A nasyeed performance led by ISDEV senior lecturer, Dr Mohd Syakir on ISDEV theme song Sunnah Orang Berjuang prompted all ISDEV members to nasyeed along in unison.

Before adjourning the event, Prof. Syukri in his closing speech reminded graduands to take a proactive stance in staying in touch with ISDEV. He discerned that there are three basic patterns of ISDEV Alumni but expressed his sentiments that rightly every ISDEV Alumni should follow one type, that is, those whose heart and thoughts of ISDEV are etched closely in their hearts and mind and that they take the time and effort to keep ISDEV informed of their life after ISDEV. The programme ended with group photo session.
