Oyo Democratic Alliance greets Muslims at Ramadan
Oyo
Democratic Alliance has congratulated Muslims in Nigeria and Oyo State in general
as they commence another season of Ramadan.
ODA
Chairman, Wole Adedoyin , in a statement hinted that Ramadan remains the
holiest of all months in the Islamic calendar, adding that Ramadan fast is one of the five pillars of Islam which
Muslims strictly adhere to in line with injunction of the Almighty Allah.
The
Group noted that Ramadan offers an opportunity to draw closer to Allah and
deepen relationship with Him in submission to his will. He therefore urged
Muslims to use the period to pray to Allah to end the Covid-19 pandemic virus
currently ravaging our country and the world at large.
Noting that the Ramadan fast teaches Muslims
to practice piety, self-discipline, self-control, sacrifice, tolerance,
justice, and empathy for the less fortunate in society,
Adedoyin
finally called on all adherents of the Islamic faith to reflect on these
lessons during the 30 days fasting period.
