A five-kilometre walk, exhibitions and healthy activities were organised by the Religious Teachers University College of Seri Begawan (KUPU SB) in the capital on Sunday, in conjunction with Maulidur Rasul and the 32nd Teacher’s Day celebration.

The Habibi Ya Rasulullah Sallallahu ‘Alaihi Wasallam Guruku Ceria programme sought to glorify the birth anniversary of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) while encouraging physical, mental and spiritual health among teachers.

It was also a platform for KUPU SB to interact with society and educate the public on physical and mental health from the perspective of Islamic teachings.

As part of the programme, a special tazkirah was delivered by a student in the religious teaching programme, Haji Mohd Khairul Mu’az bin Haji Sibodaud, after mass Subuh prayer at the Omar ‘Ali Saifuddien Mosque.

A five-kilometre ‘zikir steps’ was also led by KUPU SB Ra’es Dr Haji Adanan bin Haji Basar.

Exhibitions and activities such as Jawi calligraphy, prayer workshops, talks and Arabic language sessions also took place.

Permanent Secretary at the Ministry of Religious Affairs (MoRA) Haji Mohammad Rosli bin Haji Ibrahim was the guest of honour.

The programme has been incorporated into the weekly Bandarku Ceria in the capital.
