Today, 28th May 2026, marks the observance of the sacred festival of Eid al-Adha, celebrated with deep devotion by Muslims across the world.

According to Islamic belief, the Hajj commemoration symbolises the unwavering faith and unparalleled sacrifice of Prophet Ibrahim in devotion to Almighty Allah. The observance holds special significance as the pilgrimage to Mecca is regarded as the fifth of the five great obligations of Islam.

In a world increasingly affected by conflict and division, the Hajj festival offers a profound example of the importance of human solidarity and mutual compassion. I firmly believe that this gathering, where Muslims from all corners of the world come together irrespective of race, nationality or social standing to perform religious rites in unity, conveys to humanity a powerful message of equality and brotherhood.

Furthermore, even amidst the difficulties currently faced by the world due to the conflict situation in the Middle East, Muslim devotees undertaking the pilgrimage to Mecca continue to commemorate the immense sacrifice and devotion demonstrated by Prophet Ibrahim throughout his life.

The vision of our Government, too, is to build a compassionate and harmonious society founded on peace, unity and selflessness rather than selfishness. As we pursue this journey, I urge all citizens to embrace more closely in their lives the values embodied by the Hajj celebration, peace, brotherhood and sacrifice.

As we continue to enrich Sri Lankan society with spiritual values and move forward together in a spirit of brotherhood towards building a developed nation where the benefits of progress are shared by all, I extend my heartfelt wishes to the Muslim community in Sri Lanka and across the world for a blessed Eid al-Adha.

Eid – Mubarak!

I was honoured to meet with Rt.Hon. @winstonpeters, Minister of Foreign Affairs of New Zealand this afternoon. I thanked the Hon.

Minister Peters and I had a very constructive discussion on a variety of bilateral matters such as political, trade, sports, governance and the dynamic Sri Lankan community in New Zealand. We also exchanged views regarding the current global and regional developments and their impact.
