Masisi wishes Muslim community Happy Ramadan

18 May 2018

As Muslims in Botswana begin fasting for the holy month of Ramadan, on behalf of the Government and fellow Batswana and on my own behalf, I extended our best wishes to our fellow Muslims.

For Muslims, this month is an opportunity to focus on reflection and spiritual growth, forgiveness, patience and resilience, compassion for those less fortunate.

The holy Qu’ran says: “O You who Believe! Fasting is prescribed to you as it was prescribed to those before you, that you may learn piety and righteousness” (2: 183). Have a peaceful and happy Ramadan Kareem! ENDS
