Prophet David Mbewe who is also a leader for Liberation for Economic Freedom Party has donated livestock to muslims at Nselema in Machinga District for Eid UI-fitr celebration.

Mbewe’s donation follows after the announcement made by the Muslim Association of Malawi that Muslim in the country will observe Eid UI-fitr prayers either today or tomorrow depending on sighting of the moon.

Mbewe who is also the founder for Living Word Evangelistic Church, urged the muslims to continue praying for a peaceful Malawi, especially as the country prepares to hold general elections next year. He was saying this on Monday after the donation.

He added that they need to unite as country. With prayers and supplications to God, every problem that our country is facing can be solved.

Sheikh Jailu Ibrahim who presented the muslims, said the donation will go a long way in helping underprivileged muslims to have special food on the Eid UI-fitr occasion.

Paramount Chief Kawinga of the Yao people told muslims to sustain the spirit and lessons gained from the Ramadan period peace, unity and progress.

Kawinga reminded the muslims of Zakatul Fitr or giving out measure of foodstuffs to the needy at the end of the month-long fasting period.

He concluded that all the sacrifices they have made during the holy month of Ramadan should draw everyone closer to the Almighty Allah. May He make Eid a great occasion for interaction, harmony and tolerance.

Mbewe donated a cow and goats to be shared to two mosques surrounding Nselema Trading Centre in the district.
