Today, at the Halk hakydasy Memorial Complex, located in a picturesque corner of the capital, Haji Arkadag and Arkadagly Haji Serdar held a sadaqah-agzachar. The event was attended by the country’s mufti, imams of all the velayats and the cities of Ashgabat and Arkadag, venerable elders, wise mothers, and numerous youth. This event, on the eve of the sacred Night of Omnipotence – Gadyr gijesi, was a continuation of the good deeds performed during the holy month of Oraza in the year “Independent Neutral Turkmenistan – Homeland of Purposeful Winged Steeds”.

As is known, Hero-Arkadag recently noted that it would be appropriate to perform sadaqah-agzachar on the eve of the Night of Omnipotence – Gadyr gijesi of the holy month of Oraza – with the participation of respected elders, wise mothers, imams of the velayats, as well as representatives of the clergy and numerous youth.

This will be a clear demonstration of the veneration of the noble traditions and customs established by our ancestors throughout history. In this regard, today, Haji Arkadag and Arkadagly Haji Serdar performed a joint sadaqah-agzachar at the Halk hakydasy Memorial Complex.

President Serdar Berdimuhamedov and National Leader of the Turkmen People, Chairman of the Halk Maslahaty Hero-Arkadag arrived at the site of the sadaqah-agzachar to mark the onset of Gadyr gijesi of the holy month of Oraza.

As noted, holding sadaqah-agzachar on the eve of the Night of Almighty Power multiplies the blessings of this holy month, affirming the commitment of future generations to good traditions.

Since ancient times, the Turkmen people have treated the month of Oraza in special reverence and considered it to be sacred. Following the principles of humanism, every day of this month is filled with good deeds. In accordance with centuries-old good traditions, cities and villages hold fast-breaking meals, during which national dishes are prepared and prayers are offered for the well-being of the country and the happy life of the people.

Throughout our glorious history, our wise ancestors created a rich cultural heritage, national values, and remarkable traditions that serve as an example for the entire world. Among these, a special place is occupied by the respectful attitude toward the holy month of Oraza and Gadyr Gijesi, recognized as a blessed night of mercy and grace. The celebration of sadaqah-agzachar by President Serdar Berdimuhamedov and Hero-Arkadag on the eve of the holy Gadyr Gijesi was another demonstration that centuries-old good traditions continue in the spirit of the modern era.

The good deeds performed during the holy month of Oraza, especially on the eve of Gadyr Gijesi, clearly demonstrate the Turkmen people’s commitment to humanistic principles. During this month, as throughout the Islamic world, charity is practiced in our country. Holding sadaqah-agzachar during the month of Oraza has become a noble tradition.

Addressing the event’s participants, Haji Arkadag noted that our independent Fatherland has created all the conditions for observing national customs, citizens making pilgrimages to holy sites, visiting mosques, and offering prayers. He emphasized that today, following the centuries-old noble tradition of our people, everyone has gathered together to perform sadaqah-agzachar during the holy month of Oraza.

As is well known, tomorrow is the holy Night of Omnipotence. The Turkmen people live with faith in the Almighty, noted Haji Arkadag, emphasizing that the values of Islam are closely intertwined with our traditions. Performing agzachar during the month of Oraza is also a noble deed, Haji Arkadag emphasized, and wished that the prayers and sadaqah performed during the month of Oraza be accepted by the Almighty.

Then, the Mufti of Turkmenistan performed the “tebärek” prayer service, offering blessing that the sadaqa-agzachar performed by Haji Arkadag and Arkadagly Haji Serdar would be accepted by the Almighty.

All this is clear evidence that national traditions, rooted in the depths of centuries and connecting eras and generations, continue to this day.

Strengthening the spiritual health of society, improving moral values, and honoring the historical and cultural heritage and traditions passed down from generation to generation are among the priority areas of President Serdar Berdimuhamedov’s socially oriented state policy.

Our ancestors considered the month of Oraza the best of months, and the Night of Omnipotence – the greatest of nights. They celebrated it in an atmosphere of unity, with good intentions, bright hopes, and dreams. Today, all of this is supported at the state level, which is especially important for the harmonious development of society based on high spiritual and cultural values.

In this regard, great attention is paid to the comprehensive development of our country and the strengthening of national unity and cohesion. At the same time, the ambitious goals achieved through the efforts of President Serdar Berdimuhamedov and Hero-Arkadag are aimed at enriching humanistic principles with new content in the modern era.

The event participants were offered dishes of national cuisine. At the conclusion of the meal, the Mufti of Turkmenistan recited the “aýat-töwir” blessing.

“May the Almighty accept all the prayers recited! Kabul is blessed!” said Haji Arkadag, thanking everyone for participating in the sadaqah-agzachar and wishing the people a prosperous life.

The sadaqah-agzachar held today by Haji Arkadag and Arkadagly Haji Serdar at the Halk hakydasy Memorial Complex once again demonstrated the continuity of the traditions of great ancestors and the spiritual unity of the people.
