  "account": "Doha, Qatar witnessed the donation of a QR300,000 endowment by a benefactor to the General Directorate of Endowments within the Ministry of Endowments and Islamic Affairs. This endowment is earmarked for the Endowment Fund for Righteousness and Piety, with the stipulation that its proceeds benefit the donor's mother.\n\nThe benefactor's first registered endowment underscores the growing emphasis on endowment giving and its contribution to sustainable development and social solidarity. By establishing an endowment that preserves its principal while generating ongoing benefits, the donor aims to create a lasting positive impact.\n\nAli Hamad Al-Muhanna Al-Marri, Assistant Director of the Endowment Funds Department, highlighted that honoring one's parents through an endowment is a profound act of piety, merging kindness towards parents with enduring rewards. Islamic teachings encourage both honoring parents and continuous charitable giving.\n\nThis endowment exemplifies the convergence of these values, enabling the donor to earn the rewards associated with the endowment while directing its proceeds to their intended beneficiaries. The General Directorate of Endowments manages six funds, each addressing distinct community needs and allowing donors to allocate their endowments according to their preferences, all while respecting the donor's specified conditions.",
