The Indian Action Committee (IAC) extends Ramadan Mubarak to all the citizens of Guyana, especially those who are adherents of Islam, the religion of peace, at the beginning of this holy month which is observed by over one billion people globally.
The IAC urges those who are verily observing the religious customs and traditions of Islam, pertaining to this holy month, to practice and teach self-discipline, self-restraint and continue to be generous to the less fortunate while obeying God’s commandments.
The IAC recognizes that the observances of the holy month promote great spiritual virtues, teach respect for all of god’s creation and religions, and ensure blessings for the faithful.
The IAC has observed the significant humanitarian efforts by the Prime Minister of New Zealand to provide moral and physical support to the survivors of the terrorist attack on Muslims who were at prayer in two masjids.
The IAC calls on all our national political leaders to practice the principles and learn the lessons of this holy month of Ramadan in order to remedy the social ills besetting Guyana and together lead the country towards peace, parity, prosperity and conviviality.
On behalf of its members and constituents, the IAC wishes Ramadan Kareem to all Muslims.
