al-Adha, and extend my most sincere wishes to each of you.
During the days of Eid al-Adha, which symbolizes Islam’s
revelation to humanity as the final divine religion and a path
toward spiritual and moral salvation, millions of Muslims come
together for the Hajj pilgrimage, experiencing the pride and joy of
unity, equality, and readiness for any sacrifice in the name of
noble ideals.
The sacrificial ceremonies, celebrated every year in our country
as a nationwide holiday, further strengthen the feelings of
solidarity, humanism, and compassion among people, turning into a
triumph of benevolence and adherence to national and moral values
in our society.
Dear sisters and brothers!
In these blessed days, we once again commemorate the immortal
memory of our martyrs with gratitude. Praying that your
supplications for the peace and tranquility of our people and state
be accepted by the Almighty, I wish your families happiness and
your tables abundance and prosperity.
Happy Eid al-Adha!"
