President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. called on the public to show “solidarity” with Muslims as the nation observed the celebration of Eid’l Adha or Feast of Sacrifice on Wednesday.
In a message, Marcos reminded Filipinos of the importance of “sacrifice and selflessness” that reflects the occasion.
Eid’l Adha or the Feast of Sacrifice commemorates Ibrahim’s willingness to sacrifice his son Ishmael as an act of obedience to God’s command. “For me, this occasion reflects Filipino Muslims’ quiet and enduring sacrifice toward a peaceful and prosperous life in our home country. I assure you that these efforts aren’t lost on us public servants in government and that the administration of President Ferdinand ‘Bongbong’ R. Marcos Jr. continues to pursue genuine inclusive progress that would uplift everybody’s lives,” the House leader said.
