It emphasised that these days renew Muslims' connection with the Almighty Allah through devotion, remembrance, submission and gratitude, while reminding them that Islam is a religion of mercy, moderation and justice.

The sermon also addressed the current state of the world, marked by turmoil, injustice and moral imbalance. It reaffirmed the Muslim's duty to uphold truth, justice and wisdom; and to avoid being drawn into oppression or hatred. — ONA
