Jumat-Ul-Wida, the last Friday of the holy month of Ramazan, was observed in the city with traditional religious zeal and reverence. Millions of fasting people offered Friday prayers at mosques and prayer grounds. At many places, the faithful even offered prayers on roads.
Jumat-Ul-Wida has a special significance since it is a prelude to the departure of holy month of Ramazan, and considered the harbinger of the end of the showering of divine blessings. Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) also stressed the sanctity of this day.
A large number of devotees attended the Juma prayers at different mosques seeking divine blessings of the Almighty Allah for continued welfare and unity of the Muslim Ummah for coping with the present day challenges. Khateebs and Ulema delivered special sermons highlighting the significance of Jumat-Ul-Wida. Last Friday of the holy month was also observed as Youm al-Quds in Karachi to express support and solidarity with oppressed Muslims of Palestine.
