Features : ‘Practising Moderation Amid Current Economic Challenges Also A Form Of Sacrifice’

Zulhijah is the final month of the Islamic calendar and one of the most anticipated months for Muslims worldwide as the rewards are multiplied for every good deed performed during this period. The month also teaches Muslims the true meaning of sacrifice. On the 10th day of Zulhijah, Muslims around the world celebrate Aidiladha, commemorating the spirit of sacrifice exemplified by Prophet Ibrahim and his son, Prophet Ismail. During this occasion, Muslims who are financially able perform the ritual of korban (sacrificial ritual).

It also encompasses the way Muslims navigate life while the world and nations face ongoing challenges, such as the current global supply crisis.
