97} Peace and blessing be upon whom Allah sent as a mercy for all mankind, our beloved Prophet Muhammad, who said "He who performs Hajj, without committing obscenity, nor wickedness, will return home free of sins as on the day he was born". Dear brothers and sisters, pilgrims to the House of Allah: Dear brothers and sisters, peoples of our Islamic nation everywhere: Assamou Aleykum Wa Rahmatou Allah Wa Barakatouhou I salute you from the surrounding of the Ancient House of Allah, the land of the last revelation, the Islamic message which promotes forgiveness and dialogue. From the sacred shrine of Mina, I congratulate you and all of the Islamic Umma all over the globe on the occasion of Eid Al-Adha, which Allah described as the grand day of Hajj. This day comes after pilgrims have stood at Arafat chanting Talbya, Takbeer, and Tahleel. I pray to Allah to bestow His blessings upon my dear pilgrims, respond to their supplications and forgive their sins. Praise is due to Allah for enjoying those moments which are full of faith's tranquility and abstaining from materialistic temptations. In these moments, they are all raising their hands full of submission with hope and fear of one, absolute lord, hoping that their Hajj and supplications will be accepted. I also pray to Allah Almighty to accept your Hajj, supplications and good deeds. --More 15:15 LOCAL TIME 12:15 GMT تغريد
