Alliance of Rabbis in Muslim States Issues Eid Greeting, Strengthens Ties
Dubai — In a heartfelt message symbolizing interfaith harmony, the Alliance of Rabbis in Islamic States (ARIS) extended warm Eid al-Adha greetings to Muslim communities across the globe on Wednesday.
The message, posted on their official X (formerly Twitter) account, read: “We wish our fellow citizens and neighbors celebrating the Eid al-Adha that their prayers and acts of sharing be accepted and make the world a better place for us all. The Alliance of Rabbis in Islamic States”.
The tweet concluded with #EidMubarak and the organization’s signature in both English and Arabic.
ARIS, which represents Jewish communities across Muslim-majority countries, has gained recognition for promoting peaceful coexistence, religious freedom, and mutual respect. The alliance’s mission, as outlined on its official website, includes supporting Jewish life within Islamic states, enabling religious practice, and building interfaith bridges—especially through dialogue inspired by the Abraham Accords.
Operating across Asia, Africa, and Europe, ARIS aims to empower local Jewish communities through kosher food accessibility, Jewish education, and spiritual leadership. The alliance has also launched initiatives to engage with local governments, support Jewish visitors in Muslim countries, and facilitate interfaith discussions with Islamic clerics and scholars.
Part of its long-term vision includes an annual summit hosted in a Muslim country, featuring interreligious dialogue, training, and strategic networking. The group also actively promotes its work through multilingual online content in Arabic, Hebrew, Farsi, and English, positioning itself as a leading voice for Jewish affairs within Muslim societies.
This latest gesture during one of Islam’s holiest festivals reinforces ARIS’s dedication to fostering trust and shared values between Jewish and Muslim communities—a rare yet vital alliance in an increasingly polarized world.
