KUALA LUMPUR: Having faced a health and economic crisis due to Covid-19 for over two years, the Maal Hjirah 1444H/2022M celebration this year focused on the spirit of togetherness and consensus among the people in facing challenges as the “Malaysian Family”.

Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri’ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah, in his speech at the national-level Maal Hijrah celebration, said the Hijrah (journey of the Prophet Muhammad from Mecca to Madinah) should serve as a guide in building a stable and glorious country in accordance with this year’s theme, Keluarga Malaysia Pemangkin Kemakmuran (Malaysian Family Catalyst For Prosperity).
