The NAMS president in person of *USMAN LAWAN UBANI* has felicitated all students particularly those from microbiology and biotechnology department on the occasion of the Eid el-Kabir.
Muslim pilgrims performing the Hajj in the holy city of Mecca had ascended the Mount Arafat yesterday, and today being 10th of Zhul hijjah mark the Eid el kabir celebration
In particular, the president wishes to congratulate his fellow Muslims for the opportunity to witness another Eid-ul-Adha another name for Eid el-Kabir, which is the Festival of Sacrifice, being the second of two Islamic holidays celebrated worldwide each year.
The President said and I quote: “I felicitate all students, particularly the Muslim faithful, on this year’s celebration.
“I assure you all that our administration will not rest or relent as to bringing new development to the department"
On this occasion of Eid-ul-Adha, the president urge all students to rise above personal, group and other interests, and to promote harmony and tolerance in dealing with one another at all times.
He added that "We must imbibe this lesson and make it a duty to sacrifice for others and to always remember those who are less fortunate than ourselves. Selfishness, greed have no place in our lives and in our dealings with one another"
*Eid-ul-Adha offers an opportunity to remember the submission of Prophet Ibrahim Alaihis-Salam to Allah, by which he taught the world the value of sacrifice in relating with one another*
It is a period of sharing, so share the little you have with your friends and families.
