The glory days of our world are most remembered today!

Every nation prides itself on its glory on the day it occurs, and makes that day a national memory that nations boast about, and no nation has a day like the UAE Federation Day.

This is the ideal glory that made a union in which not a single drop of blood was appreciated, and it was not forced to any challenge, nor opportunistic for a party to win at the expense of another, nor directed against anyone, but rather a union in which the intentions were described, the orientations were true, and the determination to establish an entity United, serving the people and rejuvenating the earth, that is the ideal day of glory that the sheikhs of the Emirates made on the second of December 1971 AD, under the leadership of the father of the Emirates, Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan - may God rest his soul - who made himself not to be a nation alone, but with his brothers who They will strengthen his arms, strengthen his arms, and build his glory with him, for this day has the right to be a memorable day for the people of the whole earth, to see how good intentions, sincerity of will and good direction are made, how the dusty land has become a beautiful, bright green land, and the living situation is the happiest and most contentment, for this nation that was A Bedouin nation is living on the approach of the Arab desert, from being satisfied with living in black people, communicating with poisoned horses and camels, to a situation that surpassed the finest civilizations in the world today, and a huge economy comparable to the economy of ancient countries in industry and agriculture ...

The most important thing for all of this is to remain on the spirit of the union that arose five decades ago, as if its ink had not dried up, so it did not weaken for him, nor did he have a canal, but the grandchildren and great-grandchildren are today more proud and coherent than the fathers and grandparents were in this great union that is near They have the distant, and now they have iron, and today they are boasting about the moon and Mars, and in a safety and security that humanity does not know like in its world today, all with the blessing of those sincere intentions upon which the UAE union was established, so the blessing of heaven dawned on them, which the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, referred to in his saying : “If they were honest and blessed to sell them, and if they concealed and lie, the blessing of their sale is worthy.” Undoubtedly, the union deal was an allegiance to God Almighty, His Messenger, and the guardian who led the union, and it was greater than the material trade deals, and the blessings of God Almighty poured over this union by opening treasures So that the good of the land returns to the people, and the security of the people to coexist in love and loyalty, and God’s truthfulness when he says: “If the people of the villages believed and feared, let us open blessings and blessings upon them.

The divine as long as this faith and piety permeates the hearts of the worshipers and the country.

The National Day in which we are living its 49th anniversary requires things from us in order for this memory to remain firm, protecting its origin and branch.

The first of them is: the perpetual gratitude of God Almighty for the blessing of union, which is a gift from God and a success from him. Thanks to the Almighty, the Almighty, is obligatory by the law and reason, and it is the reason for the permanence and increase of blessings.

And secondly: to know the credit for those founding fathers who planted the union tree to live in its lush shade with great happiness, so we remind them to pray, praise and pledge to continue building and following their path without bending.

And third: to remain on the covenant and loyalty to their successors who protect the fever, shield us from harm, and bestow the generosity of our honorable Sheikhs, headed by His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the State, and His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and President The Council of Ministers, Ruler of Dubai, His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces, and all His Highness members of the Supreme Council of the Union, rulers of the Emirates, who carry the Union flag with relentless determination and indignity.

Fourth: looking at the future more than looking at the past.

The future requires great determination and hard effort more than the determination of the parents.

Because of the many challenges of the future, the biggest of which is the frenzied competition from countries with a civilizational, industrial and technical precedence, and we are a nation that our sheikhs taught us to be at the forefront of nations, and we do not accept to be in the middle, not to mention the backside, and the like that can only be overcome by willpower and many sacrifices.

We ask God Almighty to perpetuate the blessing of union and security for us under this leadership.
