"I congratulate Russian Muslims on the holiday of Eid al-Fitr, which concludes the holy month of Ramadan.

For centuries, this holiday has embodied the aspirations of believers for moral improvement, mercy and compassion, and drawn them to the enduring values ​​of Islam.

I would like to point out that Russian Muslims deeply respect the historical and spiritual traditions of their ancestors and celebrate this holiday widely within their communities and families. A popular custom is to hold large-scale charitable, cultural, educational, and children's events throughout the holy month.

Muslim organizations make a constructive contribution to strengthening the institution of the family, educating youth, developing constructive dialogue with government and public institutions, and devoting tireless attention to the implementation of patriotic, educational, and humanitarian initiatives. And, of course, special words of gratitude go to the followers of Islam who, shoulder to shoulder with their comrades, fight for the freedom and independence of the Motherland and provide support to the families and friends of the heroes.

I wish you health, success and all the best.
