Diálogo Inter-religioso: Comunidade Islâmica de Lisboa deseja «sinceros votos de rápidas e plenas melhoras» ao Papa Leão XIV
The Islamic Community of Lisbon (CIL) sent a message to Pope Leo XIV expressing sincere wishes for his rapid and full recovery. In a statement released Tuesday, the CIL, which represents Muslims in Portugal, said its members are praying for the Pope to receive strength and health to continue his mission of peace and fraternity between different faith communities.
The Pope entered Gemelli Hospital in Rome around 1:00 p.m. local time today to undergo surgery for a lung nodule. He announced on Sunday, following the Angelus prayer, that doctors advised the procedure after detecting a small, localized nodule in its early stages. Medical staff expect his recovery to take approximately one week.
