Michelle and I extend our greetings for a happy Eid-ul-Adha to Muslims
worldwide and wish safe travels to those performing Hajj. This year,
nearly three million pilgrims from more than 160 countries - including
the United States - have gathered in Mecca and neighboring sites to
perform the Hajj rituals and stand together in prayer.
On Eid, Muslims around the world will commemorate Abraham’s
willingness to sacrifice his son, and distribute food to those less
fortunate - a reminder of the shared values and the common roots of
three of the world's major religions.
On behalf of the American people, we extend our best wishes during
this Hajj season – Eid Mubarak and Hajj Mabrour.
