He urged the Muslim Ummah to use the month of Ramadan to move closer to Almighty Allah by engaging in good deeds, charity, humanitarian services and supplications, as well as seeking forgiveness at all times.
“As we commence this year's Ramadan fasting, the annual Ramadan lecture (Tafsir) will commence at the Madrasatul Sheik Alimi inside the Emir's Palace on Monday 27th March 2023, beginning from (09:00 GMT) 10am local time everyday,” the Emir added.
