Commemorating World Red Crescent Day

 Lyna Mohamad

The Brunei Darussalam Red Crescent Society (BRC) held a religious ceremony to mark the World Red Cross and Red Crescent Day as well as the Diamond Jubilee of BRC yesterday held at the Ash-Shaliheen Mosque.

Present as the guest of honour was BRC President Pengiran Dato Paduka Haji Mohd Yussoff bin Pengiran Haji Bahar.

The event began with a mass Sunnat Hajat prayer followed by recitation of Surah Al-Fatihah led by the president followed by the Surah Yaasiin, Tahlil and Doa Arwah ceremony.

The ceremony was concluded with a mass Asar prayer and Doa Kesyukuran.

World Red Cross and Red Crescent Day celebrates the spirit of humanitarianism and recognises individuals who make a difference in their communities and are often the first ones to step up and support those in need around them.

It is celebrated annually on May 8 in commemoration of the birthday of its founder, Henry Dunant, and this year’s celebration is themed ‘Everything we do comes #fromtheheart.’
