Message by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Eid al- Fitr
5 July 2016
Assalam Alaikum!
Hello, my friends!
For the last month, Muslims around the world and here in Canada have fasted from dawn to sunset.
Eid al-Fitr marks the end of the holy month of Ramadan – a time of fasting and reflection, spiritual discipline and renewal, and service to those less fortunate. I am honoured to partake in this special time, which celebrates the common values that unite us all – values like empathy, generosity, discipline, and respect. These are tenets of our Charter of Rights and Freedoms – and vital principles upon which Canada is founded. As we celebrate the end of Ramadan, and look forward toward the future, let us carry these shared values onward – values that built this country and make us stronger every day.
On behalf of our family, Sophie and I extend our warmest wishes to all those celebrating Eid al-Fitr.
Eid Mubarak! |
