The Director General, in a statement signed by his Special Assistant, Mr Charvid enjoined Muslims to follow the exemplary leadership of the Holy Prophet by promoting peaceful co-existence.
Mr Charvid pointed out the significance of Eid-el-Maulud anchored on love, sacrifice, obedience, tolerance and charity, as exemplified by the deeds and teachings of Holy Prophet Muhammad, saying such will go a long way to engender national development.
Mr Charvid further said that Prophet Mohammed showed understanding for the various faiths and beliefs in Madinah during his lifetime and never discriminated against any religion, groups or persons during his lifetime.
