EID EL-KABIR: MD SAMEER CALLS ON CITIZENS TO EMULATE PROPHET IBRAHIM'S SPIRIT OF GIVING AND SHARING TO THE LESS PRIVILEGED IN LAILABA WARD AREA OF ARGUNGU
"I extend my warmest greetings to you all our Muslim faithful, on the joyous occasion of Eid-el-Kabir (the Feast of Sacrifice)".
Eid-el-Kabir commemorates the profound act of obedience and unwavering faith demonstrated by Prophet Ibrahim (A.S), who was prepared to sacrifice his beloved son Ismail in submission to the command of Almighty Allah (SWT). This divine instruction and the subsequent divine intervention exemplify the ultimate call for total surrender to the will of Allah SWT.
This sacred festival is also the spiritual climax of the Hajj pilgrimage, one of the five pillars of Islam. Hajj is more than a journey. It is a deeply personal act of worship that reflects self-discipline, devotion, and complete submission to Allah SWT. It is a once-in-a-lifetime obligation for those who are able, symbolizing unity, equality, and spiritual renewal.
"As we celebrate Eid-el-Kabir, let us not forget its true essence, which is obedience, sacrifice, compassion, and unity. It is a divine reminder for every Muslim to lead a life rooted in obedience to Allah SWT, sacrifice for the greater good, and service to humanity. I call upon all citizens of my constituency to reflect deeply on this sacred meaning and strive daily to embody these values not just during the festive season, but at all times".
"This season is also a moment of sober reflection for all of us.We must give thanks to Almighty Allah for the peace, development, and security we are witnessing across our beloved State. These gains are not by human efforts alone, but through divine grace, sustained prayers, and a collective commitment to peace and progress"
"His Excellency, Comrade Dr Nasiru Idris Kauran Gwandu have just marked the second anniversary in office. In the last two years in Kebbi State, His Excellency have been committed to the rapid transformation of our rural and urban communities through massive infrastructural development, revival and revitalization of the health and educational sectors, frontally fighting poverty, and strengthening our partnership with security forces to secure our dear state. I must state with all sense of humility and modesty that despite huge challenges, His Excellency have continued to deliver on his promises and mandate. He has recorded remarkable achievements in key sectors in the last two years of his administration".
"I humbly ask that you continue to support His Excellency, Comrade Dr Nasiru Idris Kauran Gwandu's administration and pray for our dear state, and the country, that Allah SWT may continue to guide, strengthen, and inspire us as he tackle the pressing challenges of governance, development, and security. May He grant him wisdom and enable him to lead with justice, fairness, and compassion".
"Let us also use this holy occasion to intercede and offer fervent prayers for the leadership of our great nation, especially our President, His Excellency Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR and all our leaders at all levels. May Almighty Allah grant them divine direction as they strive to build a righteous, peaceful, prosperous, and united Nigeria".
Ameen!
Eid Mubarak!
