Holy Shab-e-Meraj tonight

The holy Shab-e-Meraj will be observed tonight across the country with due respect and religious fervour, reports BSS.

Muslims every year observe the Shab-e-Meraj, the night Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) embarked on a special journey to meet Allah, on 27th of Arabic month of Rajab.

In the journey, the Prophet (PBUH) travelled on the "Buraq" to Heaven where Allah gave him instructions to take back to the faithful regarding the details of prayers.

Different Islamic organisations will arrange special prayers and milad mahfils in mosques and at other places to seek blessings of the Almighty Allah.

The Muslim devotees will offer special prayers throughout the night in mosques and at homes to seek blessings of Allah for welfare of the nation and the Muslim Ummah.
