Foreword
Accolades rest upon humble beginnings... South African Muslims enjoy an admirable legacy on the tip of Africa of having been able to survive the ravages of global changes and maintained their heritage for well over three centuries. Many factors have played a part in upholding the identity of this minority community, foremost among them are the various institutions which continue to serve their diverse needs. The South African National Halaal Authority is a pioneer organisation that has, over the many years of its service and dedication, made groundbreaking strides and earned accolades from around the globe. Its model of service and excellence in the field of halal monitoring is not only being replicated but is revered by many, even those in Muslim majority countries. All praise is due to Allah! This quest for excellence and acclaim brings hidden within its wings certain growing pains which cannot be overlooked. A Muslim never loses sight of attributing his/her accomplishment to the Almighty and is ever cautious against the onslaught of the Devil who persistently attempts to veer him/her off the path of success. At the pinnacle moment of triumph and achievement in the life of the Final Messenger of Allah sallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam, which was marked by the Conquest of Makkah, believers are reminded of the lesson of humility and subservience to Allah. In Surah Nasr (Chapter 110), Allah exhorts Nabi Muhammad sallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam with the words, “...celebrate the praises of thy Lord, and pray for His Forgiveness.” Never does a Muslim take his/her circumstance of success and recognition for granted. As we climb up the ladder of triumph, let’s always keep our eye on the ground from which we had taken that very first step. Humility begets more progress, while a sense of pride is the stepping stone to the downward curve. Humility warrants appreciation for the roles played by each component of the society. We “celebrate the praise of Allah” by standing shoulder to shoulder and complementing the contributions of others in building a stronger Ummah. As the organisation celebrates another year of excellent service to the Ummah, we beseech Almighty Allah to grant it the strength and fortitude to progress to even greater heights and to protect it from the assault of egos and the whispers of the Devil and adversaries. Moulana Ebrahim Bham Secretary General Jamiatul Ulama South Africa
SANHA ANNUAL REPORT 1440/2018 8
Chairman’s Address
THE FOURTH INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION
All praise is due to Allah and may His choicest salutations continue to descend on our Master and
Leader Mohamed (saw).
“Surely, In the creation of the heavens and the earth; in the alternation of the night and the day, in the
sailing of the ships through the ocean for the profit of mankind; in the rain which Allah sends down from
the skies, with which He revives the earth after its death and spreads in it all kinds of animals, in the
change of the winds and the clouds between the sky and the earth that are made subservient, there are
signs for rational people.” (Qur’an: 2:164).
We live in a rapidly changing world characterised by an incredible speed, scope, and pace of
transformation. So fast is the pace of change that 65% of children entering primary school today will
ultimately end up working in completely new job types that don’t yet exist. (McLeod, Scott and Karl
Fisch, “Shift Happens”) We are at the cusp of what is called the ‘fourth industrial revolution’ which is
going to profoundly change the way we work, earn, live and function.
Industrial Revolutions
The First Industrial Revolution (1760-1840) resulted in a shift from reliance on animals and human effort
to the use of steam, fossil fuels and mechanical power.
The Second Industrial Revolution which occurred between the end of the 19th century and the first two
decades of the 20th century brought major breakthroughs in the form of electricity distribution, and new
forms of power generation.
The Third Industrial Revolution began in the 1950s with the development of digital systems,
communication and rapid advances in computing power, which opened up new ways of generating,
processing and sharing information.
The Fourth Industrial Revolution is the fusion of technologies that is breaking down the limits
between the digital, physical, and biological spheres. This has resulted in the use of artificial
intelligence, advanced robotics and 3-D printing.
“The Fourth Industrial Revolution, finally, will change not only what we do but also who we are. It will
affect our identity and all the issues associated with it: our sense of privacy, our notions of ownership,
our consumption patterns, the time we devote to work and leisure, and how we develop our careers,
cultivate our skills, meet people, and nurture relationships.”— (Klaus Schwab - The Fourth Industrial
Revolution)
Artificial Intelligence (AI)
“Robots are faster than humans, more precise; they don’t tire and don’t need lunch breaks”
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the simulation of human intelligence by machines. In other words, it is the
9 SANHA ANNUAL REPORT 1440/2018
method by which machines demonstrate certain aspects of human intelligence like learning, reasoning and
self- correction. The rise of artificial intelligence, robotics and other digital developments is displacing
the pre-eminence of human expertise in the economy.
