Questions around this news
What services does the ikhlas.com platform offer?
According to the release, the platform offers Umrah and Muslim-friendly travel services, including offerings developed with subsidiary airline AirAsia. It also facilitates religious and charitable activities such as zakat, sadaqah, aqiqah, fidyah and qurban. The company describes the platform as designed to help Muslims carry out religious obligations.
What is zakat?
Zakat is a form of obligatory almsgiving in Islam. Eligible Muslims give a portion of qualifying wealth to people or causes entitled to receive it, according to religious rules. It is distinct from voluntary charity, though both involve giving to support others and communities.
What is Umrah?
Umrah is an Islamic pilgrimage to the holy city of Mecca. Unlike the Hajj, which is required of eligible Muslims once in their lifetime and takes place at a set time, Umrah can generally be performed at other times of the year. It involves a series of devotional rites.
