Re: Request for Lai Latul Qadr Duas

The month of Ramadhan with its fasts and fadhila raato including Lai Latul Qadr will soon be with us. Traditionally around Lai Latul Qadr, Kothar's coffers brim over with a lot of money. With the current restrictions on gatherings, lockdowns, etc. Kothar must be devising back-plans. Any speculations?

Re: Coronavirus

As much as availing Barakat in 'maatam majlis', it should be emphasised to the congregants to maintain physical distance, wear masks, wash hands regularly, etc. Truly a formidable demand but imperative to follow. May Allah guide us through these difficult times.

One has to applaud the independence of the Australian justice system in expediting its duties in a timely fashion. Compare that to the Indian justice system which is meandering through a field of political, religious and covert influences.
