The government has given RM200 credit to youth aged 18 to 20, including IPT students since the beginning of this week. Credits are given through TNG eWallet, Setel, and Boost digital wallets. The government provides it in an effort to help ease the burden on the youth, while at the same time allowing it to be used at physical stores that support DuitNow QR.
However, there are also some irresponsible parties that offer the service of withdrawing the money in the form of cash or transfer to a bank account. The matter already violates the purpose and also the conditions set by the government.
Commenting further, Dr Zulkifli Mohamad Al-Bakri (former WP Mufti), said that if a gift is tied to the terms of the agreement, then it must be complied with. It is illegal for the individual who received the aid to use the RM200 in a prohibited way.
Commenting further, Dr. Zulkifli also stated "Sheikh al-Qalyubi gave a warning against this problem, he said that when the donor gives for a specific purpose, then the recipient is not allowed to use the donation for other purposes.". Besides that, syar'a also forbids believers from breach of trust.
For eBelia Rahmah recipients, you are advised to use the credit received according to the conditions that have been set. Further reading on Dr.'s comments. Zulkifli can be read through Maktabah Al-Bakri website.
