The Council Chairman of Qua’an-Pan Local Government Council, Hon. Ernest Abner Da’a has sent best wishes to Muslims as they commence 30 days of Ramadan fasting.
This was contained in a press release signed by Mathias Yengoet Dajan SSA Media, Publicity and Protocol to the Executive Chairman. Qua’an-Pan LGC and made available to SUNDAY STANDARD recently in Jos.
The statement added that he urged them to use the season to put into practice the best teachings of Islam, such as sacrifice, kindness, and the love of humanity.
In a goodwill message to mark the beginning of the Holy month of Ramadan, issued by his Media Adviser, Hon. Stephen Sarki Musa, he said “as we begin the 30 days of fasting, let us not forget that Ramadan is not only about abstention from eating and drinking, but a reminder to us to refrain from all kinds of evils and transgressions that harm humanity.”
Da’a maintained that Ramadan is characterized by abstention from food and drinks from dawn to dusk, which brings both the rich and poor to share the experience of hunger, thereby strengthening the bonds between the haves and have-nots.
“I appeal to wealthy individuals and organizations to always share food and drinks with the less fortunate members of society.
” Because by sharing our blessings with others, God would multiply our rewards for good deeds,” Da’a pointed.
He prayed to God to strengthen them throughout the Holy Month of Ramadan.
