JEDDAH, 16 October 2004 — Sheikh Saleh Al-Taleb, one of the imams of the Grand Mosque in Makkah, yesterday called upon Muslims to outdo each other in righteous deeds to win rewards during Ramadan.
Giving his Friday sermon to tens of thousands of faithful who thronged the mosque, the imam denounced the Israeli move to exterminate Palestinians in the occupied territories and destroy their homes and properties.
Sheikh Ali ibn Abdul Rahman Al-Hudaify, one of the imams of the Prophet’s Mosque in Madinah, emphasized the significance of fasting in Ramadan.
“All acts of worship in Islam are meant to cleanse Muslims of sins and bring them closer to God,” he added.
