The group, in a statement by its National Coordinator, Comrade Shafi Ismail Alada urged the Muslims to use the festival period for sober reflections.

It also congratulated Muslim faithful on the successful completion of the Ramadan fast.

The Forum commended them for their commitment and steadfastness in completing the 30 days of Ramadan fast.