In 2017 companies spent around $22bn on AI-related mergers and acquisitions, about 26 times more than
in 2015.In tomorrow’s workplace, many routine jobs now performed by workers will increasingly be
assumed by machines, leaving more complicated tasks to humans who see the big picture and possess
interpersonal skills.
When Will the Future Arrive?
According to the World Economic Forum Technology Tipping Points and Societal Impact report, the
following technology tipping points could occur by 2025:
10% of people wearing clothes connected to the Internet
The first robotic pharmacist in the US
The first 3D-printed car in production
5% of consumer products printed in 3D
90% of the population with regular access to the Internet
Driverless cars equalling 10% of all cars on US roads
The first transplant of a 3D-printed liver
Over 50% of Internet traffic to homes for appliances and devices
The first city with more than 50,000 people and no traffic lights
The first AI machine on a corporate board of directors
Forecasts for 2025 include:
30% of corporate audits will be performed by artificial intelligence.
Globally, more trips will be made using car sharing programs than privately owned cars
Brain-reading devices allows wearers to learn new skills quicker
Smart kitchens that turn cooking into an interactive experience enter the marketplace
Automated construction will replace human workers
Organizational Adaptability
The Fourth Industrial Revolution is going to demand adaptive capabilities from businesses, service
providers and organizations. Organizational Adaptability is going to become a matter of corporate life or
death. Examples of corporate ‘death’ include companies like Toys “R” Us, Blockbuster, Kodak, and
BlackBerry. Their demise was not on account of their inability to market themselves, nor the quality of
their customer services, nor the strength of their internal operations. It was precisely because of their
failure to adapt to a rapidly changing environment.
Adaptability Quotient (AQ)
The exponential speed, breadth, and depth of change are going to redefine how we manage and lead our
organizations. The constant integration of technology in everyday life is powering major changes in both
the corporate world and in our personal lives. AQ, or adaptability quotient, is something that is becoming
increasingly prevalent as more and more leaders are talking about the constant change their organizations
SANHA ANNUAL REPORT 1440/2018 10
and their industries are undergoing. Some of today's best known thought-leaders are proposing entirely
new executive roles so companies can keep abreast of change. “I think every organization should have a
Chief Adaptability Officer. Too much is changing in the world, and you need someone who is intentional
about tracking and adapting to change,” (Amin Toufani - CEO of T Labs)
The Adaptability Quotient (AQ) has emerged as a key factor for businesses to be able to navigate this new
world - a world where continual disruption and volatility is “business as usual”. The challenge will be to
adapt in real-time to all the external indicators that herald in these changes. At the centre of this new
paradigm is the ability for individuals to be highly adaptive through learning, unlearning and relearning in
a world where existing baselines continually shift.
Worldview of Muslim Scientists
The worldview of Muslims scientists was inspired by the Qur’anic verse that says: “Surely, In the creation
of the heavens and the earth; in the alternation of the night and the day, in the sailing of the ships through
the ocean for the profit of mankind; in the rain which Allah sends down from the skies, with which He
revives the earth after its death and spreads in it all kinds of animals, in the change of the winds and the
clouds between the sky and the earth that are made subservient, there are signs for rational
people.”(2:164).
The earlier Muslim scientific investigations were based on the inherent link between the physical and the
spiritual spheres; they were informed by a process of careful observation and reflection that investigated
the physical universe through the prism of the spiritual world. Muslims made significant contributions,
including art, architecture, science, math, medicine, astronomy, chemistry, physics, navigation,
geography, literature, and philosophy, among countless other fields. Invention and innovation were very
much part of the DNA of Muslim scientists. According to the famous scientist Albert Einstein; “Science
without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind.” Francis Bacon, the famous philosopher, has
rightly said that a little knowledge of science makes you an atheist, but an in-depth study of science makes
you a believer in God.”
Conclusion
The exponential speed, breadth, and depth of change are going to redefine who we are and how we live.
