"PAGLISSIN KAWMAN"
A Heartfelt Story of Unity and Blessings in Cleaning Barangay Samal Villages.
In the humble yet vibrant Barangay Samal Villages, a heartfelt aspiration took root, a collective dream to cleanse and renew the community, not only in body but also in spirit. With unwavering faith, we lifted our prayers together, beseeching Allah’s mercy and guidance to bless our endeavor. Mayor Kaiser S. Hataman of the Municipality of Maluso, Basilan Province, said, “Alhamdulillah, our prayers were answered beyond measure.”
The call to action was met with overwhelming support as the full force of our men in uniform rallied behind this noble cause. Under the steadfast leadership of Barangay Samal Villages Chairman Habib Marlon Kamlon, alongside his kagawads, and with the support of Mayor Kaiser S. Hataman and his councilors, as well as other barangay chairmen, the mission to clean and restore our beloved community flourished. Brigade Commander General Frederick Sales and his valiant, compassionate troops—our soldiers, the true defenders of the people—stood at the forefront of this effort.
Joining this formidable force were the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG), Philippine National Police (PNP), Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP), Maritime authorities, the entire Local Government Unit of Maluso, members of MBHTE, and dedicated volunteers from NGOs and CSOs. Together, we formed a united front, embodying the spirit of brotherhood and collective responsibility.
This unity reflects the profound teachings of the Quran and Hadith, reminding us that the best among people are those who bring the most benefit to others. Allah says in the Quran:
“And cooperate in righteousness and piety, but do not cooperate in sin and aggression.” (Surah Al-Ma’idah 5:2)
Our collective effort to cleanse Barangay Samal Villages is a manifestation of this divine guidance—working hand in hand for the betterment of our community, nurturing our environment, and fostering peace and safety.
The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) also said:
“The most beloved of people to Allah is the one who brings most benefit to the people.” (Al-Mu’jam Al-Awsat)
Our endeavor is more than just cleaning; it is a testament to our love for our homeland and our commitment to serve and uplift one another. Each hand that swept the streets, every heart that beat with determination, and every soul that prayed for success contributed to a tapestry of hope and renewal.
As we move forward, may this spirit of unity and service continue to inspire us. Let us remember that true success lies not only in the outcome but also in the sincerity of our intentions and the strength of our bond as a community.
Together, with Allah’s blessings, we shall see Barangay Samal Villages shine anew—a beacon of faith, resilience, and harmony. Sana ay mapanatili natin ito. Fajr Mubarak!🙏🤲☝🏼💞
