Federation of Islamic Associations in Burkina Faso Calls for Increased Prayers During Ramadan’s Final Days

OUAGADOUGOU — In a heartfelt appeal to the Muslim community, the Federation of Islamic Associations of Burkina (FAIB) has called for intensified prayers for peace and security throughout Burkina Faso during the concluding ten days of Ramadan.

According to Burkina Information Agency, the FAIB shared a message on its Facebook page encouraging the faithful to dedicate the last decade of Ramadan to seeking divine intervention for the nation’s well-being. The organization highlighted the significance of this period, urging believers to engage in earnest supplication and worship.

“In this last decade, we wish you all nights of full adoration. Let us multiply the invocations for peace and security in our dear country,” the FAIB stated, invoking the spiritual weight of the last ten days, which include Laylat al-Qadr or the night of Destiny. This night, described in the Quran as ‘better than a thousand months,’ represents a time when prayers are believed to be particularly potent.

The FAIB’s message underscored the profound religious significance of this period, noting that it is a time when the faithful are called upon to deepen their spiritual practices and plead for tranquility and safety in Burkina Faso.
