CHAIRMAN MESSAGE
There is no glory in star or blossom till looked upon by a loving eye; There is no fragrance in April breezes till breathed with joy as they wander by. It is true that happiness does depend on the state of mind and now is the moment for us to step out from the pool of uncertainty into the showers of blessings. We all have been tested the challenging times so it’s our turn to sit back and take a deep breath of relief as we are about to embrace the 4th month of the year ‘21 - the month of April. With that being said, April is not only a month, it is an emotion. A peaceful emotion which brings lots of joy, moments of happiness, togetherness and laughter with itself in the form of Easter. It has become a day when family and friends come together and the bonds grow stronger. Candy eggs and special treats are shared with each other, and you might spend the entire day in the company of people you love and care about. Easter is also the time to wish the best to your friend and loved ones. You share the message of God with everyone and wish to bring happiness, peace, and love into their lives. And also the holy period of all muslims around the world is here. Ramadan, which is the ninth month in the islamic calendar, is a time when followers of the faith observe intense fast from dawn to dusk (roza) in the name of the Almighty.
People break their fast with feasts or Iftar which take place after sunset. Considered an opportune time to come closer to God, it is observed to remind people of the sufferings of the less fortunate. During this time, devotees are encouraged to observe the five daily prayers on time, to use their downtime just before breaking their fast at sunset to recite Quran and intensify the remembrance of God. Have a peaceful and happy Ramadan! As you do abstinence every day of this holy month of Ramadan, May the spirit of faith, the warmth of love and the power of togetherness are with you always. I wish Allah bless you with a happy Ramadan and usher upon your life with peace, health, and prosperity.
