Reciting Surah Ad-Dukhan is a meaningful act of devotion that seeks Allah the Almighty’s mercy and strengthens faith, said Head of the Religion and Morality Unit under the Welfare Body for Brunei Students in Egypt Ahmad Nasyaruddin bin Haji Abdul Rahim.
He highlighted this during a tazkirah at the 165th Munajat Night on Saturday, organised by the Ministry of Religious Affairs.
He also shared a hadith by Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), promising a house in paradise for those who recite the surah on Friday evenings.
The tazkirah, Tadabbur Surah Ad-Dukhan, elaborated on the warnings within Surah Ad-Dukhan, a chapter in Al-Quran that highlights the consequences of disbelief and the rewards for faithfulness.
Ambassador of Brunei Darussalam to Egypt Pengiran Haji Mohd Salimin bin Pengiran Mohd Daud led the recitation of Sayyidul Istighfar and Surah Al-Fatihah.
The recitation of Surah Ad-Dukhan was led by Muhammad Ekram ‘Afif bin Mohd Hanafi, a third-year student at Ma’had Qiraat Shoubra followed by Doa Munajat by President of the Welfare Body for Brunei Students in Egypt Muhammad Izz bin Masdi Wijaya.
The event concluded with Zikir Al-Maghfirah Wa Ar-Rahmah led by Awangku Muhammad Idris Fadhlee bin Pengiran Dato Seri Paduka Haji Mohammad Tashim, a first-year student at Al-Azhar University and Doa Peliharakan Sultan dan Negara Brunei Darussalam by welfare officer for Brunei students in Egypt Sheifol bin Haji Mohamad Heldy.
