Eid-ul-Azha was
celebrated with religious zeal and fervours by the Pakistani Community living
in France, says a press release received here today from Paris.
In his message to the community on
the auspicious occasion, Ambassador of Pakistan to France Moin ul Haque said
that Eid ul Azha was an important festival celebrated in memory of the supreme
sacrifice of Prophet Ibrahim (A.S.) and his complete submission
to the will of Allah.
The Ambassador said that best way
for all Muslims to celebrate this festival is to share their wealth and
prosperity with the needy and underprivileged members of the society.
In his message, the Ambassador also
extended his greetings to those members of the Pakistani community who have
performed Hajj this year.
Special arrangements were made for
the Pakistani Community to offer Eid ul Azha Prayers in the premises of the
Embassy.
