Governor Radda encourages compassion, selflessness on Eid-al-Kabir

As the Muslim faithful in Katsina State join the global celebration of Eid-al-Kabir, Governor Dikko Umaru Radda extends warm greetings and heartfelt felicitations to the people of the state.

In a message focused on unity and reflection, Governor Radda urged Muslims to draw inspiration from the timeless values of Eid-al-Kabir, particularly the lessons of obedience, sacrifice, and faith exemplified by Prophet Ibrahim (PBUH) and his son, Ismail (PBUH). He encouraged them to translate these lessons into lives filled with devotion, compassion, and selflessness.

“Let this Eid-al-Kabir be a time for strengthening the bonds of unity within our communities,” Governor Radda said. “May this celebration inspire acts of kindness and understanding that foster a spirit of brotherhood and solidarity. We must also uphold the teachings of Islam, which promote peace, tolerance, and respect for all, regardless of backgrounds or beliefs.”

Governor Radda further called on the Muslim faithful to seek Divine intervention for the security challenges facing Katsina State and the nation. He urged those performing Hajj to offer special prayers for a safer Nigeria.

“Let us join hands in prayer, beseeching Allah to bless our state and nation with His guidance, protection, and blessings,” he concluded. “May this Eid-al-Kabir be a time of renewal, where we recommit ourselves to the pursuit of harmony, justice, and the betterment of our communities.”
