Assalāmu ‘alaykum wa rahmatullāhi wa barakātuh
On the occasion of the holy eid al-adha, a day of great importance and reviving the spirit of sacrifice, on behalf of GIMDES, DHV, HDM Union, HALAL MORSEL QARD AL-HASAN FUND, AHC-Europe, and WHC, I offer my heartfelt congratulations and prayers for peace, prosperity and unity to our esteemed colleagues, partners and volunteer followers in Halal certification worldwide.
Since our establishment, these Institutions have remained unwavering in their mission to protect, preserve and promote the sanctity of Halal. At the heart of this mission lies a deep commitment to cooperation with Halal Certification Bodies worldwide in establishing bonds of trust, professionalism and brotherhood. Whether through joint initiatives, global conferences, Expos, Festivals, capacity building or exchange of best practices, our combined efforts represent a global canvas woven with sincerity, integrity and a shared vision for the Ummah.
I salute your tireless service, unwavering commitment and role as guardians of the Halal guarantee. Your work enables millions of Muslims to practice their faith with confidence and dignity. Indeed, it is through your noble efforts that the Halal values transcend borders, cultures and markets, preserving a perfect Divine Trust.
To celebrate our common ideals and global unity, GIMDES is honored and excited to announce that our 17th INTERNATIONAL HALAL AND TAYYIB PRODUCTS CONFERENCE WILL BE HELD BOTH ONLINE AND LIVE BROADCAST, where our domestic and international expert speakers will present their papers, together with our Halal Events FESTIVAL at the Istanbul Bağcılar Municipality facilities on July 3-6, 2025.
This historic event will serve as a beacon for collaboration, learning, teaching and deeper participation among HCBs from all continents. We are excited to welcome you in person and provide the opportunity to strengthen the spirit of partnership that brings us together in service to the Ummah.
Until then, I pray to Allah (SWT) that this holiday brings joy to your hearts, blessings to your efforts and renewed strength to our collective mission.
I wish you, your families and volunteer teams a blessed Eid al-Adha.
With my greetings and heartfelt prayers,
