“Ramadan is a unique and special period for Muslims around the world to renew their faith in the Almighty, deepen their worship and practice the teachings of the Holy Quran.
“Apart from being a time to assist the weak, vulnerable and less fortunate among us, let us utilise this period to pray for continuous peace and unity of our nation – because by the grace of the Almighty, all our individual and national challenges are surmountable. Amin.”
