The Union advised adherent of Islam to be obedient, cultivate the habit of giving and extending hands of fellowship to other people, particularly the less privileged as commanded by Prophet Mohammed.
It is when we are obedient and give to others that we can receive from Allah, as He gave Prophet Ibrahim a ram in replacement of his only son he wanted to sacrifice to God.
It also enjoined them to be moderate in the celebration and desist from wastefulness and act of lawlessness.
