About Arah

ARAH is the world’s first halal cryptocurrency dedicated to Muslim communities around the world. Having taken inspiration from the word “Arah”; meaning “direction” in the Indonesian language, ARAH Global is on a mission to provide economic progress for developing Muslim countries by facilitating the distribution of Zakat, Infaq, and Shodaqoh Crypto through the ARAH platform while providing fundraising through targeted programs for those in need.

Understanding the crucial role that halal investment products play in the current cryptocurrency landscape, ARAH Global aims to be at the forefront of development to support the Islamic digital economy in the era of decentralized finance.

ARAH Coin

To fulfil this mission, ARAH Global developed the ARAH coin and the ARAH app, innovative products developed following sharia-compliant agreements, in coordination with Shariah Scholars and consultants to assure the accordance of ARAH with Islamic principles.

The ARAH coin is the official token of the ARAH super app, an all in one app with the goal of connecting users to a variety of halal products and services provided within the app. Made possible by the competitive advantages due to the size of NU’s membership base which will provide more economies of scale and bigger group discounts for everyone’s benefit.

Collectively, the ARAH Global team is made up of an international partnership between MJM Networks, Cake Experiential Communications, and Nahdlatul Ulama (NU), along with more Muslim organizations in various countries for future project development.

Serikat Nelayan Nahdlatul Ulama Serikat Nelayan Nahdlatul Ulama is part of Nahdlatul Ulama (literally translated to Revival of the Ulama, abbreviated as NU) is a traditionalist Sunni Islam movement in Indonesia following the Shafi’i school of jurisprudence. NU was established on January 31, 1926, in Surabaya as a response to the rise of Wahhabism in Saudi Arabia and Islamic modernism in Indonesia. The NU is the largest independent Islamic organization in the world with membership estimates of over 100 million (2020). NU also is a charitable body funding schools and hospitals as well as organizing communities to help alleviate poverty.

Nahdlatul Ulama

Nahdlatul Ulama’s (NU) mission is to spread Islamic teachings, but also to undertake educational activities through its network of 6,830 Islamic boarding schools or pesantren. Its goal is “to spread messages about the tolerant Islam in their respective counties to curb radicalism, extremism and terrorism”.

In December 2014, NU created a joint program with the University of Vienna called VORTEX and launched a global campaign against extremism and jihadism, funded by the Ministry of Internal Security. Its motive is to build a prevention centre in Indonesia to train Arabic-speaking students, alongside NU theologians, to combat jihadist rhetoric.

Water Desalination With Solar-Wind Hybrid Energy (Blue Energy)

Freshwater is essential for people around the world. However, with the scarcity of freshwater that we are currently encountering, desalination processes need to be improved to efficiently generate clean and safe water. Using renewable sources such as solar and wind energy for desalination systems gives a more environmentally friendly approach to desalination and helps to combat water scarcity, which demonstrates high efficiency and low carbon emissions as well. The direction of the Foundation will develop this desalination system in areas of the Muslim community in need.
