Bandar Seri Begawan - Kg. Sungai Hanching Mosque in Jalan Muara is set to organise the National Dakwah Songs competition this coming August to stir interest and responsibility amongst the younger generation to propagate Islam through religious songs.

Hj Mohd Zaide bin Hj Dam it, the secretary of the mosque's Takmir Committee, said the preliminaries will take place on August 22 while the finals will be on August 29.

The venue of the competition will be announced later.

He said youths representing mosques, suraus, praying halls, university, colleges, schools or organisations nationwide are invited to take part.

"Participants must be citizens or residents of the country. The invited group can only send one team and the time allocated would be only 8 minutes.

"Marks will be deducted for any team who exceed the time," he said.

Participating teams are free to sing any dakwah songs in the preliminaries though they are encouraged to sing their own compositions.

However, in the finals they must sing only their own compositions.

Entry forms can be obtained from Imam Pg Mohammad Hafizuddin Pg Hj Bakar of Kg Sg Hanching Mosque, offices of Brunei-Muara Mosque Affairs or at the Baitul Mal Building in Jalan Kota Batu.
