To mark the holy month of Ramadhan, PJN Pg Abu Bakar Religious School recently organised a 'Qiamullai' practice, which means to stay awake until sunrise, and is a favourite practice by Prophet Muhammad SAW during the religious fasting month.

At the event, Primary Six male students were required to stay overnight at Kampong Pandan Mosque Kuala Belait where they performed prayers after the break of fast on Thursday evening until sunrise. The religious event was carried out to give understanding to students on the benefits and multiple blessings gained from performing religious duties during Ramadhan.

During the event, students performed the Isyak, terawikh and witir prayers. It was then followed with tedarus al-Quran and a talk on proper ways of performing the Sunnat Tahajud and Tasibh prayers.

Students then put their understanding into practice by performing the Sunat Tahajud, Sunat Tasbih and also Sunat Hajat prayers. The activities ended with students performing mass Suboh prayers with other worshippers at the mosque.

The event concluded with a closing ceremony officiated by the guest of honour, Inspectorate Officer Awg Ismail bin Ali, who also presented certificates of participation to students and teachers.
