UPM SERDANG, SEPT 2 - The Waqf, Zakat and Endowment Management Center (WAZAN), UPM launched a maximum zakat campaign from 1 September 2022 until 31 December 2022.

This campaign aims to provide an opportunity for zakat payers at UPM to determine the amount of zakat contribution paid to the Selangor Zakat Board by taking the opportunity to pay as Malaysians through the scheduled tax deduction (PCB) that is deducted on a monthly basis.



This campaign also aims to empower zakat collection to an optimal level in ensuring that 50% of the successful collection will be returned to UPM and be able to help more students through aid and donation programs.

According to the Director of WAZAN UPM, Prof. Associate Dr. Mohd Daud Awang, "This campaign is a fair program for all zakat payers at UPM, this is because many zakat payers pay zakat through the conversion of PCB to high zakat every month", he said when commenting on the maximum zakat campaign at the WAZAN office last week .

"This campaign can be a pilot project for us to reach 90% of zakat payers through the monthly salary deduction scheme (SPG) among UPM staff who are eligible to pay zakat", he said.

In this campaign as well, WAZAN UPM provides five lucky draw prizes in the form of Umrah packages and cash for those who participate in this campaign.
