Hajj Message from M. Thaufiq Zubyr, President, Colombo Grand Mosque

 The Hajj Festival or EID  Ul- ADHA is a day in the Islamic calendar that is celebrated by Muslims all over the world.It is a day that dates back to Prophet Ibrahim’s time. The  day Prophet Ibrahim’s faith was put to test by God. Indeed he was willing to sacrifice his son, but the lords Mercy was far greater  and instead a Lamb was sacrificed on this solemn day.

Hajj festival is a time of caring and sharing the joy of LOVE & MERCY. Helping the poorer families in our  communities is considered a blessing during festivity .As we celebrate the festival, it is important we are cognizant and responsible to ensure we abide by the health authorities’ rules during the pandemic.

A happy Eid  to all and May our Nation be blessed with peace and prosperity.”
