The celebration of Eid reinforces to us all that unity, respect and peace is the way forward.
This was highlighted by Deputy Prime Minister and the Leader of NFP Professor Biman Prasad in his Eid message.
Professor Prasad says in Fiji regardless of one's religion or culture, we all know that Eid is a time of joy and reflection for our Muslim community.
He says it is the end of 30 days of fasting throughout the holy month of Ramadan, the observance of which is considered one of the pillars of Islam.
Professor Prasad adds Eid is a significant event in our nation as it is the culmination of practice of self-discipline, increased prayers and charity towards the under-privileged and less fortunate.
