Tijarah Holding Ltd. (Tijarah), an innovative blockchain developer responsible for Maal Blockchain (MaalChain) and an accredited Islamic Digital Asset Service Provider (IDASP) with its headquarters in Labuan, Malaysia, is delighted to announce its philanthropic initiative. This initiative involves contributing Hibah & Waqaf to the Islamic foundation known as Yayasan NU Maal Jatim (NUMJ), which was established to promote the philanthropic initiatives for the benefit of Pengurus Wilayah Nahdlatul Ulama (PWNU) members in active participation of digital transformation, leveraging on MaalChain.

PWNU is a regional board of Nahdlatul Ulama in East Java, Indonesia. Nahdlatul Ulama is recognized as the worlds largest independent Islamic organization, with a reported membership of 60 million in Indonesia and an additional 30 million outside the country (Source: https://brill.com). This pioneering initiative, aimed at contributing Hibah & Waqaf to NUMJ, is strategically positioned to harness the potential of blockchain technology and the MaalChain ecosystem, ultimately benefiting the extensive and diverse PWNU community at large.

Under the Hibah initiative, Tijarah, in collaboration with PWNU, aims to enhance social welfare on MaalChain by promoting the active participation of selected members, to enlarge the talent pool. NUMJ will play a crucial role in identifying deserving individuals for development and actively engage their community members in promoting NUMJ initiatives on MaalChain. Currently, 5 million users are preparing to engage with MaalChain to develop NFTs that showcase Indonesian arts, talents, and traditions on the Islamic digital marketplace known as PanSea, which forms an integral part of the MaalChain ecosystem. This remarkable growth in user engagement positions MaalChain as one of the fastest growing blockchains to enhance its utility in ecosystems. Whats even more noteworthy is that this user base will surge to 10 million participants within the next 18 months based on the agreement with NUMJ.

PWNU and NUMJ are actively engaged in providing expertise and guidance aimed at enhancing Shariah compliance within the MaalChain ecosystem. Their focus extends not only to Indonesia but also encompasses potential international Islamic fintech solutions seeking Shariah compliance within MaalChain. This contribution is pivotal to the task of ensuring Shariah compliance, which is a requirement for review and classification under the Islamic Digital Asset Classification Standard set to be issued by NCVC, which will be the DLT Asset Evaluators (https://www.ncrics.com/).
