The Jama’atu Nasril Islam has felicitated with Muslims worldwide on this year’s Eid-el-Kabir celebration.
JNI Secretary-General, Khalid Aliyu, extended the felicitation in a statement on Sunday in Kaduna.
The statement said the JNI, under the leadership of its President-General and Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Muhammad S Abubakar, has congratulated all Muslim faithful on the occasion of this year’s Eid-el-Adhaa.
Aliyu said in the statement: “We beseech Allah, the Most Gracious and the Most Merciful, to record us in the register of those whom He will accept their respective sacrifices and all forms of worship done in these sacred days.
“Indeed, Allah needs neither the blood of our sacrifices nor the flesh of our respective rams.”
The Secretary-General reminded Nigerian Muslims of Arafah day fasting holding on Monday (today).
“We should equally not forget the constant remembrance of Allah, the Most High by glorifying Him and thanking him,” he said.
He called on Muslim faithful to be vigilant on security matters and be mindful of COVID 19.
He said the ongoing measures to curtail the security challenge in the country should be sustained with all the needed military hardware that would overwhelm criminals strength, adding: “We also implore governments across board to swiftly act more and talk less on the hassles.”
