Kaieteur News – The GAWU joins to extend our warmest wishes to Muslims across our country and around the world who are celebrating Eid-ul-Adha. This special holiday is a time to honour the sacrifice, resolve, and commitment to God demonstrated by Abraham. It would usually mark the end of the pilgrimage of Hajj performed each year by millions of Muslims who journey from all corners of the world to Mecca as a testament to their faith.
The observances of Eid-ul-Adha provide yet another opportunity to reflect on the values of sacrifice, service, compassion, charity, and for helping the less fortunate. Through symbolic sacrifice, the history of Eid Al‐Adha teaches us the duty of respect and care for the next generation. It teaches us the duty of building a healthy family, a healthy society and functional nation state that guarantee us social justice, and solidarity and welfare for our sons and daughters.
As we observe this important day on the Muslim calendar, GAWU urges that we spare a thought for the less fortunate in society. Today, as our country steadily expands and reaches new heights allow us to recognize they are those among us who need our assistance and a helping hand. Indeed, they are our brothers and sisters, and we should seek to ensure that we all rise together and no one is left behind. Indeed, for us, this remains one of the most enduring messages of the Eid-ul-Adha observances.
GAWU urges that this Eid-ul-Adha be an occasion of sharing love and blessing with friends and family. Eid-ul-Adha Mubarak to all Guyanese.
