Madikeri Jamaat decides to not hold congregational prayers at mosques for one more month
Madikeri: In the wake of State and Central Government allowing religious centers to resume operations from June 8, the Madikeri Jamaat has decided to not hold any religious activities or congregational prayers at Masjids in the city for another one month.
The move, Jamaat said came as a precautionary measure to cap the spread of the deadly virus. The decision was taken at a meeting of administrative members of all the ten mosques in the city, here on Saturday.
The Jamaat added that even during the holy month of Ramadhan, the Muslims co-operated with the government and authorities and stopped religious activities at mosques, asserting that it can further extend the non-operation of Masjid’s in the city for another month to prevent the spread of Corona Virus.
The meeting was held at Crescent School Campus in Madikeri, and was chaired by Kodagu District Jamaat President J H Mohammed Haneef and was attended by religious scholars, president, and secretaries of all the mosques of Madikeri.
