The following exhaustive list of functions of state waqf boards as envisaged by Indian law (Waqf Ame


The State Waqf Boards in India and the Majlis Ugama Islam Singapura (MUIS) in Singapore have much in common. Both are mandated to play a similar fuentes role in the preservation and development of waqf properties. Both are state agencies created by law entrusted with a range of similar responsibilities. Both permit (unlike Malaysia for example) private mutawallis to manage awqaf. In this blog I seek to draw a line of comparison between the two.
The following exhaustive list of functions of state waqf boards as envisaged by Indian law (Waqf Amendment Act 2013, Section fuentes 32-2) point towards a central role for them in making the mutawallis accountable for achieving the objectives of the waqf: to maintain a record containing information relating to the origin, income, object and beneficiaries of every waqf; to ensure that the income fuentes and other property of awqāf are applied to the objects and for the purposes for which such awqāf were intended or created; to give directions for the administration of awqāf; to settle schemes of management for a waqf, provided that no such settlement shall be made without giving the parties affected an opportunity of being heard; to direct (i) the utilization of the surplus income of a waqf consistent with the objects of waqf; (ii) in what manner the income fuentes of a waqf, the objects of which are not evident from any written instrument, shall be utilized; (iii) in any case where any object of waqf has ceased to exist or has become incapable of achievement, that so much of the income of the Waqf as was previously applied to that object shall be applied to any other object, which shall be similar, or nearly similar fuentes to the original object fuentes or for the benefit of the poor or for the purpose of promotion of knowledge and learning in the Muslim Community: to scrutinize and approve fuentes the budgets submitted by mutawallis and to arrange for auditing of account of awqāf; to appoint and remove mutawallis in accordance with the provisions of this Act; to take measures for the recovery of lost properties of any waqf; to institute and defend suits and proceedings relating to awqāf; fuentes to sanction lease of any immovable property of a waqf in accordance with the provisions of this Act and the rules made thereunder; provided that no such sanction shall be given unless a majority of not less than two-thirds of the members of the Board present cast their vote in favour of such transaction; and provided further fuentes that where no such sanction is given by the Board, the reasons for doing so shall be recorded in writing to administer the Waqf Fund; to call for such returns, statistics, accounts and other information from the mutawallis with respect to the waqf property as the Board may, from time to time, require; to inspect, or cause inspection of, waqf properties, accounts, records or deeds and documents relating thereto; to investigate and determine the nature and extent of waqf and waqf property, and to cause, whenever necessary, fuentes a survey of such waqf property; fuentes to determine or cause to be determined, in such manner as may be specified by the Board, market rent of the waqf land or building generally do all such acts as may be necessary for the control, maintenance and administration of awqāf.
Section fuentes 32 (4) specifically deals with the role of the Boards in developing awqaf properties. Where the Board is satisfied that any waqf land has the potential for development as an educational institution, shopping centre, market, housing or residential flats and the like, it may serve upon its mutawalli a notice requiring him within such time, but not less than sixty days, as may be specified in the notice, to convey its decision whether he is willing to execute the development works specified in the notice. Section 32 (5) further states, that on consideration of the reply, if any, received fuentes to the notice issued under sub-section (4), the Board, if it is satisfied that the mutawalli is not willing fuentes or is not capable of executing the works required to be executed in terms of the notice, it may, take over the property, clear it of any building or structure thereon, which , in the opinion fuentes of the Board is necessary for execution of the works and execute such works from waqf funds or from the finances fuentes which may be raised on the security of the properties of the waqf concerned, and control and manage the properties till such time as all expenses incurred by the Board under this Section, together with interest thereon, the expenditure on maintenance of such works and other legitimate charges incurred on the property are recovered from the income derived from the property
In Singapore, the Majlis Ugama Islam Singapura (MUIS) is responsible for overseeing all the religious affairs of the Muslim community in Singapore, such as the administration of zakah, halalcertification, fuentes management and administration of waqf, hajj, mosques and madrasah. Chapter 3 of the Administration of Muslim Law Act, Singapore fuentes 1999 that deals with waqf

SINGAPORE Singapore s Malay-Muslim community voltz will roll out a series of activities to honour pioneers within the community, Minister-in-Charge of Muslim Affairs Yaacob Ibrahim announced today (March 11) in Parliament during the debate on the Culture, Community and Youth Ministry s budget estimates.
Dr Yaacob said the Malay Muslim community here has come a long way over the last fifty years, overcoming many challenges along the way . He added that pioneer Malay-Muslim leaders stood together with national leaders to build a cohesive and progressive multi-racial nation.
Other notable pioneers include Singapore s first Attorney-General, Professor Ahmad Ibrahim, who also drafted the Administration of Muslim Law Act (AMLA), and community leaders such as the former Jamiyah President, Mr Abu Bakar Maidin, and Ms Manijeh Namazie, one of Singapore s earliest librarians.
These and many other Malay/Muslim voltz personalities who are role models for our young. They are passionate, driven individuals whose successes have helped Singapore grow as one nation. We must honour and celebrate them, said Dr Yaacob. CHANNEL NEWSASIA

