What happens when faith meets fintech? When mosques couldn’t collect donations—and banks couldn’t help—one man built a solution from scratch.
Meet Harimann Hayak, the corporate veteran who created Giving Friday, a digital platform empowering mosques to receive donations seamlessly, uphold amanah (sacred trust), and plan with certainty.
Now used across communities, his vision is expanding beyond Singapore—into a full ecosystem for Muslim institutions, powered by tech and faith.
We explore:
🔹 Why banks failed Friday donations
🔹 How he overcame regulations and doubt
🔹 The rise of AI Ustaz and what’s next
This isn’t just an app. It’s a movement.
Whether you’re into fintech, social impact, or underdog stories, this episode is a masterclass in turning obstacles into opportunities—with heart.
