Archdiocese of Bhopal extends Eid-ul-Fitr greetings to all the brothers and sisters of the Muslim community. Archbishop Leo Cornelio SVD said in his message that, “Eid is a universal festival of brotherhood, bringing all the citizens as one family. Let us unite ourselves in prayer that the obedience and self denial may become the source of divine fulfillment for all humanity.”
Fr Maria Stephen, the PRO said that, “From the beginning of history sacrifices and penances were symbols of man’s self-offerings and obedience to God. Muslim brothers celebrate the feast of their month-long fast on the occasion of Eid. “For the Muslims, the Denials days are days of concentration on Allah and on the fellow Muslims. Ramadan is the name of Holy month in the Muslim Calendar during which the obligatory fast is kept by all Muslims, who are able to fast. ‘Eid-ul-Fitr’ is the feast of breaking the fast at the end of the month,” he added.
