Their Highnesses called on Muslims to reflect on their lives and renew their commitment to becoming pious individuals who contribute positively to their families, communities, and the nation
Al-Sultan Abdullah and Tunku Azizah also prayed for the people of Pahang to be blessed with good health, protection, strong faith, and unity in facing present and future challenges.
"Let us make this new Hijrah year a platform to strengthen Islamic brotherhood, seek knowledge, and uphold noble values in our daily lives," the post read. - Bernama
