Ramadan
19 March, 2024
Iwan WALTERS (Greenvale) (16:34): Ramadan Mubarak! Muslims across Greenvale and around the world are observing the holy month of Ramadan. This sacred month represents a journey of spiritual reflection, self-discipline and compassion. I am deeply grateful to represent a community where faith is so important and where tens of thousands of residents are marking Ramadan, which this year aligns with the Christian Lenten period. I want to thank each mosque community, Islamic school and charitable organisation serving Greenvale for their immense contributions to our community. Organisations like Islamic Community Milli Gorus exemplify this through their good works and welcoming community celebrations, like the forthcoming 15th annual Street Iftar at Meadow Heights mosque, a great example of the harmony and hospitality that defines both Ramadan and my community of Greenvale. Indeed I am so fortunate to be spending so many evenings throughout Ramadan with my constituents to share the breaking of the fast at Iftar dinners. I wish all Muslim communities in Greenvale and around the world a peaceful and fulfilling holy month of Ramadan. Ramadan Mubarak!
