The People’s Progressive Party (PPP) extends greetings to all our Muslim brothers and sisters on the occasion of Eid-ul-Fitr.
This is indeed an auspicious time in the Muslim calendar as it celebrates the end of the holy month of Ramadan when Muslims fast from dawn to sunset, refraining from many natural human urges.
Fasting is one of the five pillars of Islam and it was during the month of Ramadan that the Holy Quran was revealed and charity is urged. As this significant occasion is being observed, it allows an opportune moment for reflection on its pertinent messages which have relevance for all mankind. It embodies the virtues of sacrifices, generosity, and charity and brings peace and unity.
In a world characterized by so much poverty and inequity, the message of giving and sharing can no longer be ignored.
The PPP wishes to draw from the rich lessons of this occasion to reiterate that sacrifices bring success and that hope is alive and must never be lost. Once again the Party extends greetings to all especially our Muslim brothers and sisters on this happy occasion.
Eid Mubarak!
People’s Progressive Party,
