Educating Youths With Al-Quran Morals
By Za'im Zaini

Bandar Seri Begawan - Preparation such as knowledge, education, guidance, training and exposure is necessary to fulfil youths' ambitions (with al-Quran morals) and at the same time to assist them in facing challenges to fulfil future agendas.

This was stated yesterday by Dato Paduka Awg Hj Abdul Rahman bin Hj Mohiddin, Permanent Secretary at the Ministry of Religious Affairs and the guest of honour, at the closing ceremony of the Islamic understanding seminar, themed "Tunas Bangsa Berakhlak Al-Quran" or Nation's Youth Moral Based on the Al-Quran, at the Islamic Dakwah Centre.

"We have high expectations on youths and it is not fair to mention those expectations and ambitions in words," he said.

"'Youths carry heavy responsibilities and at the same time are associated with negative issues such as bad behaviours, as well as activities against tradition, rules and customs.

"They are an easy target because of their age and are easily influenced and exploited," he said.

However, the permanent secretary also urged government institutions, society, families and youth associations to help overcome such issues.

Dato Paduka Awg Hj Abdul Rahman also asked if programmes available in the country that can attract youth participation are enough.

He also said that education through the Ministry of Education and Ministry of Religious Affairs help produce knowledgeable and pious citizens, while the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sports brings youths in line with the aspirations of the country.

He added that a successful Bruneian youth is one with al-Quran morals.  -- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin
