Best wishes for Ramadan

Jun 9, 2016

In this holy month of fasting for Muslims, where prayers and works of mercy are lived with an ever greater intensity, particularly in caring for those who suffer, we ask that the God of Mercy may bestow a special blessing on us all and together we ask for the gift of Peace.

Ramadan“May glory be upon you my Lord, He who is the Adored One, the One to be adored, the Eternal One, who existed from all times, who loves us, whose Mercy and Power embrace the universe (…). You are the Adored One, Oh Lord, You are the Master who loves and forgives. Your forgiveness and Your mercy are infinite, Oh Lord, You help those who are afflicted, the Consoler in every grief, the Refuge for those whose heart is broken.” (From a prayer by Ali ibn Abi Talib, cousin and son-in-law of the Islamic prophet Muhammad)
