18 August 2026 – The Student Management and Training Division (BPPL), in collaboration with the Student Representative Council (MPP), organised the Young Khateeb Competition as part of efforts to foster love for our beloved Prophet Muhammad SAW, whilst also building confidence, courage, and communication skills among students.
The competition was participated in by representatives from each workshop, with every workshop nominating one representative to deliver a khutbah. The khutbah text used was based on the text provided by the Johor State Islamic Religious Department.
This programme not only provided students with valuable experience in understanding the role and responsibilities of a khateeb, but also served as a platform to uphold the use of Jawi script, which is becoming less commonly used in daily life.
It is hoped that programmes such as this will continue to be strengthened in the future so that we can nurture a generation of students who are not only skilled in technical fields, but who also possess strong character, courage, good morals, and love for religion and the Prophet Muhammad SAW.
