One of the most important occasions in Brunei is the birth of Prophet Muhammad celebrated for 12 nights. Every night until the day of Maulidur Rasul itself, the devout gather in mosques and prayer halls throughout the country to attend mass in an event called “Dikir Maulud.” This culminates in a colorful procession on the day of the Maulid, where able-bodied males in traditional costume “baju melayu” lead the procession while the women chant “selawat,” an invocation for peace.
