Dear compatriots!

I congratulate you on the occasion of the blessed Ramadan Holiday and convey my best wishes and wishes to all of you.

Ramadan, the sultan of eleven months, which embodies spiritual and moral perfection and noble intentions, and purifies the souls and thoughts of people, is already coming to an end. In this blessed month, in which our holy book, the Holy Quran, was revealed, Muslims gain the opportunity to fulfill their conscientious duties and obligations before God with dignity, and experience the joy of good deeds such as assistance, compassion and mercy.

For centuries, Azerbaijan has been one of the rare places where different faiths and beliefs have coexisted peacefully in a peaceful environment. Islam, which always calls humanity to peace, humanism and brotherhood, has historically played an exceptional role in preserving ethnic and cultural diversity in our society, establishing an environment of tolerance based on mutual respect and trust, and national and spiritual solidarity.

Dear sisters and brothers!

Every year, the month of Ramadan further strengthens the unity and equality of our people, becoming a celebration of kindness and good deeds. On these blessed days, I join your prayers for the peace, prosperity and progress of our state, and I respectfully commemorate the memory of our heroic martyrs who gave their lives for the independence and territorial integrity of Azerbaijan.

Once again, I extend my sincere congratulations to you and all our compatriots living in different corners of the world, and I wish your families happiness and abundant sustenance and blessings on your tables.

May Allah accept your fasting and prayers.

May your Ramadan holiday be blessed!

Ilham Aliyev

President of the Republic of Azerbaijan
