His Majesty King Mohammed VI, Commander of the Faithful, may God assist Him, accompanied by HRH Crown Prince Moulay El Hassan, HRH Prince Moulay Rachid, HH Prince Moulay Ahmed and HH Prince Moulay Ismail, performed, on Wednesday, the Eid Al-Fitr prayer at the Al Mohammadi Mosque in Casablanca, and received greetings on this happy occasion. Coming from the Royal Palace in Casablanca, the Royal procession headed to the Al Mohammadi Mosque amidst cheers and applause of citizens who came to express their best wishes to His Majesty the King, Commander of the Faithful, and to share with the Sovereign the joy of this happy day that crowns the holy month of Ramadan. Upon His arrival at the Mosque, His Majesty the King reviewed a detachment of the Royal Guard that made the honors. After the Eid prayer, the Imam delivered a sermon in which he emphasized that believers have bathed, throughout the holy month of Ramadan, in an atmosphere of piety, spirituality, divine blessing and recollection, adding that the day of Eid Al-Fitr is the moment of reward and the joy of obedience to God, the Almighty. Worship has secrets, objectives and goals that the faithful believers must take care to achieve, said the Imam, noting that the prayer that God has ordained is not just words spoken and gestures performed without meditation or reverence, but rather an opportunity for every faithful to remember the greatness of the Almighty. He added that Ramadan, a month of piety and devotion, is capable of changing the course of our lives, strengthening our faith and reminding us of God's benevolence. At the end of his sermon, the Imam implored the Almighty to glorify, assist and preserve HM King Mohammed VI, Commander of the Faithful, to guide His steps, crown His actions with success and to fulfill the Sovereign in the persons of HRH Crown Prince Moulay El Hassan, HRH Prince Moulay Rachid and all the members of the illustrious Royal Family. The Imam also raised prayers for the repose of the souls of the late HM Mohammed V and the late HM Hassan II. His Majesty the King then returned to the Royal Palace amidst the cheers of the citizens who had come in large numbers to wish the Sovereign long life on this blessed day, and to reiterate their unfailing attachment to the Glorious Alaouite Throne and to the August person of His Majesty the King. At the same time, cannon shots were sounded on the occasion of this festive day.
