As the World Grandfather of Bektashism, I wish you all joy and happiness in your families, peace, love and brotherhood for everyone! On this day we commemorate the sacrifice of Ibrahim , the unparalleled patience of Ismail (pbuh), then only a child, and the compassion of his heroic mother, Hajira. The sacrifice proves to us that sacrifice, patience and human compassion are the most pleasing works to God. Let's reflect, for harmony and hope, that with the help of the Great God, we will go through these difficult times and the many social problems in our country together.
Happy Kurban Bayram! God bless you all!”
