[WARREN, MI] As we bid farewell to the blessed month of Ramadan and welcome the joyous occasion of Eid al-Fitr, I extend my warmest congratulations to you, your families, and loved ones. May this Eid be filled with blessings, happiness, and the abundant mercy of Allah.
During this special time, let us reflect on the spiritual journey we embarked upon throughout Ramadan. We dedicated ourselves to fasting, prayer, and acts of worship, seeking closeness to our Creator. As we celebrate Eid, let us carry forward the spirit of devotion and commitment beyond the blessed month.

Remember, Eid is not just a celebration but also a reminder to continue our journey towards righteousness and piety. Let us strive to maintain the good habits and practices we cultivated during Ramadan, including regular prayers, recitation of the Qur’an, and acts of charity.
As we gather with family and friends to celebrate, let us not forget those who are less fortunate, particularly our brothers and sisters in Gaza and other parts of the world facing hardship and adversity. Let our joy be tempered with compassion and solidarity as we remember them in our prayers and extend a helping hand to those in need.
Moreover, let us observe the Sunnah of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (SAW) on this special day. Let us adorn ourselves in our finest attire, offer the Eid prayer with humility and gratitude, and exchange greetings of peace and goodwill with one another.
As we rejoice in the blessings of Eid, let us also pray for peace, justice, and prosperity for all. May Allah (SWT) grant relief to the oppressed, alleviate the suffering of the needy, and shower His mercy upon the entire ummah.
Once again, Eid Mubarak to you and your families. May Allah (SWT) accept our fasting, prayers, and good deeds, and may He (SWT) bless us with joy, prosperity, and guidance in the days ahead.
With heartfelt wishes,
Imam Mustapha Elturk
Ameer of IONA
