The thirty-fourth weekly meeting of the Academy’s department directors was held on Monday 12 Dhul Qi’dah 1442, corresponding to 21 June 2021.
The Secretary General of the Academy opened the meeting by welcoming the participants and then spoke about the proposal he made to the State of Indonesia regarding Islamic social finance, which is part of Islamic social representation, and includes non-profit financial institutions in Islam, such as the institutions of Zakat, Waqf, Wills, Compensations and Vows.
His Excellency explained the importance of this type of Islamic financing, which has not received its due share of research and study, hence the urgency to consolidate this field, formulate its legal provisions and develop the wealth that emanates from it.
His Excellency affirmed the readiness of the Academy to cooperate and participate in this field, which was welcomed and requested to be included in the twenty-fifth session, along with two other topics, including digital currencies and fatwas of halal concerning food, medicine, cosmetics, perfumes, etc.
The meeting resulted in several decisions, notably:
-Preparing a booklet containing all the resolutions and recommendations issued by the Academy regarding family, women, children and the elderly, to be presented at the eighth ministerial conference for women in Cairo.
-Organize a visit to the permanent representations of the Republic of Pakistan, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the Federal Republic of Somalia and the Director of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Jeddah.
-Upload the scientific lectures and audio-visual contents of the Academy online.
