Qualified Finance Function & Oversight

Assessing whether the organization has a finance function (in-house or outsourced) with appropriate qualifications, experience, and governance oversight, it ensures that staff or providers possess the necessary competence for financial management, compliance (including fraud and data protection), and strategic planning, supported by active board-level financial expertise. This reflects the Islamic principle of kafa'ah (competence) and the maqasid objective of hifz al-mal (preservation of wealth), ensuring institutional resources are diligently safeguarded as a sacred amanah (trust).
