Be comforted that sacrifices bring success

– PPP in Eid message

The People’s Progressive Party (PPP) wishes to extend to the Muslim communities in Guyana and the Diaspora Eid Mubarak on the auspicious occasion of Eid-Ul-Fitr.
The PPP, in a statement, said this joyous observance marks the end of the Islamic 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 message, which has relevance for all mankind. It embodies the virtues of sacrifices, generosity and charity, and brings peace and unity,” the party stated.
As Ramadan culminates with the feast of Eid-Ul-Fitr, deprivation through fasting brings sympathy and appreciation of the sufferings of others, while charity teaches to give, rather than expect.
According to the PPP, these values of humanity are of extreme importance in helping to build a better country and world all desire.
The PPP said it wishes to draw from the rich virtues 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!
