DHAKA, Sept 15, 2024 (BSS) - President Mohammed Shahabuddin today greeted the countrymen and the Muslims across the world on the occasion of the holy Eid-e-Miladunnabi.

In his message, President Mohammed Shahabuddin said the holy Eid-e-Miladunnabi is a sacred and glorious day for the Muslims of the whole world. 

Allah had sent Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) to this world as 'Rahmatullil Alamin', a blessing for the entire universe, he added.

He (Muhammad) had emerged as 'Sirajam Monira', the enlightened in the world, the head of the state said, adding, "He showed the path of light in the era of sinful acts, injustice, falsehood and darkness and established a society based-on truth, beauty and justice". 

The President said the Prophet has been successful to discharge his duty of establishing 'Tawhid' by establishing Islam, the religion of peace, in the world with his limitless tolerance, hard work, devotion and sufferings and preached the messages of the holy Quran across the world. 

Apart from establishing a society based on equality and justice, the Prophet (PBUH) has given clear directives about women rights and dignity, dignity of labour and responsibility of employers, the President said. 

The speeches of the Prophet (PBUH) in his last Hajj will remain as the pathfinder for the mankind forever, he added. 

"May the Almighty Allah grant us to work for the welfare of the country, nation and humanity by following the noble ideals of the Holy Prophet (PBUH). Ameen," he continued.
