Why is Letter of Appointment
Important?
Recent changes in the political, social
landscape and most importantly, a need
to aspire towards sound Islamic
principles, values and ideals have
called for an assessment as to how Imâms,
Muezzins and Teachers of Islamic Dîn
("the individuals") are treated and
acknowledged. The
Letter of Appointment
ensures that such employees are treated
with fairness at all times.

Agreement for Dispute Resolution
While the Letter of Appointment
safeguards against ill-treatment of
Imâms, Muezzins and Teachers of Islamic
Dîn as indicated above, conflict
maybe inevitable.
An Agreement of Dispute Resolution
provides a mechanism through which
disputes due (but not limited) to
misunderstandings between employee and
employer can be resolved amicably
without recourse to litigation.

Not-for-Profit Organisation/Public
Benefit Organisation (NPO/PBO)
Historically, non-profit organisations
were granted some degree of preferential
lax treatment and donor incentives.
Religious, charitable and educational
institutions were specifically exempt
from income and related taxes.
Following recommendations by the Katz
Commission, the Minister of Finance, in
his 2000 Budget Speech, announced
wide-ranging changes to the legislation
regulating the tax exemption of
nonprofit organisations. These laws are
bound to impact on every Masjid,
Madrasah, Muslim School, Darul Uloom and
other community organisations.
Tax exemption will now only be granted
to organisations that qualify as a
Public Benefit Organisation (PBO). How
do organisations qualify for this
status? Please follow the link below
