DHAKA, June 6, 2025 (BSS) - Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus today greeted countrymen as well as the Muslims across the globe on the occasion of the holy Eid-ul-Azha.
In a message on the eve of the day, he hoped that the holy Eid-ul-Azha will bring welfare for all with the emergence of the spirit of sacrifice among all.
The Chief Adviser said, “Eid-ul-Azha, one of the largest religious festivals of Muslims, is a unique symbol of deep devotion and ultimate sacrifice to Allah Almighty. The great example of profound love, absolute obedience and sacrifice to Almighty Allah set by Hazrat Ibrahim (AS) by taking steps to sacrifice his beloved son Hazrat Ismail (AS) at the directive of Allah is incomparable in the history and it's a lesson for us.”
He said sacrifice of animals (Qurbani) instills the spirit of self-sacrifice in all and also teaches the spirit of sharing happiness and sorrow with relatives and neighbours and it gives lesson of tolerance.
Through the celebration of the festival (Eid-ul-Azha) every year, the Muslims establish a bond of solidarity and equality among the people by distributing the meat of sacrificed animal to their relatives and the poor and needy people, he added.
Noting that the Eid-ul-Azha teaches peace, compassion, sacrifice and brotherhood, Professor Muhammad Yunus said the sincere wish of the Eid festival should be sacrifice, self-purification, self-restraint, amity and harmony of Muslims.
“Let us hold the lessons of sacrifice of the holy Eid-ul-Azha and build the new Bangladesh after the July Uprising as a discrimination-free, happy, prosperous and peaceful Bangladesh,” the CA said.
He prayed to the Almighty Allah for the continued prosperity and progress of Bangladesh and people of the country.
