On the 3rd of October 2024, The Global Imams Council (GIC) issued a statement on Rosh Hashanah.
Full Statement:
As the Jewish communities across the world celebrate Rosh Hashanah, The Global Imams Council (GIC) extends its heartfelt wishes for a year of peace, prosperity, and reflection. This sacred time of renewal and introspection resonates with our shared values of faith, justice, and the pursuit of harmony for all humanity.
In these times of global unrest, it is more important than ever to stand together—across faiths and nations—in solidarity against those who seek to divide us through hatred and fear. The GIC remains steadfast in its mission to foster interfaith dialogue, promote justice, and protect the rights of all people, regardless of their religion or background. We stand with the Jewish community and all communities around the world that have been affected by the scourge of terrorism.
May this Rosh Hashanah inspire all of us to work towards a future of mutual understanding, respect, and lasting peace. The GIC will continue to be a voice for coexistence and the defense of human dignity, and we look forward to a brighter year ahead for all.
Shana Tovah
