MANILA, Philippines – NAGPAABOT ng pagbati si Bangsamoro Autonomous Region of Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) Chief Minister Abdulraof A. Macacua sa “all Muslim brothers and sisters across the region and beyond” na nagdiriwang ngayon ng Eid Al-Adha.
Ang Eid al-Adha, na kilala rin bilang “Feast of Sacrifice” ay isa sa pinakamahalagang pagdiriwang sa Islam. Isa itong relihiyosong pagdiriwang sa Islam na ginugunita tuwing ika-10 ng Dhu al-Hijjah, ang ikalawang buwan sa Islamikong kalendaryo. Ito ay nagpapahayag ng pasasalamat at pagsunod sa utos ng Diyos na ipinakita ni Abraham (Ibrahim) noong sinaunang panahon.
“Today, we remember the devotion of Propher Ibrahim (AS), who was willing to sacrifice what was most dear to him out of pure obedience to Allah SWT. His story is not just one of sacrifice but of trust that Allah’s wisdom is more significant than out understanding,” ayon kay Macacua.
“As a region shaped by both struggle and resilience, the Bangsamoro is well aware of the meaning of sacrifice. We have come this far not by the strength of one but through unity guided by faith,” aniya pa rin.
Binigyang diin ni Macacua ang mensahe ng pagkakaisa.
“Let this Eid be a time to deepen unity, to heal divisions, and to recommit ourselves to serving the people with justice, humility, and compassion. In these days of Dhul Hijjah, may our prayers be accepted, our intentions purified, and our hearts softened toward one another,” ang sinabi ni Macacua.
“May Allah SWT guide us, as leaders and citizens, to always choose what is right, even when it is difficult. May Allah SWT accept our sacrifices and reward our obedience. Eid Mubarak to every household in the Bangsamoro,” dagdag na wika nito. Kris Jose
