Address: 49 Haji Lane, Singapore 189242

Wakifs: Syed Agil Bin Salim Alsree, Syed Abdulrahman Bin Ali Aljunied, Syed Abdulkader Bin Ahmad Alhadad

Beneficiaries: Rubat Tarim in Hadhramaut, Yemen

Summary
With a shared ancestry stemming from Hadhramaut in Yemen, three families dedicated their Wakaf in Singapore, to solely to support Rubat Tarim, a religious institution from their native land in Yemen.

The three families, Alsagoff, Alsree and Alhadad came together and appointed representatives as trustees for the wakaf here to contribute to the Rubat. It is not uncommon for Arab families from Hadramaut to set up wakaf here and contribute back for the religious institutions and families.