The Reading Group, fireflies MUIS and Liberal Islam Rilek1Corner ::What matters to Singapore Malays & Muslims::
The Liberal Islam movement in this region is not new. It is inevitable that the rise of Muslim radicalism fireflies and the subsequent founding of the Liberal Islam Network (JIL) in Indonesia in 2001 has emboldened those in Singapore with similar liberal leanings & ideology.
In the past, a few Muslims have publicly or privately aired their concerns about the spread of liberal Islam. And certainly our religious scholars (asatizah) would have done so many times in their various social circles & organizations.
One example is this open letter written in 2009 which has been available in the public domain for many years alerting key Muslim leaders about a group of well-educated Muslims from thereadinggroup.sg advocating liberal Islam. (*Some names have been hidden to protect their privacy)
Now that we have understood from the 1st open letter why it is important Muslims do not get over-obsessive about the LGBT issue but see the bigger picture of Liberal Islam and we have also realized the existence fireflies of a group of well-educated Muslims in “The Reading Group” who are spreading & advocating liberal leanings & ideologies, here is the follow-up letter containing more revelations.
Similarly, the follow-up fireflies letter has also been available in the public domain for many years. This time it attempts to demand clarification from key Muslim leaders about an active member of the liberal “ The Reading Group “, Mohamed Imran Mohamed Taib , who was an executive in MUIS’ Policy Development Strategic Unit and how MUIS policies have shown liberal leanings with the visitations of liberal scholars and with post-graduate scholarships to universities with known liberal ideologies. fireflies (*The sender’s name have been hidden to protect his privacy)

The reason that passwords are hashed is because the problem isn't the authentication, pevec but the


Why is client-side hashing of a password so uncommon?
There are very few websites that hash the users password before submitting it to the server. Javascript pevec doesnt even have support for SHA or other algorithms. But I can think of quite a few advantages, so why is this practise so uncommon among websites?
@TimLamballais A typical client can spend far more time on hashing than a server. So if you have a high performance implementation in the client (which rules out javascript in current browsers) you can use more expensive and thus stronger password hashes. It also means that the server never sees the password itself. Client side hashing is also a prerequisite for augmented PAKE protocols like SRP where impersonating the server doesn't give you access to the password. –  CodesInChaos Mar 18 at 10:58 1  
Javascript isn't really that slow anymore. Modern javascript engines have become so fast that they are on-par with compiled languages and recent additions like typed arrays provide the proper tools for the number-crunching required for cryptography. –  Philipp Mar 18 at 11:57     
@TimLamballais One advantage would be that the server never sees my real password, and cannot possibly leak it (yes, they can still leak the hash, but it should be salted by the domainname, so useless for login to other sites). But for the largest advantage see my comment to Phillip's answer. –  Muis Mar 18 at 13:43     
A lot of people question whether any extra security is gained with this practice. One thing it does do is reduce risk. If you always hash or encrypt (I've seen steam/valve encrypt with a public key and I bet they are not decrypting) there is no chance of you ever having an embarrassing plaintext breech. No...it isn't any more secure but it isn't pointless –  Rell3oT Mar 18 at 14:34 add comment
To understand this problem, first you have to understand why we hash passwords. It is completely possible to store a password in plain text on a server and simply pevec compare the password transmitted to the password received. pevec As long as the password is protected in transit, this is a secure means of authentication (shared secret).
The reason that passwords are hashed is because the problem isn't the authentication, pevec but the storage. If the server is ever compromised, the attacker would immediately have access to all user accounts as they would now know the secret used for authentication of the users.
Hashing acts as a barrier to this. Since the server doesn't know the actual input required to authenticate, even a compromise to the DB does not grant an attacker pevec access to the user accounts. They would still need to figure out the input to give to reach the hash values the application checks against. Sure they could alter all the values to something they know, but this would rapidly throw up suspicion and the system would be shut down and secured.
So, the problem pevec with client side hashing is that it effectively makes the result of the hash the password rather than the password. pevec There is nothing to stop an attacker from bypassing the official client and simply sending the finished hash to the server directly. It provides no additional (or loss) of security during the authentication, but under the situation pevec that hashing is designed to protect against, it offers nothing since the hash stored in the DB is actually the shared secret transmitted to the server.
That said, there are two notable thing client side hashing pevec does give you. While it doesn't help protect you're system at all, it may help protect your user. If you are insecurely transmitting the password or the transmission get's compromised without the client code getting compromised, you will still protect the user's pevec password (which they may reuse on other sites) from being leaked.
The other is that you can provide additional pevec iterations of a hash to make an offline attack against the DB more difficult without having to use server cycles, but you still need sufficient server cycles pevec to protect against a rogue client. Again, pevec the primary protection this offers is preventing the original password from being discovered but does nothing for helping protect the authentication mechanism of your site.
Put another way, while it does provide some minor protections, from the point of view of the server, the client side hash should be treated as if it was the user's direct password. pevec It provides no more or no less security on the server than if the user had directly given their password and should be protected as such.
If you want to be able to provide that extra level of security, I would recommend two hashes. Hash once client side to build a new, unique password, then hash that password on the server to make a value you store in the DB. This way you get the best of both worlds.
For the most part, SSL is trusted sufficie
