The leader of the MHP, Devlet Bahçeli, stated in his congratulatory message on the occasion of the Eid al-Adha, "A Turkey free of terrorism will be the eternal holiday of the Turkish nation, and a tremendous legacy will be entrusted to the future and the hopeful generation of the future."
The Chairman of the Nationalist Movement Party (MHP), Devlet Bahçeli, issued a message on the occasion of the Eid al-Adha. Bahçeli stated, "A Turkey without terrorism will be the eternal holiday of the Turkish nation, and a tremendous trust will be entrusted to the future and the hopeful generation of the future." He also expressed, "I pray that the Muslim world, struggling with instabilities, reaches peace, prosperity, justice, and security as soon as possible, and I congratulate our brothers living in the Turkish-Islamic geography on their blessed holiday with my prayers."
Bahçeli's complete message for Eid al-Adha is as follows:
The act of sacrifice holds an important place in our religious and national life as one of the spiritual opportunities and means to gain the pleasure, grace, and bounty of Almighty Allah.
The deep meaning of this act can be explained and expressed as closeness to God, selflessness towards the people, and relief for the needy.
"WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO PERFORM THE SACRIFICE ONCE AGAIN"
I thank Allah that we have been able to perform the sacrifice once again and have reached the holiday of sacrifice, which is the reward of this act.
If holidays are celebrated in accordance with their true meaning and spirit, the influence of hardship and resentment will weaken and give way to the permanent reunion of hearts.
At the core of our beliefs and human values lies the significant weight of patience, loyalty, sincerity, and common sense.
Moreover, it is certain that our life plan, surrounded by love and respect, and purified by faith and will, will develop and strengthen our social and communal structure both materially and spiritually.
As long as we spread and reflect these values in every aspect of life, no one, no internal or external adversary will be able to prevent the establishment of a lasting environment of peace and tranquility.
"TURKEY IS MAKING PROGRESS WITH DETERMINATION IN THE NEW CENTURY"
The Turkish nation, with its benevolent, peace-loving, justice-seeking, charitable, hospitable, and patriotic characteristics, evokes open or hidden admiration in the world of humanity.
For this reason, it becomes a target of treacherous traps and jealousy that can lead to enmity.
Moreover, there is no possibility of any erosion or decrease in the course and process of potential and expected negative, vile, and oppressive counter-operations from now on.
As long as we keep our national unity and solidarity strong, and defend the environment of internal peace and brotherhood together, it will undoubtedly become impossible to speak of the impact of any kind of evil and malicious operations.
Our Turkey is making progress with determination in the new century.
The success and stability of this progress, furthermore, the ascent to the summit of a leading country and superpower, depend on the collective effort and honorable existence of our noble nation.
A Turkey without terrorism will be a historical achievement in this process.
"A TURKEY WITHOUT TERRORISM WILL BE THE ETERNAL HOLIDAY OF THE TURKISH NATION"
It is a requirement of human dignity and the right to belief for every region and every person to experience every day as a holiday, culminating in embrace and unity.
Holidays are sacred and esteemed periods of reconciliation and forgiveness, as well as lasting understanding and moral commitment.
In addition, holidays are the source of unity and harmony, and the gift of solidarity and mutual assistance.
A Turkey without terrorism will be the eternal holiday of the Turkish nation, and a tremendous trust will be entrusted to the future and the hopeful generation of the future.
The period of sorrow and regret must come to an end.
The veins of provocation and oppression must be dried up.
There is no place in the Century of Turkey for the puppets of imperialism, disruptive centers, caricatured discourses, repetitive empty rhetoric, dark intentions, and treacherous ambitions.
The management of our national destiny will be secured not from mountains or caves, but from the capital Ankara, based on the founding principles, essence, and reputation of the Republic.
"THE GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY OUR COUNTRY HAS CAPTURED MUST NOT BE MISSED"
The golden opportunity our country has captured must not be missed.
In this context, historical responsibilities fall on all of us and everyone.
Without giving way to procedural and stylistic accidents, we must consciously take ownership of our country and our ideals in an open and transparent manner, excluding impositions and hidden agendas.
The rooting of the holiday spirit and the transformation of Turkey into a holiday place from head to toe will only be realized in this way, and civil and democratic politics will gain depth and breadth.
"THE TURKISH NATION IS A GREAT FAMILY"
The Turkish nation is a great family.
No honorable member of this family has been marginalized, despised, or looked down upon.
By removing bloody and unlawful weapons and targets, the magnificent power of the new century will be Turkey and the Turkish nation.
I hope that we will reach the unity and solidarity we desire and aim for, thanks to the holiday days.
Holiday is the warm announcement of reunion, blending, and embracing.
Holiday is the unchanging address of brotherhood, friendship, and closeness.
Holiday is the nest and protector of beauty, cleanliness, and sincerity.
The strongest and most lasting response to separation and discrimination is hidden in the spiritually rich meaning of the holiday.
One of the bonds that make us who we are, that tightly binds us to our roots and identity, is such meaningful days and periods.
The Turkish nation, inspired and respected by its past and traditions, is paving the way for the new century with admirable national and spiritual values, demonstrating determination, faith, and resilience in overcoming its chronic problems.
This situation is a development that will be remembered with admiration and appreciation.
"WE ARE WORKING AND STRIVING FOR TURKEY"
As a party and with the spirit and stance of our alliance, we are working and striving for a Turkey that is completely free from its problems, growing, and rising with power, day and night.
Despite black propaganda, false news, unfounded claims, slander, and unjust accusations, we will never compromise our struggle, nor will we.
Let there be no doubt that we passionately carry the words, values, and goals of the Turkish nation.
We courageously defend our national existence, our independence honor, and our thousand-year-old brotherhood rights.
We know what we are doing, what we have, and where we want to go, and we carry this in our hearts.
On the holiday, we will sacrifice our offerings for the pleasure of Allah; but we will not give a chance to those who try to divide our homeland and butcher our people.
We will offer sacrifices to fulfill our obligatory worship; but we will not tolerate those who attempt to sacrifice the existence of the nation.
We will not allow those who have shelved their dignity and locked their national and human values in the vaults of their minds to sacrifice Turkey and the Turkish nation.
We will not sacrifice our future to the unfortunate who are unseen due to hypocrisy, denial, and betrayal, nor will we let our people suffer.
Especially during the holiday, increasing mutual assistance and solidarity, spreading sharing and distribution, and extending a helping hand to those in distress, stranded, and in need is our national and spiritual duty.

We must stand against those who are pleased with our pains, those who rejoice in our losses, and those who hope for our division, by not showing them the environment they seek and the dark days they long for, with our shared feelings during the holiday; we must be an insurmountable fortress with national, moral, conscientious, and heartfelt values.
It is evident that we have no other option but to ensure that the conspiracies against the thousand-year-old brotherhood rights, the attacks on the existence of our homeland and nation, and the intolerance shown towards Turkey's future remain ineffective indefinitely.
"I WISH A HAPPY SACRIFICE FESTIVAL TO ALL OUR CITIZENS"
With these feelings, I wish a happy Sacrifice Festival to all our citizens and pray to Almighty Allah for health, happiness, and years filled with safety for all of them.
I pray for the Muslim world, struggling with instability, to reach peace, prosperity, justice, and security as soon as possible, and I congratulate the blessed holiday of our brothers living in the Turkish-Islamic geography along with my prayers.
I greet our brothers who perform the pilgrimage duty and pray for the acceptance and approval of their worship.
I consider it important for our citizens who are on the roads during the holiday to comply with traffic rules for the sake of life and property safety.
I say, may our Sacrifice Festival be blessed. "
