Juma'tul Wida observed
Saturday, 27 September 2008
Juma'tul Wida, the last Friday of the holy month of Ramadan, was observed across the country with religious fervour and sanctity, reports UNB.
Large numbers of 'musullis' (devotees) attended the Juma prayers at different mosques seeking divine blessings for peace and progress of the country and unity of the Muslim Ummah.
The largest 'Juma'tul Wida' congregation was held at Baitul Mukarram National Mosque in the capital. Thousands of devotees took part in the congregation and sought the blessings of Allah for peace of the departed souls of their near and dear ones and also for the peace and prosperity of the Muslim Ummah.
Special arrangements were made to accommodate the extra-ordinary surge of the faithful in all mosques in various parts of the city.
The management of mosques in many places had erected 'shamianas' (tents) outside the main mosque buildings to create additional space for offering of prayers.
At many places, the faithful even offered prayers on roads.
Khateebs and Ulema delivered special sermons on the occasion and exhorted the faithful to submit themselves to the will of Almighty Allah to seek His mercy and blessings.
They called for greater unity among the world Muslims to counter the present-day challenges.
