While His beloved and the beloved of our hearts, Muhamedi a.s, has advised us with these words: "The most beloved action for Allah after performing worship is when a believer enjoys his brother, hence another believer. And in this way, forgiven and cleansed from sins, today we should all enjoy together. There is no resentment today, resentment, jealous, upset, resentment and jealousy, today there is only joy, HAPPINESS, love, harmony and respect between each other. Today we show humanity that we are humble, grateful, obedient and thankful to our Creator but at the same time loving and respectful of each other and society. ” - he said.
