A FAMILY of 10 received a donation of $2,000 yesterday from the Brunei Islamic Religious Council (MUIB) after losing their home in Kg Lorong Dalam, Kg Ayer to a fire on October 5.
During a ceremony at the Ministry of Religious Affairs, Acting MUIB Secretary Hj Abd Aziz Hj Akop handed over the zakat money to the head of the family, Bolariffin Abd Ghani.
In a statement, MUIB said it hopes the donation will help alleviate the family’s burden and that the family will be more careful and vigilant in the future as it will help ensure their safety.
