KUALA LUMPUR, June 26 (Bernama) -- Muslims in this country need to make the Maal Hijrah celebration as a starting point to move towards a better life, said Communications Minister Datuk Fahmi Fadzil.
He said the new year also needs to be accompanied by repentance and resolve to strengthen faith and practice.
"Let us turn a new page with a fresh spirit, a clean heart and the determination to continue contributing to the good of ourselves, our families, the country and society.
"May our every step be always under the protection and blessings of Allah SWT. "Happy Maal Hijrah 1447H," he said in a Facebook post today.
This year's Maal Hijrah celebration carries the theme "Membangun Ummah MADANI” which emphasises the importance of Muslims taking lessons from the event of hijrah in building an inclusive and gracious society.
The theme also highlights efforts to produce human capital that is not only excellent from a physical perspective but also superior in terms of spirituality and noble values.