The constant integration of technology in everyday life is powering major changes in every sphere of our
lives. We can only meaningfully embrace the future if we draw on the collective wisdom of people across
all sectors and stakeholder groups, taking responsibility for shaping a future that reflects values and ethical
principles within a religious and moral framework.

Secretarial Report
All praise is for Allah the All Merciful, the Most Merciful. May his choicest blessing and salutation be upon the Final Messenger Muhammad, upon his noble family, illustrious companions and his followers till the last day. As another year comes to a close we are indebted to our staff members, executive and management members as well as our well-wishers all of whom contribute tirelessly towards the running of SANHA in support of the Mission of this Halaal Organisation. As the Secretary, I must acknowledge that the challenges of this position could not have been met without the support and assistance of my colleagues and experienced seniors as this year has seen many administrative challenges and a more active Role played by the Office bearers together with the Executive Board and Trustees. Once again we have encountered exponential growth this last period under review, this has brought about new challenges as we had to make additional manpower and physical space available to match the increase output required. Our Johannesburg office space has been increased with an additional floor being leased at the current site. For the first time we have set up an HR department to deal with staffing issues as we continue to grow we need to match service delivery and maintain service levels throughout the organization. The Management board had appointed subcommittees to look deeper into operations and out of those deliberations implementation of new structures and policies has been put into play to ensure a smoother operational running of the organization and instill better governance for the organization. The Trustees have now begun taking a more participatory role, in today’s legal and economic environment in our country statutory changes with regards to governance and obligations of members has led to some necessary changes to the Trust Deed of SANHA. Developing our Halaal system remains a priority. The core thrust of SANHA’s activity has always been to create Halaal awareness among all role players, make Halaal products widely accessible thereby securing and preserving the right of Muslims to consume Halaal. Whilst we continue to expand our global reach of activities we are always mindful to continue to strive in our own constituency to ensure we honour our commitment to our followers and the industry in South Africa. Notwithstanding the fact that an AGM, which is of a procedural formal forum is generally attended by organizational members only. The participation and presence of the broader community members is therefore indeed encouraging. May Allah reward you all for your attendance and support. Operational detail information will be presented in the Theological Directors Report, Inshâ-Allah! In conclusion, I must acknowledge that our progress is based on Divine favour and the talent, dedication and commitment of the people who drive SANHA, its staff. The selfless sacrifices and sincere contribution of my fellow Executives who render their services on a pro bono basis is also worthy of note. May Allah reward you all well and May He forgive our shortcomings. Aameen! RIAZ JALAL
SANHA ANNUAL REPORT 1440/2018 12
Theological Committee Report
Glory be to Allah the Legislator of Halaal and Haraam, and may His Choicest Salawaat and Salaam be upon Khayrul Anaam, the leader of all Prophets, Nabi Muhammad ‘alayhis salaam, who was sent as a guide unto Jinn and Insaan. Making headlines daily with parliamentary hearings, judicial enquiries and newspaper exposes, State capture is systemic political corruption in where private interests influence the state’s decision-making processes to their own advantage. Small corrupt groups and individuals use their influence over dishonest state officials to appropriate government decision making for their own gains. Islam prohibits all forms of corruption and combatting it is an integral part of Islamic teachings. Corruption is Haraam; an infernal curse that eats away at the moral fibre of a nation. By egregious abuse of power and unadulterated greed, the corrupt elite bereft of any sense of ethics and morality, rob the poorest of the poor. Islam has a zero tolerance on officials accepting bribes. “The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) cursed the one who offers the bribe and the one who receives it.” (Tirmidhi) Similarly, as Muslims we need to be aware and cognisant of the relentless state of capture by nafs and shaytaan. These two entities are continuously on the prowl to ensnare the believers and distract us from our core objective of submission to the Will of Allah Ta’ala in the various facets of life including consumption. Indeed, SANHA operates in a very dynamic environment and as an organisation we continuously are required to navigate through various challenges to remain relevant. The Halaal regulatory space is becoming increasingly challenging, competitive and to some extent unpredictable. Navigating in such environment requires coherency in strategy and leadership that will keep SANHA adaptable whilst safeguarding and protecting its core mission of Halaal assurance to the consumer. Activity Report
