The media also serves as a liaison between the community, religious scholars and the government in building the people’s economy, especially regarding fatwa and implemented policies.

“At the same time, the media is also a supervisor of government policies when there are things that are not in accordance with the Shari’a. The media is also one of the keys to success in building the Muslim economy.” he added.
