"Please accept our deep congratulations on the Holy Day of Fitr. Begging the Lord to accept our prayers, we pray all Muslims be delighted by the appearance of the Holy Savior of the earth. May God bless all of us."
I am intrigued, and can anyone explain, does the moslims consider the crescent (small curved lunar vision seen immedietely after new moon)to be the saviour of the world? or does he mean the month of shawwal?


Maybe the man is a Christian and this sentence was a little attempt to evangelize his business contacts? What he writes does not sound Muslimic at all. The moon which appears at Fitr day is surely not considered a savior, much less a holy savior in Islam (they aren't Moonies, after all). It is also interesting that that he speaks about "Lord" and "God," not "Alah". "May God bless us" is also not a very Islamic greeting I think. Why not simply ask him directly what he meant or answer him with a similar hidden message?
