Presidential Message: Holiday Greetings to all Muslims Celebrating Eid al-Adha

Contact: White House, Office of the Press Secretary, 202-456-2580

 

WASHINGTON, Dec. 19 /Standard Newswire/ -- The following is released by the White House:

 

December 2007

 

I send holiday greetings to all Muslims celebrating Eid al-Adha.

 

During Eid al-Adha, Muslims around the world reflect on Abraham's unwavering faith and his trust in God when asked to sacrifice his son.  These four days are a time for Muslims to honor Abraham's obedience by celebrating with family and friends and showing gratitude for the many blessings bestowed by God.  This holiday also helps ensure the important values of compassion and devotion are passed on to future generations. 

 

America is a land of many beliefs, and our society is enriched by our Muslim citizens.  The kindness, generosity, and goodwill displayed by American Muslims during this special occasion and throughout the year have contributed to the strength and vitality of our Nation.  May all those observing Eid al-Adha find love and warmth during this joyous holiday. 

 

Laura and I send our best wishes for a memorable celebration.

 

GEORGE W. BUSH
