In a press release Chairman of the groups Badruddin Hassan said this month is a special gift to the Muslim nation which came about as a result of Allah’s great love for the Prophet of Islam. It provides an opportunity for Muslims to harness great benefits such as peace, love and tranquility and inculcates qualities that are associated with great character.
“Generations of nations are blessed by this month and its great boons….we are forcibly brought to be a part of the plight of our poor Muslim brothers and sisters in the compulsory act of giving charity,” the release said, adding that the act of giving will make followers “much richer in this life and the hereafter.”
In this age of political instability, ethnic and racial violence, greed, materialism and uncertainties, giving is a gift to the world, the release said, adding that “We need to extract the ingredients of nation building, religious and spiritual codes and appropriate moral, social and economic disciplines to establish strong progressive nations populated with citizens who are cognizant of their duty first to God, the Creator and to fellow occupants of this earth.”
