Raipur, April 9: On the occasion of completion of the entire Holy Quran in Taraweeh prayers led by Huffaz on the 27th night of Ramadan, there were prayers seeking for peace, harmony and happiness in the country. Hafiz Armugan who led the Taraweeh Prayers at Al-Falah tower of Jamaat-e-Islami Hind in Raipur and Mufti Hafiz Atiyab Ahmed exhorted the Muslims to read the Quran with understanding and to follow it in practice in their lives.
Taraweeh prayers said to have wonderful therapeutic and spiritual benefits were performed daily by the believers.
The Quran was revealed to Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, with the first revelations in the month of Ramadan in 610 C.E. and the Quran is a guidance for mankind aimed to distinguish between right and wrong. “Following the holy Quran in the right spirit with proper understanding of its verses will lead to enjoining right and staying away from corruption and sin that are the causes of evil and strife. Islam is the solution to all social evils and safeguards against wicked and sinful acts,” said the Mufti.
The devout Muslims who attended the completion of the entire Quran were exhorted to follow the Quran, which remains the most authentic and authoritative source for the believers besides the directives in Hadith as elucidated by Prophet Muhammad ﷺ as Sunnah.
The children who attended the Taraweeh prayers at Al-Falah Tower were encouraged and their efforts appreciated by giving them gifts as prizes.
