Anjuman Auqaf Jama Masjid Srinagar has announced that as per the Islamic Shariah and teachings, Eid-ul-Adha prayers would be offered at the historic Eidgah in Srinagar at 9 am.

In case of rain or bad weather, the Eid prayers will be offered at the Historic Jama Masjid Srinagar, the Anjuman Auqaf said, adding that the timing for the prayers will remain the same.

The Anjuman has urged the people to participate in the congregation prayers  to express unity among the ummah and maintain discipline. The people have been urged to bring prayer mats (Jai Namaz) along with them.

In view of Eid-ul-Adha and the holy days of Qurbani, Anjuman Auqaf once again  asks the authorities to release Mirwaiz-e-Kashmir Dr Moulvi Muhammad Umar Farooq, “who continues to be under arbitrary house arrest for the last four years, since August 2019 , causing  anguish to people and keeping him away from his religious dawa work”.
