Some of the eighty participants at work.

Around eighty people participated in a cleaning campaign that was held yesterday at the Muhammad Jamalul Alam Mosque.

This event was organised by its Takmir Committee, Muslims and youths in collaboration with the Welfare, Sports and Social Body of Municipal Board in Kuala Belait and Seria as well as in joint cooperation with the fire department.

The aim was to strengthen relationships of the community and prayer groups.

Present during that day were chairman of the aforementioned Municipal Board, Abd Majid Alias, senior officers and others.

Prior to the cleaning campaign, participants performed the Sunat prayers.

Participants not only cleaned the internal and external areas of the mosque but also planted new trees around its vicinity.

The project was done in view of approaching holy time of Ramadhan, when various religious events will be held throughout.

They include talks before the breaking of fasts, talks on Nuzul Al-Quran, a Tedarus ceremony as well as Terawih and Witir prayers.
