In the name of Allah the Merciful
Praise be to Allah, peace and blessings be upon the Prophet the trustworthy Muhammad (PBUH), and his family and companions, Till the Day of Judgment
God the Almighty honored the human beings when He did not forget to mention them in the book of guidance and light, in which they go back to the spacious of faith, confirmation and knowledge. The book, which is based on the rules of enjoining and forbidding {such are the bounds set by Allah, he that exceeds the bounds of Allah wrongs himself} [Al-Talaq: 1], fulfill the believer of one God, through his sincere commitment, the purposes of the Creator knowing the innermost of your chests.
The believer, while picking from his heart the fruits of obedience through the duty of fasting and its fruit of piety, opens for himself then the doors of the meanings and subtleties, which reveals the veil of the worldly life, {Allah guides whom He will to the Straight Path} [Al-Baqarah: 213] and if he reaches the breakfasting he must see clear every covering and confusion, to see the truth very clearly, in himself, in his family, in his community, in his own and in his nation, he wants to do good as Allah His Almighty have shown him of wisdom and good measure, acquits himself, and saves his promise, do not come out of the obedience to committing sins. This sublime thing applies to everyone, and all the creation is equal to God, He judges the poor and the rich equally. God Almighty said {so when the Horn is blown, no relationship will there be among them that Day, nor will they ask about one another} [Al Mu’minun]. This is what we were taught from God’s religion and this is what must be the fruit of worships, which is in the month of Ramadan full of blessings, according to the believer in his quest.
There is no right meaning of the above without reflection of its effects in society and in the state. If worship is a matter of the faithful, the conscience of mankind and the disclosure is a matter of the creation all without exception, especially those who are holding the position of decision, responsibility and judgment. What about our society, and what about our state and those who sit in the chairs of authority, administration and public affairs? Do those in power rise to the level of the frightening dangers surrounding us from every direction? Do they bravely initiate to embark on fruitful work that drives the mechanisms of democratic practice? We are concerned when we have in mind what are the sincere answers to these legitimate questions which are in any case the words of all the Lebanese.
The call of reason must be raised as well as the call to consciousness, to moderation, and the voice of the state, and the whisper of the reason, and that we can ascertain all that our country's survival is a protection for everyone, and not to the possibility of never to survive in this tempestuous sea, but perfect symbiosis and solidarity with the cooperation and commitment to prevent tension and the adoption of logic and dialogue, and keep Lebanon from the furnace of sedition, and involvement in the accounts of others, and in the eternal vigilance of the Israeli enemy.
In fact, we see actually some sights of hope in the men who put all their efforts to overcome the storms with fewer losses. We are also fortified when we see our Savior military faithful to the national emblem. We see them constant, vigilant, brave, loyal, offering sacrifices, and doing along with all the security forces great efforts in the defense of the unified Lebanon’s population. We support the current government in order to protect the stability and we call to accelerate the election of a president of the republic in order to straighten up the national policy on the rules of the Constitution and the organize the legitimate work of the institutions, so that Lebanon keep up its Arab and international role as a partisan of the rightful cases, a haven for the persecuted and a space for freedom. We could not imagine a Lebanese cedar planted outside this enlightened humanitarian field.
What is happening in the area leads us to stick more than ever by our previous calls to reunion and confirmation of the Islamic unity as well as the confirmation of the Islamo-Christian national union. This fact alone cuts off all forms of extremism and threats derived from the suspicious behavior that aim at sowing discord among Muslims.
As regards to the Druze Unitarian Community, our approach is a covenanted and national approach at the Lebanese level; it has an Arabic origin that it is aware of the Islamic dimension in his overall vision. There is no harm in repeating the confirmation on the historical constants of Bani Maarouf (the Druze Unitarian), and their abidance by their belonging to the land, to their Islamic religion, the true religion of tolerance and moderation as well as to their Arab identity.
We warn our children in the entire world of the various intrigues and suspicious attempts aimed at getting them involved one way or another in sliding with serious consequences, calling to be always oriented toward their historical slogans for which they have often made precious sacrifices defending their country and nation. The Druze Unitarian will always be suffering for their Islamic Union, protecting their dignity and sticking by their land and home countries, since it consists on their own history, their present and their permanent future.
We ask God to inspire us to the right path, to guide our steps toward every right path, to fulfill our hearts with the love of goodness over everything else, to bless our country and populations, in particular Palestine, Syria, Iraq and Yemen, with security, stability, justice and relief, and to finally return it on us as well as on the people with guidance, safety and pride, there is no god but Him, the Knower expert and the Responsive and the Answerer.
