In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Your Excellency Mr. Ma'moun `Abdul-Qayyoum, President of the Maldives,
I acknowledge the receipt of Your Excellency's message of congratulation on the occasion of auspicious birth anniversary of the holy prophet of Islam (peace be upon him and his progeny) with gratitude. Reciprocally, I congratulate you on the auspicious day and beseech God Almighty to grant dignity to Islam and Muslims. May God's peace and mercy be upon you!
