SRINAGAR: Mirwaiz e Kashmir and All Parties Hurriyat Conference leader Mirwaiz Dr Umar Farooq has lamented that people in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir have been forced to live in such an atmosphere of fear and uncertainty that they do not even know whether next Friday or Eid prayers will be allowed in the territory.
Addressing a large public gathering in Srinagar, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq appealed for harmony and unity across all sects during these tumultuous times, saying those propagating hate should be explicitly pulled down from pulpits.
Without mentioning the RSS-backed Indian regime’s machinations to divide Kashmiri people on communal and sectarian lines, Mirwaiz urged people to remain vigilant and united against such divisive forces.
He emphasized the need to thwart hate-mongering voices, advocating for their explicit condemnation from pulpits.
Mirwaiz underscored the importance of utilizing mosques, seminaries, shrines, and religious centers in IIOJK to foster religious unity, emphasizing it as imperative in the current circumstances.
He announced the observance of Jumatul Vida as Yaum-e-Dua (Day of Prayer) in Kashmir and expressed deep sorrow over the silence of Muslim countries regarding the dire situation in Palestine.
