According to the Executive Chairman of Restu Foundation, YBhg Datuk Abdul Latiff Mirasa, “One of the objectives of this festival based on this theme is to introduce art as an interior decoration medium as an effort to preserve and promote the Quran, which is evidence of faith in Allah SWT and the reverence for Islamic symbols, as well as to utilize modern technology and ICT as a very effective and creative means of propagation with the aim of restoring the Muslim community to their true identity.”
“In addition, there are various exciting activities awaiting visitors throughout the festival, including an exhibition of Jubah (cloak) symbolizing the size of Prophet Adam AS. Furthermore, there are many program fillings such as exhibitions of Islamic home interior decorations, artifacts of the Prophet Muhammad SAW, collections of replicas of the swords of the Sahabat RA, and other legacies.
