In his message on the observance of Eid'l Adha or the Feast of Sacrifice, Marcos said the sacred occasion offers the nation a unique opportunity to reflect on the life and tale of Ibrahim, whose steadfast faith and unconditional love for Allah have become the core virtues of Islamic teaching.
“As we understand the significance of this commemoration, we feel deep within ourselves that, in nurturing our relationship with others and the Almighty, we are strengthened by our past and fueled with lessons to face tomorrow with grit and resilience,” he said.
“I earnestly pray that we may also have what it takes to be courageous even at the expense of our comfort and security,” Marcos said.
Through dependence on God and on life of prayer, the President expressed hope that Filipinos will have the clarity of mind and kindness of heart to overcome the trials that prevent them from achieving true peace.
