation said in a statement.

Muis announces logistics for Eid prayers

The Islamic Religious Council of Singapore (Muis) together with the mosque sector will open the booking window for Hari Raya (Eid) prayer slots on 28 April 2022 at 10 am. The prayer, which is scheduled to take place on 3 May 2022, will see 66 mosques offering a total of 153,250 spaces. 

Each of the 66 mosques will offer at least two sessions of Eid prayers. The first session will be conducted from 7.30 am to 8.15 a.m, and the second session from 8.45 am to 9.30 am. Of these mosques, 15 mosques that, based on data, are expecting bigger attendances will offer a third session from 10 am to 10.45 am. Congregants attending the third session at these selected mosques may walk-in to perform their prayer with no booking of slots required.

Based on attendance patterns and demand throughout Ramadhan, 60 mosques will cater to both male and female congregants while six mosques will cater to only male congregants. 

Muis encourages the community to plan accordingly, and to consider going to lesser crowded mosques that are located away from neighbourhoods and housing estates. Muis also asked congregants who are unwell or unable to attend the prayer to cancel their bookings so that others may get the slot.

Booking of the prayer slots can be made via the Muslim.sg app or https://ourmosque.commonspaces.sg. Browse the list of mosques here.

Ramadhan worship services return to Singapore

The Muslim community in Singapore can look forward to Ramadhan worship services in mosques this year. Many of the activities were suspended in previous years due to Covid, the Islamic Religious Council of Singapore (Muis) has announced. Some safe management measures will remain for the safety of congregants and to reduce the risk of transmission, Muis said.

Muslims are encouraged to break their fast at home and perform their maghrib prayers (صلاة المغرب, sunset prayer) with heir families. They may then proceed to the mosques to perform the 'isha (صلاة العشاء, night prayer) and terawih prayers (صلاة التراويح). The community may also participate in other Ramadhan activities such as recitation of the Quran, night prayers and religious lectures as offered by mosques.

Muis continues to emphasise the importance of a cautious approach as more religious activities resume. "We also note the national posture of observing new developments to pandemic, such as the possibility of new strains and community outbreaks, which may necessitate further calibration and adjustments to religious life," the organisation said in a statement.

"We seek the support and understanding of the Muslim community to continue to be socially responsible, to show compassion and support to mosques’ staff and volunteers and safeguard public health as we perform our religious obligations in our mosques."

Muis guidance for various activities includes:

Breaking of fast 

For congregants who are unable to break their fast at home with family due to work commitments, some mosques may have an area - separate from the prayer area - where congregants may break their fast, subject to the prevailing safe management measures. Congregants may then perform their sunset prayers before returning to work. Overall, congregants who are able to are strongly encouraged to break their fast and perform their maghrib prayers with their family members at home.

Terawih prayers

Mosques will be conducting terawih prayers after the congregational 'isha prayers, starting at 8:45 pm. Dedicated spaces for female congregants will be made available at all mosques.

Attendance for both prayers must be reserved online. There will be a single booking window for the month, and congregants may book multiple times throughout Ramadhan. Congregants are advised to plan ahead, and to cancel their bookings if they are feeling unwell and unable to come. Bookings begin on 31 March 2022 at 10 am, with about 60,000 spaces available nightly.

Qiyam (قيام) and other activities

Qiyamullail (night prayers) will also be conducted at selected mosques during the last 10 days of Ramadan. No booking will be required, but qiyam sessions will end at 4:30 am. There will be no sleepover at mosques and pre-dawn meals will not be provided.

Mosques which are able to will also offer other activities such as tadarrus (تادرس القرآن, daily Quran reading), khatamul Quran and daily kuliah (lectures), with adherence to safe management plans similar to the daily prayers at mosques. Selected kuliahs at mosque will adopt a hybrid format, with the session being made available online through via SalamSG TV or mosques’ social media platforms.

To minimise risks of community transmission, as well as to remain within capacity limit for mosques, prayers during Ramadhan and Hari Raya Puasa (Eid) will be conducted within mosque premises, which will ensure proper adherence with the streamlined measures. Prayers previously held during pre-COVID times at void decks and other open areas will not be organised.

Support for low-income families

Zakat (زكاة) - alms - payment and disbursement activities will resume as per previous years at the mosque counters. Muslims are encouraged to continue paying zakat and making donations online. Zakat payment can be made via Zakat.sg, and the community can continue to donate to the centralised donation portal OurMasjid.SG to support mosque operational costs.

