Srinagar, Apr 2 (KNS): Muttahida Majlis-e-Ulema (MMU) Jammu and Kashmir has extended heartfelt greetings to the Muslim world including the Muslims of Jammu and Kashmir on the arrival of holy month of Ramadan.
The MMU on behalf of its all members, especially the incarcerated chief Mirwaiz-e-Kashmir, Dr Moulvi Muhammad Umar Farooq who continues to be under house arrest since 5 August 2019, greeted the Millat-e-Islamia and said that Ramadan is actually a month of fasting, self-purification, worship, piety and service to the people.
“This is a golden opportunity to get closer to Allah. In this great month, we should try our best to remove the evils prevalent in our society,” MMU said.
It said that Ramadan is also a month of self-sacrifice and sympathy and its message of building the ‘spirit and character’ needs to be spread as much as possible throughout this month.
Meanwhile, MMU also appealed for the release of Mirwaiz-e-Kashmir and expressed deep concern over the fact that due to his detention for the last three years, his entire activities – religious, dawah and social activities – have been suspended.
It hoped that in view of the holy month of Ramadan, the detention of Mirwaiz be ended immediately.
