OIC Appeals To Muslims To Make Aidilfitri A Renewed Beginning

KUALA LUMPUR: The Organisation of Islamic Cooperation has called on Muslims all over the world to make this Aidilfitri a renewed beginning and to internalise the spirit of Ramadan.

OIC secretary-general Tan Sri Iyad Ameen Madani said Muslims should portray the genuine character of Islam, its values, culture and civilisation in the way they live their lives.

They should also provide a model for learning, productivity, social justice, tolerance and active contribution to the intellect, progress and well-being of the world, he said in an Aidilfitri message.

Madani called on “the will, conscious and mind of Muslims to rid Islam and Muslim societies from the literal, narrow-minded and astray voices that betray and smear Islam and equate it with extremism, violence and primitivism”.

“Let us make this Eid (Aidilfitri) a renewed beginning of who Muslims truly are and what their vision for the future is,” he said in a statement from Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

The statement was made available to Bernama here.
