Srinagar, Oct 13: Anjuman Auqaf Jamia Masjid Srinagar today said that while all mosques, shrines, Imambaras including Dargah Hazratbal have opened for prayers because of the ongoing holy month of Rabi-ul-Awwal and diminishing graph of COVID-19 cases, the authorities have no justification to keep J&K’s largest place of worship closed.
“Therefore, Anjuman Auqaf Jamia Masjid Srinagar has decided that in view of the occasion of the blessed birth of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW), the grand mosque will be opened for Friday prayers on October 15, 2021, under strict observance of COVID-19 SOPS and guidelines,” Anjuman said.
The Anjuman said that on this occasion, people will make special arrangements for prayers to seek the salvation of humanity from the COVID-19 pandemic along with repentance of sins, before Almighty Allah.
“We also hope the authorities will ensure that the detention of Mirwaiz-e-Kashmir Dr Moulvi Muhammad Umar Farooq, the head of Anjuman Auqaf, who has been under illegal and arbitrary house arrest for the last 28 months, will also be ended so that he resumes his centuries-old duty of the Mirwaizeen-e-Kashmir of preaching Qaal Allah Wa Qaala Rasool (SAW),” the Anjuman said.
