Muslims urged to transform thinking in conjunction with Maal Hijrah

Muslims in this country have been urged to transform their thinking and way of life based on the true teachings of Islam in ushering the Islamic new year of Maal Hijrah.

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said this was because hijrah is not only about migration from one place to another.

"If we look from the perspective of globalisation, the migration includes changes from various aspects, namely, from the physical, mind, attitude, heart, environment and so on.

"These changes are able to change the living conditions in terms of economic, social, educational and living standards.

"Our country has undergone many changes and achievements from one level to another and has become better and outstanding," he said in the Maal Hijrah 1439 message tonight.
