Tengrinews.kz — President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev has extended his greetings to the people of Kazakhstan on the holiday of Qurban Ait (Eid al-Adha), reports the presidential press service.
The text of the message was published on Wednesday, May 27, by the Akorda press service.
"Dear compatriots! I cordially congratulate the Muslims of Kazakhstan on the holy holiday of Qurban Ait!
This holiday holds a special place in the spiritual life of our people and is eagerly awaited with great enthusiasm throughout the Islamic world.
It calls for mercy, compassion, moral self-improvement, mutual respect, trust, and solidarity.
The blessed days of Qurban Ait remind us of the importance of supporting one another, honoring our elders, and sharing responsibility for the nation's well-being. This is a time of maturity, deep reflection, and a true understanding of Islam, which is founded on justice, purity of thought, and humanism.
The progressive values of Islam and other traditional religions serve as a reliable foundation for the spiritual development of our people, the continuity of generations, and unity and harmony in our society.
For all of us, nothing is higher than the Sovereignty and Independence of our country. The Constitution is a mirror of our people's daily life and the core of our identity. Therefore, strengthening national unity and ensuring interethnic and interfaith harmony are unwavering priorities of state policy and vital constitutional tasks.
Protecting the stability and harmony of our country as the apple of our eye is the duty of every responsible citizen. Against the backdrop of complex global challenges, this is the basis for the further prosperity of our Motherland and a key condition for building a Just and Progressive Kazakhstan.
I am convinced that our main strength lies in unity and creative patriotism.
I wish all my compatriots good health, happiness, and prosperity!
Happy Qurban Ait!"
Heads of state and international organizations send congratulations to Tokayev
