Ramadan is a time of fasting, prayer and reflection, a time to honour the values at the heart of Islam which are showing compassion to all those in need and putting the needs of others before our own – this month, and throughout the year.

On behalf of SMIIC family, I would like to extend my warmest wishes to you in observing this holy month – a blessed period that reflects the essence of human solidarity and empathy and pray Almighty Allah to shower us with his endless mercy in these difficult times where we tragically continue to witness human suffering all around the world.

May Allah's peace, mercy and blessings be upon all of us.

Ramadan Kareem.
