President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan has paid tributes to the legacy of the UAE’s Founding Father, the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan.

“As we mark Zayed Humanitarian Day, we continue to be guided by the values the late Sheikh Zayed, who cared deeply about all people and their dignity. His generosity and compassion touched lives around the world and continues to inspire the UAE’s humanitarian work today,” Sheikh Mohamed said.

The occasion is marked every year on the 19th of Ramadan, the day when Sheikh Zayed had passed away in 2004. This year, the date of Ramadan 19 corresponds to April 10.

Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, Vice President, Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, said Sheikh Zayed’s legacy lives on with the values he has instilled in Emiratis.

“He passed away with his body.. and his impact remained.. and we remember every day its goodness… May God have mercy on those who instilled the values of giving in his people.. and raised the building of this state on the basis of mercy with morals, and benevolence to human beings.. in the gardens of eternity, O Zayed of goodness..,” he tweeted.

Meanwhile, Sheikh Khaled bin Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Chairman of the Executive Council, said that the legacy of Sheikh Zayed “remains a beacon of goodness that illuminates the path for present and future generations.”

“This remarkable day will remain indelible in the memories of the Emirati people and the rest of the world,” Sheikh Khalid added in statements marking the Zayed Humanitarian Day, which falls on the 19th of the holy month of Ramadan every year.

“It represents an everlasting memory in which we recall the values of giving that were established by the role model of humanity and pioneer of charitable work,” Sheikh Khaled added, noting that the Zayed Humanitarian Day will live on in the conscience as an unforgettable remembrance.
