In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
His Excellency Mr. Shaykh Za'id ibn Sultan Al Nihyan, Head of State of the United Arab Emirates,
The receipt of your congratulatory telegram on the arrival of the auspicious `Id al-Fitr «1» is hereby acknowledged with gratitude. Reciprocally, I congratulate Your Excellency and the fraternal and Muslim nation of your country for this great Islamic feast. I beseech God, the most Exalted, to bless with the glory to Muslim nations and pray for their victory over the enemies of Islam and Muslims. May peace be upon you.
