The Message from the Imam Khatib of Tokyo Camii, Çınar, regarding Eid Al-Adha
Dear Brothers and Sisters!
The days of ‘eid are the days to give out and share in the way of Allah (SWT). The days of ‘eid are about remembering and being remembered. Let us, therefore, observe the rights of neighbors, relatives, the poor, the orphan, and those in need. Let us share our love and grace with them in addition to our material resources.
The silat al-Rahm is the essence of the ‘eid. Starting with our parents, let us visit our elders, friends, relatives, and neighbors and be the recipients of their Duas. Let us share the pleasure of ‘eid with the sick, the elderly, and then abandoned. Let us not deprive our children and youth, who represent our future, of the spiritual ambiance of ‘eid.
The days of ‘eid are exceptional times where the brotherhood in faith peaks. So, let us heal broken and saddened hearts with ‘eid’s beauty and abundance of divine blessings. Let us end bad feelings and resentments between us and our brothers and sisters. Let us avoid revenge, grudge, backbiting, and slandering, which damage our unity and brotherhood.
Dear Brothers and Sisters!
The days of ‘eid are the days of enhancing our sense of being an ‘ummah. Let us support our oppressed and victimized brothers and sisters in religion, who reached the days of ‘eid in blood and tears through our verbal and non-verbal prayers. Let us supplicate to our Lord Almighty (SWT) for the Muslim lands to enjoy days of ‘eid in peace and security.
I would like to take this opportunity to pray to Allah the Almighty (SWT) to make ‘Eid al-Adha conducive to calmness for our souls, barakah for our homes, and peace for the Islamic world. ‘Eid Mubarak; I wish you all a happy ‘Eid!
