(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) – Armenian pontiff has congratulated Iranian
officials on the occasion of the arrival of holy month of Ramadan.
Archbishop of Armenian community in Tehran Sebouh Sarkissian on Sunday
felicitated Imam Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei and President Mahmoud
Ahmadinejad on advent of the holy month of Ramadan.
In the meantime, the archbishop also felicitated Majlis Speaker Ali
Larijani and the head of Expediency Council Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani
on the auspicious occasion.
Ramadan has started in some Muslim countries on Monday, including
Saudi Arabia, but the beginning of the holy month in Iran has not
been confirmed.
Some clerics, however, doubt over the beginning of the month on Monday
in Iran.
During the holy month, Muslims are banned from eating and drinking
from dawn to dusk.
