Key programmes included “Nafahat Ramadan,” the Ramadan seminar series “And Secured Them from Fear,” major mosque lectures, Ramadan kits distribution, and activities at da’wah centres and i‘tikaf sites.

Major mosques across the country witnessed vibrant religious activity, with more than 100 lectures and diverse Ramadan events targeting all segments of society. The programmes revitalised the educational and advisory role of mosques while fostering community cohesion. In addition, scholars and preachers conducted field visits to schools and institutions, both within the country and in some external areas.
