MNLF CALL FOR PATIENCE AND STEADFASTNESS - SG Mursi Ibrahim

 
Assalamu Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh, Alhamdulillah for the blessing of another day—a day to renew our faith, purpose, and commitment to our noble cause: Hula', Bangsa and Agama. Let this serve as a heartfelt reminder to all MNLF, as enjoined by our Central Committee Chairman, H.E. Prof. Nur P. Misuari to remain focused on our respective responsibilities and to contribute earnestly to the revitalization of our organization, guided always by the Sacred Teachings of the Holy Qur'an and the Sunnah of Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam).
Let us not be swayed by distractions, personal ambitions, or disunity. Instead, let us be:
 
🔸 Patient in adversity
🔸 Steadfast in principle
🔸 Determined in action
🔸 Committed to our collective quest for lasting peace and sustainable socio-economic development in the Bangsamoro Homeland.

2. Unity in the Path of Allah: ❤️❤️❤️
"And hold firmly to the rope of Allah all together and do not become divided..."
(Surah Aal-Imran 3:103)
3. Duty to Uplift the Oppressed:❤️❤️❤️

(Surah An-Nisa 4:75)
 
🕋 Guidance from the Sunnah of the Prophet (S.A.W):
1. On Sincerity of Purpose:📌📌📌
"Verily, deeds are only with intentions, and every person will have only what they intended."

🛡️ A Call to Action:
 
Let us renew our niyyah (intention) daily, serve with honor, courage and humility, and persevere in our path—not for worldly gain but for the upliftment of the Bangsamoro people and the fulfillment of our trust (amanah).
 
Victory belongs not to those who rush, but to those who endure with faith and discipline. Let us rise each morning with this conviction in our hearts.
 
Wa billahi tawfiq wal hidayah.
