The text of the above article by Abdulfatah Said Mohamed and Ronald Ofteringer originally stated on page 832 that the Code of Conducts for Muslim Humanitarian Relief Organizations elaborated by the Turkish Humanitarian Relief Foundation (İnsan Hak ve Hürriyetleri ve İnsani Yardım Vakfı, IHH) in 2009 was the first draft document for the dialogue between the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and the Islamic NGOs from its member States and therefore disseminated more widely. It should instead have specified that the Islamic Charter of the Work of Goodness, a project of the Geneva-based Cordoba Foundation, was discussed with Islamic charities already in 2006 at a conference in Doha, and was equally presented in the OIC-Islamic NGO consultations. Both documents informed the subsequent discussions in The Humanitarian Forum, and the dialogue between OIC and NGOs.

In addition, please note that the following document name has changed: the Islamic Charter of the Work of Goodness changed its name in 2015 to the Charter of the Work of Goodness.
