Malaysia Quran Hour 2025 features three surahs for empathy-driven independence
Yayasan Warisan Ummah Ikhlas (WUIF) CEO Marhaini Yusoff announced the theme for this year's event as 'Merdeka Dengan Rasa' or 'Independence with Empathy'.
The programme will highlight three selected surahs: Al-Saff, Al-Balad, and Ali Imran.
Marhaini explained that these surahs emphasise the concept of 'Ahassa', a deep empathy that inspires disciplined action and commitment to building a strong ummah.
She said the initiative aims to cultivate empathetic leaders akin to 'modern-day Saidina Umar', who actively address suffering with compassion.
The theme encourages society to break free from arrogance, oppression, and injustice while fostering fairness and mutual respect.
Marhaini also introduced the #ResetRasa mission, urging Malaysians to reassess their struggles and sensitivity to surrounding hardships.
She stressed that Malaysia #QuranHour 2025 is more than a Quran-reading campaign but a values-driven movement centred on Allah.
The event calls for action rooted in faith rather than power, wealth, or popularity. - Bernama

The Putin-Trump summit can impact crises in other regions, says expert
MOSCOW (Bernama-RIA Novosti): The outcome of the Russian-US talks in Alaska could influence not only the settlement of the Ukrainian crisis but also conflict dynamics in other regions, including the Middle East, Lebanese expert on Russian affairs Ahmed Al-Haj Ali told RIA Novosti. "The agreements reached may eventually be reflected in other crisis areas in the future, though not immediately, but gradually - including in the Middle East," Al-Haj Ali said. Closer alignment between Moscow and Washington could have a positive effect on the resumption of Iranian-US negotiations, he added. "Any diplomatic and political success of Russia reduces pressure on the state, allowing it to strengthen its influence in the Middle East and other important regions. This opens up space for a certain stabilisation of the balance of power at the regional and international levels," the expert said. At the same time, fundamental differences remain between Russia and the United States and require greater rapprochement, he said. "This meeting helped in many ways to split the iceberg of destroyed Russian-US relations, which had sunk to a Cold War level. It demonstrated the willingness of both leaders to pursue shared interests," Al-Haj Ali said. On Friday, Putin and Trump met in Anchorage, Alaska for a three-on-three format talks that lasted 2 hours and 45 minutes. In addition to the presidents, Russia was represented by Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and presidential aide Yury Ushakov, and the United States by Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Special Envoy Steve Witkoff. -- BERNAMA-SPUTNIK/RIA NOVOSTI