Alhamdulillah, notwithstanding the various challenges faced by the organisation from within and without, we remain in the position to report a year of significant progress and notable achievement. Ulama Leadership
Though for purposes of inclusivity and broader holistic participation and contribution to the course, non-Ulama components were invited to be part of SANHA, members will testify that this service requires the expert guidance, direction and oversight of those who have acquired ‘ilme-Deen and understand the perimeters of the lawful and unlawful. Furthermore, the Muslim Ummah recognise and acknowledge Halaal as a Shar’iy dictum thus rely on the word of the Scholars for comfort and assurance in this facet of life. Executive & Management Board
A total of five meetings were held between the two organs of SANHA in the past period. The Management Board bears responsibility for strategy implementation and oversight of the operations of SANHA in accordance with the policies and guidelines put forth by the Executive. Annual General Meeting
Alhamdulillah, SANHA has remained true to its commitment of transparency and accountability by hosting Annual General Meetings which are open to the public and together with its ‘Activity Report’, Audited Financial Statements are also presented. The 2017 AGM was hosted at the Nur-ul Islam Conference Centre in Lenasia on Saturday, 11th November. Alhamdulillah, SANHA had the good fortune
13 SANHA ANNUAL REPORT 1440/2018
of conferring the Community Recognition Award upon the JUSA President and Ameer, Hazrat Moulana Abbas Ali Jeena. New Certification
Notwithstanding the recessionary climate being experienced, between the three SANHA offices, a total of 353 new applications were received during the period under review which averages at 30 applications each month. 55% of these applications were fielded by the Gauteng office whilst the KZN and Western Cape Offices processed 23% and 22% respectively. During the said period, a total of 123 certified companies were delisted either due to breach, closure or wilful termination by the parties. Audit Department
The most challenging and daunting task at SANHA is the ongoing maintenance and upkeep of the Halaal program at Halaal certified establishments. The integrity and credibility of SANHA squarely rests on the shoulders of this department. Monitoring and ensuring that plants abide by and uphold the requirements set out is indeed the most arduous responsibility. Selection of the most able and competent staff in this area cannot be adequately emphasised. Compared to the previous year’s figure of 13 512, the total number of audits conducted by SANHA in the period under review is a total of 15 531. Alhamdulillah, there has been a 97,79% completion rate achieved in the period which is an improvement from the previous period by 1,79%. Human Resources
SANHA currently has a staff count of 130 odd persons under its direct employ and an equal member or more indirect appointments. An HR Consultancy company has been appointed to review and upgrade HR management systems and processes which include but is not limited to: establishing employment relations, appraising KPI’s, measuring performance, coordinating recruitment and selection, facilitating training and development, managing occupational health and safety, dealing with conflict resolution etc. A major challenge is being faced with foreign employees who do not have legal documentation to work in SA. These employees mainly serve in the capacity of slaughtermen at abattoirs. Locals do not want to opt for this position due to the low salary offered for this vocation. Outreach Programmes
SANHA holds programs at various schools, madrasahs and Masaajid mainly upon request from these institutions. These programs serve to strengthen the link between the communities and also mainly serve to create awareness and empower them with the details of developments in the Halaal arena, SANHA’s certification criteria and addressing myths & rumours that are prevalent. Programs were held in the following venues in the period:
Benoni Muslim School
Qurtuba Muslim School
East London – community program
Queenstown – community program
Al Falaah School, Durban
Soweto Masjid – Ulama program
SANHA ANNUAL REPORT 1440/2018 14
SANHA Logo Fraud
This problem continues to present itself on a frequent basis. Much time is expanded in dealing with these encounters. Fortunately, in 95% of the instances, we are able to resolve the matter without legal intervention. The misrepresentation, confusion and action required to deal with these violations however remains a major challenge. Passing off’ of the SANHA logo has also become increasingly rampant. This is when a part or parts of the logo or the logo design is used without the full logo being copied. To combat this, SANHA has submitted 27 certification mark applications in the applicable classes to the Registrar of Trademarks in a bid to be able to contain such misrepresentation. Anti-Halaal Campaign
