A poignant picture

I was in a complete shock while browsing thru Utusan Online today. The picture of a solemn and grave 8 childrens makes me feel so heartbreaking. A poignant picture which tells a hundred sad stories in the last of week of Ramadhan makes me wonder how many of them in Malaysia.
It makes me so mad; I mean where all this Jabatan Masyarakat, this Zakat management, does they know their job. Obviously, there a millions of bucks sitting in the bank untouched. This is the right time for us to donate and help to ease their burden. Why the media still need to highlight their stories in order to get a bowl of rice.

It is truly a big responsibility for the Zakat board to really reach out to the needy person instead of the media people who actually manage to find one, an amanah which is inevitable. Yes, I can donate, like most of Malaysians, we have no qualms at all to give out alms but then we also pay zakat, and hoping that our money will be used for a good cause.

May allah bless these siblings in Yan, Kedah.
