His Majesty Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah Mu’izzaddin Waddaulah ibni Al-Marhum Sultan Haji Omar ‘Ali Saifuddien Sa’adul Khairi Waddien, Sultan and Yang Di-Pertuan of Brunei Darussalam said there are many forms of sacrifice that can take place outside the period of Hari Raya Aidiladha during a titah last night to mark the religious occasion.
Such acts include sacrificing to build mosques, to help the poor and destitute, sacrificing to look after the orphans or to assist flood and fire victims, sacrificing to help senior citizens and to assist new Muslim converts, said the monarch.
“All these sacrifices will lead to multiple rewards from Allah the Almighty,” said His Majesty. The monarch said, “The opportunity to sacrifice is always open to all Muslims”, and it includes making donations for the humanitarian fund for Palestinians who are defending their religion, the people and the nation.
