Obama
Sends Best Wishes To Muslims Around The World
President Barack Obama on Wednesday offered best wishes to Muslims in the United States and around the world as they observe the holy fasting month of Ramadan. "All of us must remember that the world we want to build -- and the changes that we want to make -- must begin in our own hearts, and our own communities," Obama said in a statement released by the White House. US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton also issued a statement offering the traditional holiday greeting: "Ramadan Kareem." "Ramadan is a time for self-reflection and sharing. American Muslims make valuable contributions to our country every day and millions will honor this month with acts of service and giving back to their communities," she said. Both Clinton and Obama were set to host Iftar, the meal that breaks the daily fast. Clinton was co-hosting an event with dozens of embassies in the US capital, while Obama was to receive guests for the meal at the White House. Obama said the rituals of Ramadan "remind us of the principles that we hold in common, and Islam's role in advancing justice, progress, tolerance, and the dignity of all human beings."
