The story of the life of Prophet Ibrahim (pbuh) teaches ummah the meaning of erasing the sense of ownership towards Allah the Almighty’s gift in the form of family.
This was highlighted in a religious talk titled ‘Lesson learned from life of Prophet Ibrahim (pbuh)’ by accredited religious preacher Dr Muhammad Yadiy bin Haji Mat Yassin, who is also a part-time lecturer from Religious Teachers University College of Seri Begawan (KUPU SB) at the 91st weekly Munajat night held by the Ministry of Religious Affairs (MoRA) on Saturday night.
“ It is a sacrifice that is rarely discussed and questioned, namely feelings and a sense of ownership. Everything we have and we ourselves belong to Allah the Almighty,” he added.
