A forensic audit of the Tabung Haji (TH) is set to begin soon, with officials aiming to complete the process within a year, according to a recent statement by Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin. The audit, which will involve a comprehensive and continuous review of the institution’s operations, comes amid growing scrutiny over the handling of religious content related to the RCI (Rumah Kebajikan Islam) issue.
The controversy surrounding the use of Quranic verses in the RCI matter has sparked public debate, with some accusing TH of misinterpreting religious texts. The audit is expected to examine whether such practices align with Islamic teachings and whether they have been properly justified. The government has emphasized the need for transparency and accountability in the management of TH’s funds and religious activities.
The forensic audit will be conducted by independent experts to ensure objectivity. It is part of broader efforts to restore public trust in TH, which has faced criticism over financial mismanagement and ethical concerns. The outcome of the audit could have significant implications for the organization’s future operations and its relationship with religious authorities.
Sources indicate that the audit will be a key step in addressing concerns raised by both the public and religious leaders. The process is expected to provide clarity on the role of religious texts in administrative decisions and how they are applied in practice.
