Ramadan
Dylan WIGHT (Tarneit) (09:45): With the holy month of Ramadan having come to an end I would like to take this opportunity to extend my thanks to the incredibly warm and welcoming Islamic community in Tarneit and Hoppers Crossing. This past week I had the amazing pleasure of attending Melbourne Grand Mosque’s Eid festival. It was so fantastic to see so many families out at that festival enjoying and celebrating the end of Ramadan. Tarneit is a multicultural hub with a strong sense of community, and it is fantastic festivals like this one that make Tarneit such a great place to live. I would also like to personally thank Melbourne Grand Mosque, Virgin Mary Mosque, Golden Wattle mosque, Etesham Picklu, the Dola family, Imitaz Chowdhury and Ishrat Nina as well as Nusrat Islam for inviting me into their homes to celebrate this wonderful month together. Eid Mubarak to you all.
