on Wednesday urged Saudis and other Moslems to uphold the values of tolerance, love, unity and mercifulness, and reject violence and terrorism.

In a message on the occasion of Ramadan, he reiterated Soddy Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face...
's total rejection of sectarianism based on different schools of religious thought, saying sectarianism would weaken the country's unity and solidarity.

"We have unlimited confidence in Saudi citizens and we'll not show any leniency toward those who try to weaken the unity of Saudis and undermine the Kingdom's security," he said.

The message, which was read out on Saudi Television by Culture and Information Minister Adel Al-Toraifi, the king described Ramadan as a month of goodness and blessings when God forgives sins of believers and saves them from Hell.

"Islam is a religion of love, compassion and tolerance, and its message was sent by the Almighty as a mercy to the whole humanity," the king said.

Since the time of King Abdul Aziz, Saudi Arabia has been promoting the moderate teachings of Islam and supporting the oppressed and the downtrodden the world over as it believes in the bondage of human brotherhood.

The king stressed that Saudi Arabia's humanitarian activities were not aimed at achieving any mundane benefits but to win the pleasure and reward of God. "We are happy to serve Moslems all over the world."

The king added: "Islam works for goodness and reform and promotes constructive activities. It follows moderation, backs dialogue and brings people together."

King Salman continued, "The holy month generates in our minds the feelings of empathy and compassion toward the fellow human beings. It also teaches us great lessons."

He called upon Moslems to make use of the great blessings of Ramadan through fasting, prayers and righteous deeds. "Moslems should do their duties in the best form and deal with others nicely."
