Eid-el-Fitri: Barr Agbaje Greets Muslims, Urges ‘Continuous Spiritual Rebirth’

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Oyo State, Barrister Akeem Agbaje, has rejoiced with Muslims on the occasion of the Eid-el-Fitr celebrations. Eid Fitri, which marks the end of the holy month of Ramadan, in his Eid Fitri message, he urged Muslims to continue in the spirit of Ramadan by continually committing themselves to spiritual rebirth. This, he said, involves prayers and good conduct, which keep us nearer to Almighty Allah.

“I must congratulate my brothers and sisters in Islam on the occasion of another Eid Fitri celebration. It is a thing of sheer joy to have participated in and completed the holy month of Ramadan. I want to urge Muslims to imbibe the lessons and spirit of the holy month even after it. The spiritual practices of prayer, love, and kindness should not stop, and the vices and seeming wrongdoings that were suspended should not be resumed. We must continue in the mood of prayer for our dear country and its leaders. To birth the nation of our dreams, we must pray Almighty Allah guides our leaders right.”

The APC chieftain, Agbaje, urged moderation and kindness in celebration. “As we celebrate, let us extend hands of love to others and allow others to share in our abundance. As we celebrate, let us do it in moderation. Ramadan teaches us moderation, and we should not go overboard celebrating it. As we all have participated in this year’s Ramadan, may we witness and participate in many more, In Sha Allah.
