Srinagar, Mar 12 (NVI): Jumat-ul-Vida, the last Friday of the holy month of Ramzan, will be observed across Jammu and Kashmir on Friday.
Grand Mufti Nasir-ul-Islam said Jumat-ul-Vida will fall on March 13 this year, noting that the following Friday may coincide with Eid-ul-Fitr.
Meanwhile, the Anjuman Auqaf Jama Masjid held a meeting chaired by Mirwaiz Umar Farooq to review and finalise arrangements for Jumat-ul-Vida, Shab-e-Qadr and Eid-ul-Fitr.
During the meeting, the Auqaf expressed hope that authorities will permit congregational prayers and religious gatherings at the historic Jamia Masjid in the old city, which has remained largely closed for major prayers for nearly seven years.
The Auqaf also said coordination will be maintained with concerned government departments to ensure smooth arrangements for the upcoming religious occasions. (NVI)
