Eid-ul-Fitr 2015: A message from the Lib Dems

Liberal Democrat Party President Sal Brinton sends greetings to Muslims everywhere at Eid-ul-Fitr.

Liberal Democrat Party President Sal Brinton said:

"As the holy month of Ramadan comes to an end, I would like to wish Muslims in the United Kingdom and all over the world a happy Eid-ul-Fitr.

"Eid is a joyful occasion and a time for family, friends and neighbours to come together and celebrate the common values that unite us in our humanity.

"But even during this festive time, the attitude of Muslims to remember those in parts of the world less fortunate than us is exemplary.

"Throughout Ramadan, Muslim communities collect and distribute Zakat-ul-fitr so that all Muslims are able to participate in the celebration of Eid. And for that, I commend you.

"May the auspicious occasion of Eid bring you peace, prosperity and happiness.

"Eid Mubarak."
