The Message from the Imam Khatib of Tokyo Camii, Muhammet Rıfat Çınar,
regarding Eid Al-Adha

Dear Brothers and Sisters!
It was the second year of the Hijrah. Our Prophet (saw) would celebrate ‘Eid al-Adha with his Companions for the first time. Qurbani would be performed, and believers would rejoice in unity and solidarity as they celebrated ‘eid. The joy and excitement of the ‘eid surrounded everybody. The Messenger of Allah (saw) greeted his Companions when he arrived at the masjid. After offering thanks and praise to Allah (swt), he (saw) said, “The first thing to do on this day is to perform the ‘eid prayer, then we will return and slaughter our sacrifices. Whoever does so then indeed has followed our sunnah.”

Qurbani is more than just sacrificing an animal; it is a quest for piety and becoming close to Allah (swt). It is a symbol of purely and sincerely turning towards al-Rahman. It is a manifestation of the love for Allah and a sign of sacrifice in the way of Allah.

‘Eid al-Adha, on the other hand, is granted to Allah the Almighty to His pious servants. It is His (swt) offering for those equipping themselves with the Prophet Ibrahim’s (as) faith, Hajar’s (as) loyalty, and the Prophet Isma’il’s (as) patience and submission.

The days of ‘eid are the days to give out and share in the way of Allah (swt). The sıla-i al-Rahm is the essence of the ‘eid. The days of ‘eid are exceptional times when the brotherhood in faith peaks. The days of ‘eid are the days of enhancing our sense of being an ‘ummah.

I would like to take this opportunity to pray to Allah the Almighty (swt) to make the ‘Eid al-Adha conducive to calmness for our souls, barakah for our homes, and peace for our country and the Islamic world. ‘Eid Mubarak; I wish you all a happy ‘Eid!

The Importance of Good Character
إِنَّ مِنْ أَحَبِّكُمْ إِلَيَّ وَأَقْرَبِكُمْ مِنِّي مَجْلِسًا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ أَحَاسِنَكُمْ أَخْلَاقًا
The most beloved of Allah's servants to Allah are those with the best manners.
Allah'ın kulları arasında en çok sevdiği kimseler, en güzel ahlâka sahip olanlardır.
アッラーのしもべの中で、アッラーに最も愛されるのは、最も良い性格を持つ者たちです。
Sahih Bukhari (Hadith 3559)
Justice and Fairness
إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَأْمُرُكُمْ أَنْ تُؤَدُّوا الْأَمَانَاتِ إِلَىٰ أَهْلِهَا وَإِذَا حَكَمْتُمْ بَيْنَ النَّاسِ أَنْ تَحْكُمُوا بِالْعَدْلِ
Indeed, Allah commands you to render trusts to whom they are due and when you judge between people to judge with justice.
Hiç şüphesiz Allah size, emanetleri ehline teslim etmenizi ve insanlar arasında hükmettiğiniz zaman adaletle hükmetmenizi emreder.
本当にアッラーは、あなた方が信託をその権利主に返すことを、そしてあなた方が人々の間を裁く時には公正さによって裁くことを、ご命じになる。
