Eid al-Fitr 2016: David Cameron’s message

“I want to send my very best wishes to Muslims at home and around the world celebrating Eid. Eid Mubarak.” – Prime Minister David Cameron.

Communities Secretary Greg Clark also wishes Muslims across the country a happy Eid.

Mr Clark said: “As the holy month of Ramadan comes to an end I would like to wish Muslims across the country a happy Eid.

“In the last month, mosques have opened their doors and invited people of the Muslim faith, of other faiths and of none to attend iftars, to enjoy a fast-breaking meal and learn more about what Ramadan means.

“This is particularly important at a time when we must all look to come together to combat the prejudices that can blight our communities.

“So I want to take this opportunity to wish Eid Mubarak to everyone marking this special occasion.”
