His Majesty Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah Mu'izzaddin Waddaulah ibni Al-Marhum Sultan Haji Omar 'Ali Saifuddien Sa'adul Khairi Waddien, Sultan and Yang Di-Pertuan of Brunei in a titah says Brunei can always be safe, without experiencing any natural disasters that disrupts life. All this, His Majesty says, is the blessing of Brunei, nurtured by supplications, zikir and Al-Qur'an. His Majesty stresses the matter in the Titah in conjunction with the 1448 Hijrah New Year, broadcast nationwide. In the titah, His Majesty urges the Muslim ummah, with the pure intention solely for Allah, to together express gratitude to Him, who has destined them to live long, to be able to welcome and celebrate the Hijrah New Year again.
