Moon sighted from Dhanbad on the eve of Eid on Thursday
JAMSHEDPUR: On the eve of Eid-ul-Fitr, Muslim clerics, seminary heads and community leaders issued a set of dos and don’ts for festival enthusiasts.
Appealing to the minority community to follow Covid-appropriate behaviour, the clerics said that there shouldn’t be any public demonstration of the celebrations.
“Special prayers on Eid should be offered at home like they were offered on Alvida Jumma (last Friday),” the chief of Imarat-e-Shariah, Saud Alam Kasmi, said.
The cleric of Jugsalai mosque, Kazi Mustak Ahmed, said citizens should not visit the house of relatives and friends to exchange festival greetings and they should also not invite anyone to home to join the feast on Eid.
