The Council Chairman of Qua’an-Pan Local Government Council, Hon. Ernest Abner Da’a has sent best wishes to Muslims as they commence 30 days of Ramadan fasting.

Hon. Da’a urged them to use the season to put the best teachings of Islam, such as sacrifice, kindness and the love of humanity, into practice.

In a goodwill message to mark the beginning of the Holy month of Ramadan, issued by his Media Adviser, Hon. Stephen Sarki Musa, on Wednesday, Da’a said:
“as we begin the 30 days of fasting, let us not forget that Ramadan is not only about abstention from eating and drinking, but a reminder to us to refrain from all kinds of evils and transgressions that harm humanity.”

According to the Council Boss, Ramadan is characterized by abstention from food and drinks from dawn to dusk, which brings both the rich and poor to share the experience of hunger together, thereby strengthening the bonds between the haves and have-nots.

“I appeal to wealthy individuals and organisations to always share food and drinks with the less fortunate members in the society.

”Because by sharing our blessings with others, God will multiply our rewards for good deeds.”

The Chairman prayed God for strength and spiritual will throughout the Holy Month of Ramadan.
