Abdul Ghafour, Arab News JEDDAH, 3 November 2005 - Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah yesterday called upon the deviants to repent and return to the right path on the happy occasion of Eid Al-Fitr. "Our Eid message is one of love, tolerance and mercy to our brothers in Islam and humanity," he added. In a joint Eid message to the nation, King Abdullah and Crown Prince Sultan said Eid Al-Fitr, which marks the end of the fasting month of Ramadan, was another opportunity to promote the spirit of mutual affection and love in society. "Nobody should be left out from enjoying the happiness of Eid. We should cultivate hope and gladness in every corner. We should also support weak members of our society in a show of solidarity, which is the essence of our faith," the message said. In their message, which was read out on Saudi Television by Culture and Information Minister Iyad Madani, the king and crown prince also remembered the security officers who died during bombings and gunbattles with Al-Qaeda militants across the country since May 2003. The Eid Al-Fitr is being celebrated throughout the Kingdom today. A variety of Eid programs have been planned in Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam, Madinah, Abha and other major cities. The Eid message emphasized the moderate teachings of Islam and its tolerance. "Our faith will not be complete without believing in all prophets and their messages," it said. "At the peak of its progress, the Islamic civilization was a unique example for coexistence and interaction with other cultures," it explained. The Saudi leaders denounced Al-Qaeda militants, who carried out a series of terrorist bombings and shootings in the country, and hoped that God would guide them to the right path and give them the vision and the clarity of mind to see the truth. "They should realize that this country is ruled in accordance with Shariah." King Abdullah called on the faithful to follow the good morals they obtained during the holy month, especially the readiness to engage in good deeds, throughout their life. He reminded them of the great blessings of God, especially those of Islam and the Qur'an. The Eid message also referred to the security and stability prevailing in the Kingdom as well as the government's unfailing efforts in the service of the two holy mosques and pilgrims. Meanwhile, King Abdullah and Prince Sultan sent messages of Eid Al-Fitr greetings to world leaders. They also received telephone calls from several Arab leaders including Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh, Algerian President Abdelaziz Bouteflika and Jordan's King Abdallah.
