The Director General, National Productivity Centre NPC Dr Kashim Akor has sent a message of felicitation to staffs of the Centre and Nigerians.
In his Eid- el- fitr message made available to the media on Friday to mark the occasion, Dr Kashim Akor described the occasion as very unique for Moslems and an opportunity for spiritual renewal after the sacred month.
He urged Moslems to take advantage of the long month holy period to continue to live in the state of grace now and forever.
“Today, I join millions of people around the world, to wish our Muslim brothers and sisters in the Centre happy Eid-el-Fitri. Today’s celebration is very unique for Muslims. It is a feast to mark the end of a month-long spiritual renewal after 29 days of fasting, prayers, and other religious acts.”
“The Holy Month of Ramadan is very significant to Muslims across the world, as one of the major pillars of Islam, which teaches abstinence from worldly pleasures, steadfastness in prayers and total submission to the will of Allah according to the Quranic injunctions.”
“I want to admonish all of us that we should continue to live in that state of grace. Let us continue to imbibe and show that something important has passed through us and let it reflect in our words, our lives and our relationship with fellow human beings.”
*We should not limit the goodness of our deeds to Ramadan period alone, we must make the lessons and acts our ways of life.
May the peace and love of Almighty Allah be with us.”
He wish Nigerians a happy celebration and many more years of celebration.
