President Muizzu: National sincerity must come before political emotions

President Dr Mohamed Muizzu has said that the interests of the community must be placed ahead of personal interests. In a message shared on social media on the occasion of Victory Day, he conveyed the day's greetings to the people. The President said that national sincerity must be put ahead of political emotions. He said that ahead of the bitterness of leadership and envy, room must be given to national security, prosperity, and the happiness of every Maldivian individual, and that instead of remaining ruined in the servitude of debt, the prosperous dawn of prosperity must be welcomed. The President said that as approximately three centuries near completion since the events of Victory Day, it is very important to think deeply about how the world's affairs proceed today, how independence must be defended today, and about these matters. He said lessons must be drawn from the scenes shown by the lens of history, and the face of the future must be made bright. Conveying the day's greetings to the Maldivian people, the President prayed that the high blessings of Paradise be bestowed upon the soul of the national hero who, waging a strong jihad for independence and sovereignty and for the rights of the noble religion of Islam, saved the country from the intrigues of the Malabars, Dhonbandaarain Sultan Ghazi Hassan Izzuddin. He also prayed that the Most Merciful Allah grant good thinking and divine guidance, progress and success to the Maldivian nation, and keep the homeland on independence forever. On the occasion of Victory Day, First Lady Sajidha Mohamed also conveyed the day's greetings in a post, praying that Maldivians be kept forever in the blessing of independence. She prayed that Allah grant the eternal blessings of Paradise to Dhonbandaarain and the strong children who waged jihad alongside him, and increase their reward and merit. Victory Day is attributed to Al-Sultan Ghazi Hassan Izzuddineel Huravee, who was born in Huraa, Malé Atoll. Victory Day is marked on the 3rd day of the month of Jumada al-Akhirah every year. This is a special day for renewing the memories of Victory Day and remembering the heroes.
