The 2024 Piala Sumbangsih (also known as Malaysian Charity Shield) was the scheduled 39th edition of the Malaysian Charity Shield, an annual football match played between the winners of the previous season's Malaysia Super League and Malaysia FA Cup. As Johor Darul Ta'zim won the domestic treble in the previous season, their opponents should have been the 2023 Malaysia Super League runners-up, Selangor.
The match was scheduled to be played at the Sultan Ibrahim Stadium on 10 May 2024. It was also scheduled to feature a video assistant referee (VAR) review system for the first time in the Malaysian League system.
On 8 May 2024, Selangor announced their withdrawal from the Charity Shield match due to safety concerns following a series of criminal incidents and threats involving several players and team officials, including their player, Faisal Halim, who was a victim of criminal activity and suffered fourth-degree burns after being attacked with acid. Following Selangor's withdrawal, the match was officially cancelled by the Malaysian Football League (MFL). As the match also counted as the first round of 2024–25 Malaysia Super League season, it was registered as a 3–0 victory for Johor Darul Ta'zim.
