Former President John Dramani Mahama has extended his well wishes to Ghanaian Muslims, as they a month long fasting and prayer.
In a Facebook post, Mr. Mahama asked for an “edifying Ramadan Mubarak” to all Muslims in the country.
“Sighting the sliver crescent moon symbolises Allah’s faithfulness and heralds the beginning of the holy month of Ramadan, marked by purification, generosity, and self-sacrifice.
“May this holy period of fasting and prayer instil in us love, empathy and compassion for one another, and bring to us, our families and our nation countless blessings,” he wrote.
He noted that despite the economic issues facing the nation, he is optimistic of Allah’s grace at the end of the period.
“Notwithstanding the many challenges we face as a people, we are assured of Allah’s unfailing grace.”