A Christian fringe group has once again initiated a smear campaign against halaal. They have petitioned the Commission for the Protection of the Rights of Cultural, Religious and Linguistic Communities (CRL) complaining that they are being forced to eat and drink Halaal products which they claim is a violation of their rights. They also lament that they are being forced to purchase Halaal products thus being manipulated into funding Islam. SANHA was the only body that responded strongly to both the press as well as the CRL. No response has yet been received. Gelatine Scarcity
We have not been successful in identifying further sources approved by the Department of Agriculture which meet our halaal requirements. A fair portion of the confectionery and pharma industry cannot be assisted by us due to the lack of availability of this sticky ingredient. International Activity
Due to the sincere efforts of our predecessors and the hard work of our seniors, the various contributions of our small South African community and institutions has gained much acceptance and recognition beyond our borders. This is the Fadh’l and Grace of Allah Ta’âlâ which He bestows on whomsoever he Wills. The work and standing of SANHA has been acknowledged by not only halal certification bodies but also government entities, Alhamdulillah. In the period under review, SANHA was invited and participated at various global events some of which are listed hereunder:
World Halaal Council – held its 15th AGM in Istanbul during November last year. It was hosted by GIMDES, a very strong and credible organisation headed by Dr Husseyin Buyukozer. The AGM this year is scheduled to be held in Istanbul again at the end of October. The Excom meeting was hosted post the JAKIM Convention during April. SANHA continues to serve on both the Shari’ah and Membership Committees.
International Symposium on Economics, Finance and Ethics, Istanbul – Whilst attending the WHC event, GIMDES arranged for SANHA representatives to attend and present at this event too.
JAKIM Malaysia – SANHA attended the annual Recognised Halaal Certification Bodies Convention held in Kuala Lumpur during April this year. This year’s program also witnessed the launch of IHAB (International Halal Accreditation Board). This is an initiative to create an international board of recognised reputable halaal certifying organisations which have been audited and formally accredited by any one of the Muslim member government entities. Hopefully this would eliminate duplication in seeking endorsement and recognition from several different government agencies.
15 SANHA ANNUAL REPORT 1440/2018
DOST Philippines – SANHA was invited to attend the World Halal Assembly hosted by the
Philippines Department of Science and Technology. We were tasked to do a presentation on the ‘Spiritual Value of Halal’, a perspective which is many a times forgotten in an environment where the monetary value of the Global Halal Market is primarily focused upon.
Thailand Halal Assembly – The Central Islamic Committee of Thailand in conjunction with the Chulalongkorn Halal Science Centre and Halal Standards Institute of Thailand hosted an international convention with the theme, ‘Exploring Harmonisation of Global Halal Standards’. SANHA were among the representatives who attended from 42 countries.
International seminar, Brunei Darussalaam – SANHA was a keynote Speaker at this event co-hosted by the Sultan Sharif Ali Islamic University and the Ministry of Energy and Industry. Our presentation dealt with ‘Critical Halaal issues in products other than food’.
MTCP Malaysia – This program, Malaysian Technical Cooperation program, funded by the Malaysian Government seeks to develop potential leadership in National Halal Certification bodies. SANHA was once again given the opportunity to attend this two-week course hosted by ILHAM (Institut Latihan islm Malaysia). Moulana Mahmood Yacoob of the KZN office was nominated to attend.
Mauritius Tourism Promotion Board – SANHA was invited to attend this program which was aimed at the Hospitality industry due to the boom of halal-friendly tourism from the Middle East to this Dream Island. Much work is however required in developing Halaal certification and monitoring activity in the region.
Accreditation of Halaal Certification Bodies – A year has elapsed since our accreditation bythe Gulf Accreditation Centre. We are thus due for the first surveillance audit. Special du’as are requested for a clean audit since full saturation of the SQMS has not yet been realised. SANHA also intends to expand its accreditation scope to include additives, ingredients & food chemicals and cosmetic products.
BPJPH Indonesia – This is the new entity being vested with the authority of regulating Halalcertification in Indonesia. SANHA met with them to initiate the recognition process which will facilitate the export of Halaal products from SA to Indonesia.
