The houses are fully financed by the Brunei Islamic Religious Council, through the Zakat Asnaf Muallaf group.
The housing assistance scheme is an approach by the Islamic Da’wah Centre towards improving the quality of life for Muslim converts, so that they would be able to carry out their religious obligations with ease.
