COLOMBO: As a believer in inter faith harmony I always strive to promote unity among the different communities. It is important to ensure that future generations of all communities live in tranquility and harmony accepting and understanding the difference that make them unique and the common areas that unite them in humanity.
A step in this direction is to enjoy each others’ festivities and to enter into the full joy experienced by each.
It’s my intention to have a open mosque day once a month for members of other communities to learn about the activities in the mosque. In this we will remove the unknown around our beliefs and build understanding about each other.
At this time of economic downturn we need to work together to uplift and support each other as Sri Lankans.
I want to wish all Sri Lankans Eid Mubarak and may Allah guide us in these uncertain times.
