Chief Adviser Prof Muhammad Yunus today (15 September) issued a message greeting the people of Bangladesh and the Muslims across the world on the eve of the day the holy Eid-e-Miladunnabi.

In his message, the CA said Allah had sent Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) as 'Rahmatullil Alamin' for peace, emancipation, progress and overall welfare of the whole world.

The Prophet (PBUH) came to the world with the messages of emancipating the mankind from all sorts of prejudices, sinful acts, injustices and slavery, he said, adding he had called the people across the world towards emancipation and peace and torched the light of truth by shunning the era of darkness.

The Prophet had blown the wind of peace throughout the world by engaging him in establishing brotherhood, justice and equity-based society and ensuring welfare for mankind, he added.

The CA believed that peace, justice and welfare of the world can be ensured only through following and worshiping the unique lifestyle of the Holy Prophet (PBUH), his universal teachings and Sunnah in today's conflict-ridden world.

"It is my firm belief that the noble ideals and Sunnah of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) in religious and mortal life are best and emulate for the people of the world, and therein lies the infinite welfare, success and peace of Muslims," the chief adviser said.

The holy Eid-e-Miladunnabi, marking the day of birth and passing away of Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) will be observed across Bangladesh on Monday with due religious solemnity.
