Srinagar, March 21 : Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti on Saturday extended Eid greetings to the people and called for special prayers for the Muslim Ummah, particularly those facing hardships in Palestine, Lebanon and Iran.
In her message on the occasion of Eid, Mehbooba said that while people celebrate the festival after the holy month of Ramadan, they should also remember those across the Muslim world who are going through difficult times and pray for relief and peace for them.
She also expressed regret that during a gathering she attended, prayers were not offered for Palestine, Lebanon or Iran, and said that Eid prayers should include prayers for the people of Jammu and Kashmir and the entire Muslim Ummah, especially those suffering due to conflict and hardship.
Mehbooba appealed to people to extend help and support to those in need, saying that this is a time to show unity, compassion and solidarity with the suffering Muslim Ummah across the world.(KNS)
