LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League (PML) President and former Prime Minister Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain, senior central leader and former Deputy Prime Minister Ch Parvez Elahi and Moonis Elahi have said that we can overcome every problem, threat and crisis confronting Pakistan with the spirit of great sacrifice.
Heartily congratulating the nation in their messages on the auspicious occasion of Eid-ul-Azha, they said that Eid-ul-Azha gives us lesson not to spare any sacrifice for our faith, country and nation; our first priority should be Pakistan and those performing Sunnah-e-Ibrahimi should also involve the poor, destitute, widows and orphans in their happiness of Eid celebrations, they said.
They said that by following the spirit of Hazrat Ibrahim, our elders offered great sacrifice of their lives, property and honour to achieve this land and we are bound by duty to protect and defend it against internal and external threats and disturbances. They said that we should remember the fundamental golden principles which the Holy Prophet had given us in his Khutba-e-Hajjatul Wida (sermon at the last Hajj) in religion, politics and government, as only by practicing these principles we can be victorious in the world and the world hereafter.
The PML leaders said that we should pledge that we will not consider any sacrifice too great for safeguarding security and solidarity of Pakistan and for its stability and progress, we will always give preference to national interests over personal, group and party interests.
