Pekan Tutong, Saturday, 14 Zulkaedah 1447/2 Mei 2026 - National Family Day (Hari Keluarga Kebangsaan- HKK) is celebrated on the first Sunday of May each year. For 2026, the celebration falls on Sunday, 3 May 2026, with the theme “My Family, My Hope." In conjunction with this celebration, the Department of Community Development, Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sports (MCYS), organised a Majlis Kesyukuran at Hassanal Bolkiah Mosque, Pekan Tutong which were attended by more than 250 participants.

The Guest of Honour was Yang Berhormat Pengiran Dato Seri Setia Shamhary bin Pengiran Dato Paduka Haji Mustapha, Minister of Transport and Infocommunications, in his capacity as Acting Minister of Culture, Youth and Sports.

The ceremony commenced with the recitation of Surah Al-Fatihah and Doa Kesyukuran led by Yang Mulia Awang Sahibol Omar bin Haji Yusof, Imam Level II from the Department of Mosque Affairs, Ministry of Religious Affairs. This was followed by a religious talk titled “Sakinah Family: Built with Love, Sustained with Responsibility" delivered by Yang Mulia Ustaz Muhammad Safwan bin Mohd Suffian, Assistant Religious Development Officer from the Islamic Da'wah Centre.

The talk highlighted the importance of nurturing a sakinah (harmonious) family grounded in love that is not only felt but actively expressed through meaningful communication, quality time, and consistent care among family members. It further emphasised that love alone is insufficient without being reinforced by a strong sense of responsibility, encompassing religious upbringing such as prayers and engagement with the Qur'an, provision of livelihood and basic needs, as well as the cultivation of good character within the household.

In addition, the speaker underscored that every individual holds a leadership role within the family and will be accountable for the trust entrusted to them. True success, therefore, is not measured solely by achievements outside the home, but by one's ability to build and lead a harmonious, resilient and blessed family, with children regarded as a trust to be nurtured towards well-being in this world and the hereafter.

The ceremony continued with the congregational Asar prayer and concluded with the recitation of the Doa Peliharakan Sultan dan Negara Brunei Darussalam, as well as the National Family Day Prayer, led by Yang Mulia Awang Sahibol Omar bin Haji Yusof, Level II Imam, Department of Mosque Affairs, Ministry of Religious Affairs.

Hari Keluarga Kebangsaan (HKK) disambut pada setiap hari Ahad pertama bulan Mei setiap tahun. Bagi tahun 2026, sambutan ini jatuh pada hari Ahad, 3 Mei 2026, dengan tema “Keluargaku, Harapanku". Bersempena sambutan HKK, Jabatan Pembangunan Masyarakat (JAPEM), Kementerian Kebudayaan, Belia dan Sukan (KKBS) telah mengadakan Majlis Kesyukuran di Masjid Hassanal Bolkiah, Pekan Tutong yang dihadiri lebih daripada 250 orang.

Antara intipati yang disampaikan ialah kepentingan membina keluarga sakinah berasaskan kasih sayang yang bukan sahaja dirasai, tetapi turut dizahirkan melalui komunikasi yang baik, luangan masa berkualiti dan perhatian yang berterusan antara ahli keluarga. Ceramah ini menegaskan bahawa kasih sayang sahaja tidak mencukupi tanpa dipelihara dengan tanggungjawab yang menyeluruh, merangkumi aspek agama seperti pendidikan solat dan Al-Qur'an, penyediaan nafkah serta keperluan hidup, dan pembentukan akhlak yang mulia dalam suasana rumah tangga.

Di samping itu, ditekankan juga bahawa setiap individu adalah pemimpin dalam lingkungan keluarga dan akan dipertanggungjawabkan terhadap amanah yang dipikul.
