Owaisi Urges Muslims To Offer Friday Prayers At Home

All India Majlis E ittehadul Muslimeen Chief and Hyderabad MP, Asaduddin Owaisi has urged the Muslims of the country not to venture to Mosques to offer Juma Prayers considering the fear of the spread of Covid19.
In a message here on Friday, he said that he himself will not be attending the local Mosque and is offering him “Zuhr Namaz “.
He said that the decision to offer prayers at home was not only taken by the Muslim Personal Law Board, but all other sectors of the Muslim community have agreed to stay away from the crowded congregation.
“It was advised to the old people and children stay at home and not to go to the Mosque to offer prayers. And it is prayed to God that the prayers should yield the same result as it is offered from the Mosque,” Asad said adding that the 2nd stage of the COVID-19 pandemic has entered in Telangana and Hyderabad making it dangerous for people to venture out in public. He urged people not to get emotional and take care of themselves which is not against the scriptures.
“Listen to Doctors who have been telling about maintaining social distancing. There is lockdown everywhere in the country. If there is a widespread pandemic, a country like ours with poor medical infrastructure can’t offer medical aid to lakhs of people, there are only one lakh ventilators in the country,” he said. He further said that Italy and the USA, considered as rich countries, are unable to control the outbreak.
