EID-AL-ADHA MESSAGE OF
MINISTER MOHAGHER M. IQBAL
***
Asalaamu alaikum warakmatulahi taala wa barakatuh!
On behalf of the Ministry of Basic, Higher, and Technical Education, I want to greet our dear brothers and sisters in Islam and our non-Muslim friends, a happy Eid Mubarak on this blessed occasion of Eid-Al-Adha. It is by the grace of Allah, the Merciful and the Compassionate, that we can honor this significant celebration in these trying times.
Eid-Al-Adha marks the completion of the annual Hajj to Mecca, and we pray that those who made the journey gained peace and fulfillment after a long period of reflection. Like Abraham, who Allah blessed for his willingness to make the ultimate sacrifice, we hope that our undertakings will inspire us to be humble and generous to our fellow men and encourage us to be conscientious individuals.
More importantly, let us ensure that these virtues will be passed on to our children and young people for them to become responsible citizens and continue the struggle for a just, prosperous, and peaceful Bangsamoro. We can do so by investing in their education so that their futures to be bright and open to life’s blessings.
Wassalam and Eid Mubarak!
