“I wish all Muslims in the UK and across the world a happy Eid as they gather with their families to celebrate, and congratulate all those participating in the Hajj pilgrimage,” Johnson said in his message.

According to IRNA, the British foreign secretary also reiterated that the UK values hugely the contribution made by British Muslims to all aspects of our society.

“We are proud of our strong traditions of diversity and tolerance in Britain; we continue to work with our partners for peace and harmony across the Muslim world and in particular for an end to the conflicts in Syria and Yemen. My thoughts are with those who due to their circumstances, may be unable to celebrate Eid Al Adha this year,” Johnson added.