SANHA Pakistan
Alhamdulillah, the organisation is making great strides and member representatives are also being officially acknowledged for their competence and expertise even in government circles. Infact they have even been given executive positions on official government committees some of which are as follows:
Mufti Yusuf AbdurRazzaq – Vice Chair, National Standards Committee
Mufti Ahsan Zafar – Member Scientific Panel, Punjab Food Authority and PSQCA Technical Committee
Mufti Arif Ali Shah – Member PSQCA Technical Committee Alhamdulillah, they have also set up a strong research group which tackles various contemporary issues and writes articles and booklets. Six booklets have been published and approximately 18 articles have been written. SANHA South Africa arranges sponsorship for the translations of these publications into English which has been welcomed world over. They also provide advisory services to various other governmental regulatory and educational organs. SA Government Interest
There has been growing interest from the various government stakeholders to promote and develop the SA Halaal Industry. In addition to the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), with whom we’ve been
SANHA ANNUAL REPORT 1440/2018 16
partnering for some time, Trade and Investment KZN (TIKZN) as well as the Western Cape Agriculture Dept. is actively involved in exploring investment opportunities, establishing Halaal Parks and growing the Halaal export and tourism market. In addition to previous initiatives through the DTI, SANHA is also partnering with TIKZN to realise the set objectives above. SANHA coordinated, facilitated and also participated in several international and local trade exhibitions and fairs during the period under review. Hereunder follows some details:
Agro Food Oman
Gulfood 2018, UAE
Maritime Silk Road, China
Saudi Agri Expo, Riyadh
Agri Food, Peru
Africa’s big Seven, Gallagher Midrand
Hostex Johannesburg
Global Trade Show, Midrand
Africa Muslim Farmers Association (AMFA), Pietermaritzburg
Hartley Road Fair, Durban The SA Trade Commission in the UAE requested SANHA to host the Inward Buyers Mission of FMCG industry representatives from Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, UAE and Iran which was successfully arranged at short notice. We gathered fifty local halaal certified companies to attend and it turned out to be an excellent B2B facilitation program. The Western Cape government, through WESGRO, also hosted a Halaal Week for targeted international buyers who were introduced to local Halaal industry role-players at the Westin Hotel in Cape Town during October this year. Local Halaal Certification bodies including SANHA were part of the support group. Another major development is the Western Cape’s initiative to establish a Halaal Standard which they wish to incorporate into the Agricultural Products Standards Amendment Bill. A task team has been created to discuss and debate the various options with regards Halaal certification and accreditation. Knowledge Sharing and Skills Development
It is amazing how we can assist and uplift each other simply by sharing knowledge, expertise and experiences… Alhamdulillah, SANHA continues to offer assistance to various groups and organisations on an ongoing basis. In the past period, the following halaal training initiatives were undertaken:
IFTA Students - SANHA Halaal induction program
Madrasah In’amiyyah, Camperdown-Foreign students
Darul ‘Uloom Zakariyya – Russian students
Malaysian Halal Protocols – JAKIM representatives came down to SA for a week to familiarise our auditors and staff on specific halal protocols required by JAKIM
Young Leaders Academy – SANHA staff attended the course hosted by Adv. Mohamed Vahed to nurture and equip young Ulama with Leadership skills
SAAFFI – Staff are identified to attend relevant courses offered by the South African Flavour and Fragrance Industry so that we are kept abreast with the developments in the industry
17 SANHA ANNUAL REPORT 1440/2018
Accreditation Readiness Training Program – SANHA hosted members from TANHAC, Tanzania;
IHP Portugal and IDCP Philippines to train them on the requirements and procedures needed to obtain the required accreditation.
Public Relations
Viv Segal, the MD of Communications Consultancy firm states, “PR means telling the truth and communicating ethically – even when what the media wants is a headline and what the public wants is scapegoats… PR fails when there is no integrity”. Alhamdulillah, this department is ably lead by Hajee Ebrahim Lockhat who has now permanently moved to Gauteng. See hereunder some of the PR activities for the period under review:
E-Bulletin – Four editions of this E-publication were circulated via email in the period
Flash News – This digital publication focuses on current matters/news. Nine blasts were circulated in the period
Musjid Times - Nine posters were issued and distributed along with the monthly Hilaal notices circulated by JUSA Hilaal Committee.

Trade Directory – Alhamdulillah, this publication has been welcomed by the Department of Trade and Industry and is widely distributed at trade fairs and exhibitions. An excellent initiative to promote and market Halaal certified establishments to the local and international trade circles.
