“On the auspicious occasion of Eidul Fitr I wish to greet the Muslims throughout the world and of Pakistan in particular and pray for peace and prosperity in Pakistan, peace for the Palestinians and throughout the world.
“The Eid celebrations this year must be subdued because of the havoc that has been brought upon the innocent Palestinian men, women and children on the one hand and the havoc caused by pandemic in many regions of the world on the other.
“My thoughts go out to the poor who are worst hit by pandemic induced unemployment and inflation and economic mismanagement. On this occasion I urge the affluent to share the joy of Eid with their less fortunate brethren.
“Tolerance, humility and a consideration for the less fortunate ones are the values taught by the holy month of Ramazan. The need for imbibing this spirit has never been so great as today.
“On this occasion let us also remember the enforcedly disappeared, those incarcerated in internment centres without due process and without trial and the victims of brutalities and injustices whether Muslims or Non Muslims. Our thoughts also go out to those who have laid down their lives in the cause of the country and the cause of peace.