Zakat fitrah rates for Ramadan 2022 (1443) are S$5.10 (normal rate) and S$7.60 (higher rate) per person. Zakat fitrah will be collected on www.zakat.sg until 3 May, before the Eid prayer. Mosques will continue to support low-income households who are recipients of zakat assistance during Ramadhan. Social development officers and the network of mosque befrienders will continue to reach out to families on long-term zakat financial assistance. Zakat financial assistance will remain available from the 31 Social Development Mosques island-wide.

Safe resumption of religious life

The Office of the Mufti will release Ramadhan FAQs via social media to guide the Muslim community navigate Ramadhan through this endemic period. The social media posts will provide answers on religious queries and guidance as raised by the public such as queries on vaccinations and nasal swab test during Ramadhan.

Muis introduces 2022 zakat fitrah rates

The Islamic Religious Council of Singapore (Muis) has announced the 2022 zakat fitrah(زكاة الفطر) rates for Ramadhan 2022 (1443). The normal rate is pegged at S$5.10 and the higher rate at S$7.60. Zakat contributors should base their chosen rate on their daily consumption.

Zakat fitrah is an obligatory contribution by all Muslims during Ramadhan. It must be fulfilled during Ramadhan and before Aidilfitri (Eid) prayers. 

The amount is determined by the Muis Fitrah Committee based on the country’s staple food, which in Singapore's case is rice. The rates are derived from the median price of 2.3 kg for each grade of rice – normal and higher – as generally consumed by the local Muslim community. Higher grade rice refers to more expensive premium rice such as brown rice and basmati rice.

Recent global events such as the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war were taken into consideration, but the committee's assessments showed that prices of rice in Singapore have not been much affected thus far.

Muis highly encourages the Muslim community to fulfil their zakat fitrah and zakat harta obligations digitally to avoid long queues at the mosque during the COVID-19 pandemic. Digital payment methods include, for both zakat fitrah and zakat harta, zakat on wealth: 

- At the Zakat Singapore website using PayNow or debit card 

- Via banks

* DBS, POSB, PayLah app, or Internet banking at https://internet-banking.dbs.com.sg 

* CIMB Clicks at https://www.cimbclicks.com.sg

- AXS stations island-wide using NETS 

Muis will also accept cheques made payable to 'Muis'.   

For zakat harta only: 

- OCBC Al-Wadiah 

- Monthly instalments via GIRO (download the GIRO form at www.zakat.sg) 

From 6 April 2022 onwards, the public has also been able to utilise the following payment methods: 

- AXS m-Station app, available on the App Store, Google Play and Huawei AppGallery for download

- eNETS, DBS PayLah!, debit cards, NETSPay, OCBC PayAnyone 

- AXS e-Station

- eNETS, DBS PayLah!, debit cards, PayNow QR

To fulfil Zakat offline, the public is urged to exercise prudence in observing safe management measures (SMM) in place and to monitor their own health condition before heading down to Muis or authorised zakat collection centres, including selected mosques. A list of zakat collection centres can be found at the Zakat Singapore website (www.zakat.sg).

Users on the website are encouraged to read the security advisory on the home page to reduce the risk of being targeted by scammers. These features include:

- Accessing the authentic and secure Zakat Singapore website and payment portal

- Discerning legitimate communications from Zakat Singapore

- Learning to protect one’s zakat account 

- Recognising scams and phishing attempts

- Protecting oneself from scams and phishing attempts 

Muis introduced the two-tier zakat fitrah rate in 2005 to facilitate zakat contributors who may wish to contribute more than the normal rate (i.e., they consume higher-grade rice).

IFSB issues takaful regulation draft for public consultation

The Islamic Financial Services Board (IFSB) has issued the exposure draft (ED) of Core Principles for Islamic Finance Regulation (Takāful Segment) (ED-27) for public consultation for 60 days, till 23 June 2022. The IFSB invites comments from regulatory and supervisory authorities, international organisations, institutions offering Islamic financial services, academics and other interested parties.

