Eid-il-kabir: Hon. Mashood Mustapha Felicitate with Muslims, Charges on peaceful coexistence

Chieftain of All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kwara state, Hon. Mashood Mustapha (MM) has felicitated with Kwarans, especially the faithful Muslims as they celebrate Eid-el-Kabir.

MM in his Sallah greeting congratulated all Muslims and charged them to remember the purpose of the celebration, which amongst other things is to acknowledge the trials and triumph of Prophet Abraham (Ibrahim) and willingness to follow Almighty Allah’s (SWT) command to sacrifice his son.

He said the Prophet is remembered and revered across ages and nations for passing a great test of faith.

Stressed that, Eid-el-Kabir symbolises sacrifice, discipline, faith, the spirit of give and take, love of God and love for our neighbour, obedience and total submission to God our creator.

Beyond the sacrificial lesson, we should also not relent in praying for peace, unity and religious tolerance, which are essential to sustaining the glory of our dear state and nation.

He therefore, wish all Kwarans, Nigerians a peaceful and pleasant celebration.
