RNA – Referring to the arrival of Eid al-Fitr, Ayatollah Sayyed Hashem Hoseyni-Bushehri, the vice president of the Society of Seminary Teachers of Qom, said, “Eid al-Fitr [Festival of the Breaking of the Fast] is a festival of servitude such that after a month of fasting, supplication, the secret and need of God Almighty, this festival was given in order for the people to be rewarded for their deeds.”
The secretary of the Supreme Council of Seminaries continued, “In fact, fitr means returning to monotheism and blessed are those who fasted during this month and were able to take advantage of the gates of God’s mercy which were opened.”
Ayatollah Hoseyni-Bushehri emphasized, “On the other hand, it’s a pity for those who couldn’t benefit from this great divine grace for any reason and were deprived of it.”
The member of the Assembly of Experts of the Leadership emphasized that Ramadhan was a blessed month for all people, “People must not think that there is only one day of Eid because according to a narration from Imam Ali, every day that one doesn’t sin is a day of Eid.”
His Eminence called for the people to be careful of and contemplate on the achievements of the holy month of Ramadhan and said, “This month is the month of the forgiveness of sins, acceptance of deeds and distance from Satan and after this month we must no longer enter the stage of sin.”
He said, “It’s expected that just as the people engaged in assisting others during this holy month of Ramadhan, they will continue it throughout the year.”
In conclusion, Ayatollah Hoseyni-Bushehri pointed out, “God-willing, all the believers will take care of what they have achieved in this holy month, and the Coronavirus will disappear from the world.”
