Perlis:The continuity of the ummah requires leadership with the courage to uphold truth, the resolve to champion justice, and an unwavering commitment to prioritizing the people's interests, stated Raja Muda of Perlis Tuanku Syed Faizuddin Putra Jamalullail.

According to BERNAMA News Agency, Tuanku Syed Faizuddin emphasized that effective leadership goes beyond holding a position or wielding power; it is about guiding and uniting the community towards collective well-being. He highlighted the need for a holistic approach involving educational institutions, authorities, religious bodies, industry, civil society organizations, and the public to address the increasingly complex global landscape.

He made these remarks while officiating the International Seminar on Islam and the Sustainability of the Ummah (SIDKUN 2026). The seminar, organized by the School of Languages, Civilisation and Philosophy at Universiti Utara Malaysia in collaboration with the Perlis Islamic Religious and Malay Custom Council, focuses on Applied Shariah, Islamic thought, communication, and education, as well as the potential of digital technologies to support sustainable development in accordance with Shariah principles.

This integration is seen as crucial for nurturing a generation that is visionary, morally upright, creative, and competitive, equipped to devise new solutions in response to contemporary challenges.
