In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
His Excellency Mr. Shaykh Za'id Bin Sultan Al-e Nahyan, Head of State of the United Arab Emirates,
The receipt of your congratulatory telegram on the arrival of the auspicious feast of Fitr «1» is acknowledged with gratitude. Reciprocally, I extended my congratulations to Your Excellency and to the Muslim nation of your country for arrival of this great Islamic feast. It is hoped that through the victory of the Muslims in all fronts against the arrogant powers and the enemies of Islam, especially the world-devouring America and the usurper Israel, we could hold the real celebration in the holy city of Quds. May peace be upon you.
