The move comes in the wake of the surge in coronavirus cases and ongoing lockdown.
No religious congregations were held in Kashmir at any popular shrines or mosques on the last Friday of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan in the wake of the surge in corona virus cases and the ongoing lockdown. A spokesman of the Anjuman Auqaf, which organises prayers at historic Jamia Masjid, said it had cancelled the prayers on Jumat-ul-vida. “People are asked to spend these holy occasions, especially the last 10 days of Ramadan, at their homes by holding special prayers and pray to the Almighty Allah to grant us complete refuge from the deadly virus,” the spokesman said.
