Mr. Speaker, as–salaam alaikum.
Muslims around the world are celebrating Eid Milad un Nabi, commemorating the birth, life and message of Prophet Muhammad. Peace be upon him and his teachings, which many Canadians hold dear and will celebrate over the coming days.
Many Surrey-based masjids and organizations are holding prayers and celebrations. In my riding of Surrey—Newton, I have joined, and continue to look forward to joining, all those in honouring Prophet Muhammad. Peace be upon him and his message of harmony, peace and love.
On behalf of all members in the House, I would like to extend my best wishes to all Muslim sisters and brothers celebrating Eid Milad un Nabi.
Allah hafiz.
