No Jummat Ul Vida Prayers At Jamia Masjid Srinagar, Management Says

[ad_1]
SRINAGAR: Anjuman Auqaf Jama Masjid, the management body of the Jama Masjid in Srinagar, has expressed strong opposition to the government’s decision to ban Jumma tul Wida prayers at the mosque. The authorities had asked the management to lock the gates of the mosque on the morning of the last Friday of Ramadan, citing the decision to ban the prayers.
This move has caused great distress to the Muslim community, who traditionally gather from all parts of the valley to offer prayers on this greatly blessed day at the Jamia Masjid, where offering prayers on the last Friday of Ramadan has great significance.
The Anjuman Auqaf Jama Masjid has called on the government to reverse its decision and allow the Muslim community to practice their faith without interference.

No Shiv Sena worker involvement in Babri Masjid demolition, claims Maha minister

[ad_1]
Mumbai: Maharashtra minister and senior Bharatiya Janata Party leader Chandrakant Patil on Monday said not a single worker of the Shiv Sena was near the Babri Masjid in Ayodhya when it was brought down by the Bajrang Dal and Durga Vahini on December 6, 1992.
Patil, minister of higher and technical education in the Eknath Shinde government and a former Maharashtra BJP chief, made the comment while speaking to a regional news channel.
Incidentally, Shiv Sena founder late Bal Thackeray has often been quoted as saying that he was proud if any of his Sainiks took part in the demolition of the disputed structure.

“I was placed there by the Bajrang Dal for three-four months to facilitate kar sevaks arriving in Ayodhya. People participating were either from Bajrang Dal, VHP or Durga Vahini. Former Bihar state deputy CM (and senior BJP leader) Sushil Kumar Modi, legislator Harendra Kumar and I were given the task to manage the kar sevaks and ensure their safe passage,” Patil claimed.
“We three were working there as national general secretaries. The RSS’ strength was behind us but it did not participate openly. It had distributed its work to like minded organisations,” Patil claimed.
Patil further said Shiv Sena (UBT) Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Raut keeps talking about the Babri Masjid demolition, adding he wondered if the latter was even there at the temple town in Uttar Pradesh at the time.
He also took a swipe at Uddhav Thackeray for accusing Chief Minister Eknath Shinde of stealing the legacy of Bal Thackeray.
The late Shiv Sena founder was not the property of anyone and was someone who was hugely respected by the people, Patil added.

“Balasaheb is the property of all Hindus and everyone is free to use his name (legacy),” said Patil.
The Shiv Sena split in June last year after the rebellion by Shinde, who got the party name and ‘bow and arrow’ symbol, while Uddhav Thackeray’s faction was christened Shiv Sena (UBT) with a flaming torch as its symbol.

[ad_1]
SRINAGAR: Anjuman Auqaf Jama Masjid Srinagar on Saturday paid tributes to Umm-ul-Momineen Hazrat Khadija-tul-Kabra (RA) on her passing away anniversary.
In a statement, Anjuman on behalf of the Auqaf and its incarcerated Chief Mirwaiz Umar Farooq paid glowing tributes to Hazrat Khadija-tul-Kubra’s (RA) historic, selfless and great services to Islam and Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (SAW), terming her contribution as unforgettable.
Umm-ul-Momineen (RA) was among the first women who sacrificed everything for Islam and Prophet Muhammad (SAW), Anjuman said.
Meanwhile, Anjuman expressed deep sorrow and regret over the fact that as per past practice on 10th Ramadan, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq could not deliver a special sermon on the contribution of Hazrat Khadija at the historic shrine of Dastgeer Sahib (RA) Khanyar due to his continued house arrest which is extremely painful and disturbing for the Kashmiri people.
Anjuman reiterated its public demand for an end to the detention of the Mirwaiz-e-Kashmir during the blessed month of Ramadan. (KNO)

Release Mirwaiz-e-Kashmir Before Ramadhan: Anjuman Auqaf Jama Masjid

[ad_1]
SRINAGAR: Anjuman Auqaf Jama Masjid Srinagar expressed anguish over the fact that the Mimbar-o-Mihrab of the historic central grand mosque continue to remain silent due to the three and a half year detention of Mirwaiz-e-Kashmir Dr Moulvi Muhammad Umar Farooq, terming it a “matter of great concern for all of us”.
The Anjuman said that as the holy month of Ramadan is approaching, the people are hoping that the unjustified ban and restriction on their beloved leader and the tallest religious leader of Kashmir, Mirwaiz Umar Dr Moulvi Muhammad Farooq, will come to an end and he will be allowed to perform his duties towards the people.
However, today is the 186th consecutive Friday when the Mirwaiz-e-Kashmir was prevented from offering the important religious duty of Friday prayer and carrying out his official duties of ‘Qaal Allah Wa Qaala Rasool (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam), the Auqaf said, adding that by such actions, the religious sentiments of the people are continuously hurt.
The Anjuman Auqaf Jama Masjid Srinagar has expressed hope that in the beginning of the holy month of Ramadan, for which there are only a few days left, the sentiments of the people will be taken care of by ensuring the unconditional release of Mirwaiz-e-Kashmir.
