Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah, his family, his companions, and those who follow him, and to proceed:

To the Islamic Ummah, the best nation brought forth for mankind:

كُنْتُمْ خَيْرَ أُمَّةٍ أُخْرِجَتْ لِلنَّاسِ تَأْمُرُونَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَتَنْهَوْنَ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَتُؤْمِنُونَ بِاللَّهِ

"You are the best nation produced [as an example] for mankind. You enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong and believe in Allah..." (Surah Aal-Imran 3:110)

To the pure and pious dawah carriers, and we do not sanctify anyone before Allah...

To the honorable visitors of the page...

I congratulate you on Eid al-Fitr, asking Allah (swt) to accept your fasting, your night prayers, and all your good deeds, and to make us and you among those He redeems from the Fire in this holy month...

At-Tirmidhi narrated in his Sunan from Abu Hurairah regarding the nights of Ramadan, saying: The Messenger of Allah (saw) said:

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «وَلِلَّهِ عُتَقَاءُ مِنْ النَّارِ وَذَلكَ كُلُّ لَيْلَةٍ»

"The Messenger of Allah (saw) said: 'Allah has people whom He redeems from the Fire, and that happens every night.'" (Narrated by at-Tirmidhi and al-Hakim in his Mustadrak)

I also ask Him (swt) that this Eid be the beginning of good and blessings for the Muslims after this compulsive rule (mulk jabri) in which we have lived for a hundred years, so that the next Eid comes while we are shaded by the banner of the Rightly Guided Khilafah, the banner of La ilaha illa Allah Muhammad Rasulullah. And that is not difficult for Allah... Ahmad narrated in his Musnad from Hudhayfah bin al-Yaman that the Messenger of Allah (saw) said:

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «...ثُمَّ تَكُونُ مُلْكًا جَبْرِيَّةً فَتَكُونُ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ أَنْ تَكُونَ ثُمَّ يَرْفَعُهَا إِذَا شَاءَ أَنْ يَرْفَعَهَا ثُمَّ تَكُونُ خِلَافَةً عَلَى مِنْهَاجِ النُّبُوَّةِ» ثُمَّ سَكَتَ

"The Messenger of Allah (saw) said: '...Then there will be a compulsive rule, and it will remain as long as Allah wills it to remain, then He will remove it when He wills to remove it. Then there will be a Khilafah upon the method of Prophethood.' Then he (saw) remained silent." (Narrated by Ahmad and at-Tayalisi in his Musnad)

In conclusion, I convey to you my peace and pray for your well-being, and may Allah accept your acts of worship...

Wassalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh.

Day of Eid al-Fitr, 1st of Shawwal 1442 AH Your brother, Corresponding to 13/05/2021 CE Ata Bin Khalil Abu al-Rashtah
