He also urged the people to pray for the peace and prosperity of the country, the unity of the Muslim Ummah and the liberation of Kashmir and Palestine.
In addition, six Nawafals were held in the mosques managed by Dawat-e-Islami across the district where the faithful sought Allah’s forgiveness and protection from the evils of the world and the hereafter.