Radio Programmes – The Helpline HOD Moulana Bilal conducts the weekly Q & A programme hosted by Radio Islam each week. The PRO is also called upon by other radio stations viz. Al-Ansaar, Radio 786 and Cii from time to time to address current pressing issues.

I seek pardon and forgiveness for my many weaknesses and shortcomings and beseech your sincere supplications that Allah Ta’ala grant
SANHA ANNUAL REPORT 1440/2018 18
us ikhlấs and protect the organisation from the many fitan and challenges that we are faced with as we approach the impending hour. Most certainly, the achievements of the past year were only possible through the hard work and dedication of the Operational Management Team, the Executive Leadership, our committed HOD’s and support staff in the various offices and departments who strive to uphold the integrity of our mission and achieve excellence in the services we render to the Ummah. It is also appropriate that we offer gratitude and thanks to the various member organisations that rendered unwavering support to SANHA over the years through the most challenging of times and to the Executive Committee representatives and Management Board for their contribution. And Taufeeq is only from Allah Ta’ala …. Muhammad Saeed Navlakhi (Moulana) Theological Director

25 SANHA ANNUAL REPORT 1439/2017
Treasurer’s Report
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. All praise and gratitude are due to Allah, the
Lord of the worlds. May His Choicest Blessings be upon the gentle soul of the noblest of mankind,
Muhammad Mustapha SAW, his companions and those who continue to follow his footsteps till a
day when wealth and kin will not be of any benefit except he that comes with a submissive soul to
the will of Allah.
The current year under review entrenched our mission of providing the best service to the Muslim
Consumer. On reflection, I am satisfied that we have significant strides in formulating and implementing
policies to align SANHA with best international practice. These policies would hopefully achieve the
intended purpose of streamlining decisions and accountability in this regard; budgets and human resources
are being streamlined as a first measure with other areas to follow.
We are pleased to announce that the process of transformation within SANHA is gaining momentum thus
preparing for the anticipated growth. The successful implementation of our SANHA brand depends not
only on its workforce but also through the confidence of the Muslim Consumer at large, both nationally
and internationally.
I now want to present the Treasurers Report and the audited financial statements for the year ended 28
February 2018. I am pleased to report that 2018 was another excellent year for SANHA as we once again
delivered outstanding value. Annual Turnover comprising mainly certification income was R25,764,650,
an increase of 14% from 2017. Operational expenditure amounted to R23,797,428 resulting in a net
surplus of R 1 959 086. Employee cost to company of R16,474,763 accounted for 70% of total
expenditure. With 2019 budget in mind, SANHA has identified the need of a Chief Operating Officer,
who we are confident will only add value to SANHA in its desire to achieve good governance.
To remain global, SANHA adopted and invested a large sum of resources to the GAC (Gulf Accredited
Certification) process. This significant investment is a seed to escalate our organization both locally and
globally and in a manner that will only enhance standards within SANHA. We continue to explore further
the value that GAC offers to SANHA.
2019 will be a year of transition as we successfully plant the seeds to implement policies and financial
understanding of our growing organization. We believe this will make SANHA stronger and solidify a
foundation that will ensure sustainability and leadership. The Executive and Trustees of SANHA are
committed to the transformation of SANHA in the coming years.
In closing, I’d be remiss if I didn’t acknowledge the very dedicated and motivated Committee members
who supported me and believed in the fact what we are doing is right and most of all in the interest of
SANHA. The successful implementation of our strategic idea depends on the co-operation of the entire
team to accomplish the objective of SANHA.
I’m inspired by our Chairman and Trustees who clearly have a common vision of SANHA moving
forward. We always try to do what’s right, work together and build it better. These are SANHA’s core
SANHA ANNUAL REPORT 1440/2018 26
values and they guide us at every meeting.
Finally, I wish to thank the Executive Officer, Theological Director and each employee of SANHA for all
their hard work during 2017/2018. Not many people would be aware of the sacrifices they’ve made in
the interest of the organisation.
But our gratitude rests with the Muslim Consumer, without whose support SANHA would never achieve
success.
With thanks
O.F. Moola
Treasurer
