Understand The Principles Of Islam And Lead An Exemplary Life In The Society – Moslem Elder.
An elder of Bibiani Bekwai Anwiaso Constituency in the Western North Region, Alhaji Ibrahim Mohamed has stressed the need for the young men and women in the Moslem tradition to equip themselves with the principles of the Quran and lead lives worthy of emulation in the society.
Speaking to the Correspondent in an interview in reaction to the climax of the Moslems festival, Alhaji Ibrahim Mohamed thanked Allah for a successful occasion.
He noted that the occasion has though ended on a successful note, some of the youth would resort to actions that would tarnish the image of the religion.
Hence his call on such Moslems youth to avoid that negative habits to help maintain the already good name of Moslems.
He said in occasions like Eidl-Fitr, Moslems need to reflect on peace, love, unity and forgiveness of sins since the religion was established on a peaceful note.
Therefore one must be moderate when he or she decided to enjoy after the occasion.
If you fast for 30 solid days for forgiveness and break it with violence leading to police arrest or hospital admission, then what is the essence of the fast, Ibrahim asked.
He advised the Moslems youth to consult the elders for counseling if they lack the definition of the Moslem religion to help them to shape their lives.
As the occasion has ended on a peaceful note, Alhaji Ibrahim Mohamed called on Ghanaians irrespective of their political affiliations to pray for the president, Ministers of state among others for God’s blessings and protection towards the rapid socio economic development of the country.
