“Ramadan is a special period for Muslims, where fasting, prayer and acts of compassion bring us closer together. Let us seize this opportunity to reaffirm our continued commitment to the progress and prosperity of our communities in the country and our entire nation,” she said.
Stressing the common goal of bringing together all Muslims during Ramadan, on behalf of Sheikh Walid Alhad, Dar es Salaam Sheikh, Sheikh of Temeke District, Zairai Mkoyogole, noted that the holy month is an opportunity to strengthen love and empathy not only among the Muslim community but among all people.

By practising compassion and generosity, we not only fulfil our religious duties but also contribute to a more harmonious and caring society. I have observed Puma Energy Tanzania’s commendable corporate social responsibility activities and I would urge you to continue with your programmes to benefit more marginalised communities,” he said.