The standard is intended to provide a set of takāful core principles (TCPs), closely aligned with the insurance core principles (ICPs, as adopted in November 2019), but with additions and modifications where necessary to reflect the application of sharī’ah principles in takāful. The aim is to provide an international benchmark to promote a sound regulatory and supervisory system and to maintain a fair, safe and stable takāful sector for the benefit and protection of the interests of takāful participants, beneficiaries and claimants as well as contributing to the stability of the Islamic financial system. The standard aims to:

- Provide an appropriate international standard for sound regulatory and supervisory practices specifically for the takāful sector;

- Enable policymakers and supervisors to self-assess the level of observance of principles and standards in the regulations;

- Identify areas for improvement and guide development of reform agendas and responses to emerging issues; and

- Provide a basis for peer review enabling objective external assessment by specialised bodies.

Core principles for regulation of the financial sector have become standard tools to guide regulatory and supervisory authorities (RSAs) in developing their regulatory regimes and practices. They also serve as the basis for regulatory authorities or external parties such as multilateral agencies to assess the strength and effectiveness of regulation and supervision in a jurisdiction. This standard intends to complement IAIS Insurance Core Principles (November 2019) to address areas that either do not deal, or deal inadequately, with the specifics of Islamic finance.

The IFSB envisages that the Core Principles for Islamic Finance Regulation (Takāful Segment) (CPIFR-Takāful) will be used by jurisdictions as a benchmark for assessing the quality of their regulatory and supervisory systems, and for identifying future work to achieve a baseline level of sound regulations and practices for takāful. Furthermore, the CPIFR-Takāful may also assist IFSB member jurisdictions in:

- Self-assessment

- Financial sector assessment as part of the Financial Sector Assessment Programme (FSAP) by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank

- Reviews conducted by private third parties; and

- Peer reviews conducted, for instance, within regional groupings of insurance RSAs.

This ED is complemented by a mapping table which helps to identify which provisions of the ED are specific to the takāful sector and have been added or modified, while also helping to identify the provisions that are common to both takāful and insurance that are closely aligned with the IAIS Insurance Core Principles.

A copy of ED-27 is available on the IFSB website. The Secretariat invites all interested parties, especially members of the IFSB, to send their comments to the IFSB through email to public_consultation@ifsb.org by 23 June 2022.

Revised IFSB shari'ah governance framework draft up for public consultation

The Islamic Financial Services Board (IFSB) has issued the exposure draft of the Joint IFSB-AAOIFI Revised Sharīʻah Governance Framework for Institutions Offering Islamic Financial Services (ED-RSGF) for public consultation. The draft will be available for 60 days, until 23 June 2022.

The aim of this joint IFSB-AAOIFI standard is to provide a revised set of guiding principles on the key components of a sound and effective sharīʻah governance framework for institutions offering Islamic financial services (IIFS). The standard aims to:

- Improve the quality of sharīʻah governance while optimising the costs by providing comprehensive guidance on minimum and best practices for various elements of sharī`ah governance;

- Help regulatory and supervisory authorities (RSAs) and IIFS fulfil their fiduciary responsibilities towards the various stakeholders regarding sharīʻah compliance and governance;

- Provide greater harmonisation of sharī`ah governance structures and practices across jurisdictions, especially since there are increasing numbers of IIFS with cross-border operations;

- Provide a higher level of transparency in sharī`ah compliance of an IIFS by standardising and streamlining the process of issuance and implementation of sharī`ah rulings and audit of the implementation of the same;

- Enhance public confidence in the sharī`ah compliance of IIFS and reduce the reputational risk of sharī`ah non-compliance through improved sharīʻah governance structure, greater transparency and more effective accountability; and complement the other standards issued by the IFSB and AAOIFI. 

This standard applies to IIFS (including Islamic windows) in the Islamic banking, takāful (Islamic insurance) and Islamic capital market sectors. RSAs may choose to apply this standard to other IIFS in their jurisdictions. The standard adopts a principle-plus-rule approach that provides a comprehensive set of sharīʻah governance practices for implementing each principle. 

Details:

The IFSB invites comments from regulatory and supervisory authorities, international organisations, institutions offering Islamic financial services, academics, sharīʻah scholars, and other interested parties. Online public hearings will be conducted as part of the public consultation process. Participation in the public hearing is free and open to all. The dates will be announced in due course. 

The soft copy of ED-RSGF is available on the IFSB website. The Secretariat invites all interested parties, especially members of the IFSB, to send their comments to the IFSB through email to public_consultation@ifsb.org by 23 June 2022.
