In his message, Larijani felicitated Muslims on the occasion of Eid al-Fitr and stated that the day is a suitable opportunity to bolster brotherhood, unity and solidarity among Islamic countries.
He underlined that the plots hatched by ill-wishers to sow seeds of discord among Islamic sects will be defused through unity and solidarity.
Larijani expressed the hope that the Islamic Ummah (community) would successfully overcome all challenges and difficulties.
The Islamic community will disappoint all ill-wishers who try to stir tension among Muslims.
Muslims celebrate the Eid al-Fitr at the end of the fasting month of Ramadan, after seeing the crescent of the new moon of Shawwal lunar month on the night before the Eid day.
During Ramadan, the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, Muslims fast from dawn to sunset. They strengthen their self-restraint and faith during this month and try to avoid sin. It is believed that the first verse of the holy Quran was revealed to Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) in this month.
