In his message, the President said Eid'l Fitr — the Festival of Breaking the Fast — is more than just a celebration, but rather a testament to Filipinos' desire for shared humanity, strengthening bonds of family and friendship as well as unity.

"Beyond the values that Ramadan emphasized, let us continue to be inspired to extend our hands in service, uplift those in need and help find joy in those who seek it," Marcos said.

"Only through living with compassion and inclusivity can we appreciate and understand what Prophet Muhammad sought to accomplish — a life where harmony and love prevail upon us all," he added.
