Bismillahirrahmanirrahim.
The 10th of Zulhijjah is a very meaningful day for all Muslims because once again we have the opportunity to celebrate Eid Al-Adha or Hari Raya Korban. Eid Al-Adha is one of the great days of Islam that Allah SWT has bestowed on His servants after successfully performing an important act of worship, namely the Hajj.
Eid Al-Adha brings with it important messages and teachings that are closely related to the unity of Muslims around the world regardless of race, language, skin colour, culture and country. The Covid-19 pandemic that is plaguing the world at the moment really demands sacrifice from all angles. It demands patience and unity of cooperation from all parties so that this pandemic can be fought together until the end. Let us together make this Covid-19 pandemic a self-reflection for us to continue to obey His commands and also abandon all His prohibitions.
On behalf of all the staff of the Sultan Abdul Halim Mua’dzam Shah International Islamic University (UniSHAMS), I wish you a happy Eid Al-Adha. Hopefully we can all abide by the SOPs set by the government and keep each other safe from visiting crowded places. May the worship we do be accepted by Allah SWT. InsyaAllah.
