The Muslim Council of Elders, under the chairmanship of Dr. Ahmed Al-Tayeb, Grand Imam of Al-Azhar, extends its heartfelt congratulations to the Arab and Muslim nations—kings, princes, presidents, and peoples—on the blessed occasion of Eid Al-Fitr.
The Council prays to Almighty Allah to return this joyous occasion to the Arab and Muslim nations, and to all of humanity, with goodness, blessings, compassion, coexistence, and peace.
On this occasion, the Council calls upon all members of the Muslim Ummah to hold fast to the values of Islamic fraternity, to strive for unity and solidarity, and to avoid division and discord. It urges a collective commitment to righteousness and shared purpose so that the Ummah may reclaim its rightful place and leadership among the nations—particularly in light of the many challenges facing our world today.
The Council also emphasizes that Eid Al-Fitr is a time to bring joy and comfort to the hearts of the poor, the needy, the underprivileged, and the marginalized, by extending support, fulfilling their needs, and easing their burdens during these blessed days.
The Council expresses its sincere hope that peace and prosperity will prevail across the Arab and Muslim worlds—and throughout all of humanity. May this blessed occasion return with the end of all crises, wars, and conflicts, and may our world become a place of greater safety, peace, and stability for all.
