The Muslim Ummah of South West Nigeria, MUSWEN, the apex regional body for Muslims in the South West, has called on the faithful to sustain the spirit of devotion and righteousness beyond the holy month of Ramadan.
In a statement jointly signed by Alhaji Rasaki Oladejo, President and Professor Wole Abbas, Executive Secretary, to commemorate the Eid-el-Fitr celebrations, MUSWEN noted that the conclusion of fasting should not mark the end of the spiritual and moral transformation achieved during the sacred month.
It emphasized that the virtues of discipline, self-denial, generosity and intensified worship practised during Ramadan were intended to be a lifelong guide for every believer.
Reflecting on the current state of the nation, MUSWEN urged Muslims to continue offering special prayers for peace, security, and economic prosperity in Nigeria.
“As we celebrate this joyous occasion of Eid-el-Fitr, let us remember that the God we served during Ramadan is ever alive to reward our deeds throughout the year,” the Muslim group said.
MUSWEN concluded by praying that Almighty Allah accepts the fasting and prayers of the Ummah and grants the nation lasting stability.
