Liberal Democrat Party President Sal Brinton has recorded the following message for Ramadan 2015.

As-salamu alaykum.

On behalf of the Liberal Democrats, I am delighted to send this message to Muslims in the UK and across the world who are observing the holy month of Ramadan.

Ramadan is a time for self-reflection and sharing; of fasting and prayer. It is a time for renewing faith and strengthening the bonds between family and friends.

At this important time in the Islamic calendar, we are reminded particularly of the value of service of British Muslims, so I want to thank you all for the valuable contribution you make, across British society and beyond, both at Ramadan and throughout the whole year.

So I would like to wish everyone harmony, happiness and unity during this special time.

May your Ramadan bring peace and blessings.

Ramadan Mubarak.
