TOBB President M. Rifat Hisarcıklıoğlu, who published a message on the Feast of Sacrifice, stating that holidays are very special days, with love, brotherhood and sharing coming to the fore.
TOBB President Hisarcıklıoğlu’s statement is as follows:
“We are once again experiencing the joy of celebrating the blessed Feast
of Sacrifice. Holidays, which are the most beautiful occasion to engender the
feelings of solidarity and brotherhood are the celebration of the belief that goodness
will overcome wickedness, peace will overcome war, truths will overcome
falsehoods and love will overcome hatred.
As a society which has adopted the mantra that, ‘the most beneficent of
men is those who are beneficent unto others,’ we must always be aware of the
beauty and cohesion brought about by cooperation and solidarity.
That which makes societies strong are the bonds bring their members
together. It is undoubtedly tolerance, sharing in sorrow and joy, and never
giving up loving each other which render these bonds robust.
The Feast of Sacrifice speaks of sharing, fraternity, solidarity. There
is love and peace at its core. Our greatest wealth is our love.
With these feelings and thoughts, on behalf of the Turkish business
world, I celebrate the Feast of Sacrifice of our nation and the whole Islamic
world; May we experience many holidays filled with peace and love through unity
and solidarity.”
