Saudi King Salman Extends Ramadan Greetings to Syrian Leadership

Saudi King Salman sends Ramadan greetings to Syrian President al-Sharaa, wishing health and stability for Syria. As Islamic nations prepare to mark the beginning of Ramadan, Syria’s political landscape shifts with new leadership following President al-Assad’s exit.

On Thursday, Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud conveyed Ramadan greetings to Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa. In a statement released by the Syrian presidency, King Salman expressed his “sincere greetings and best wishes for good health and happiness to President al-Sharaa, and for security and stability for the Syrian Arab Republic and its brotherly people on the occasion of the blessed month of Ramadan.” Additionally, the king wished that this holy month would bring “goodness and blessings to all the peoples of the Islamic nation.”

As several Arab and Islamic nations prepared to observe the crescent moon on Friday, they aimed to establish the official commencement of Ramadan. Syria’s political landscape witnessed significant changes following President Bashar al-Assad’s recent flight to Russia on December 8, marking a pivotal moment for the Baath Party, which has dominated the nation since 1963. The next day, President al-Sharaa appointed Mohammed Al-Bashir with the responsibility to form a government that would guide Syria through its transitional phase.

In summary, King Salman of Saudi Arabia extended heartfelt Ramadan greetings to Syrian President al-Sharaa, wishing health and stability to the Syrian people. The search for the crescent moon signifies the onset of Ramadan across many Muslim nations. Following President al-Assad’s departure, Syria is under new leadership with a focus on transitioning towards stability and governance.
