INTEREST FREE BANKING SYSTEM

INTEREST FREE BANKING SYSTEM

By V.M. Khaleelur Rahman


The talk about Interest free banking system is in our country since about 50 years without a solution. Some years ago Maulana Taqi Usmani sahib also addressed a meeting in Chennai on this subject. There cannot be two opinions about the fact that "riba" is prohibited in Islam and Muslims should refrain from doing things which come under this word "riba". Riba means not only interest but all forms of exploitations. This is the reason why all the past great translators of the holy Quran had given the right meaning for it as "usury". The beauty of the holy Quran is that it prohibits any exploitation in business, not only interest.

As far as the banking interest is concerned, one feels that an industry cannot be established and managed without involving interest. If a person establishes a factory getting loan from a bank on interest and gives employment opportunities to some people, it is undoubtedly laudable. We must appreciate him. We have to move with the times to be respectable citizens of the present highly materialistic world where nobody seems to care for anybody. Giving sermons is different from practising things. This apart unless an interest free banking system comes into existence, we cannot condemn the present system in the way we usually do.

It is heartening to know that many Muslims have availed bank loans and established industries giving jobs to thousands of people belonging to all communities particularly women. It is a great venture. We salute them wholeheartedly because poor people are getting benefits.

It was reported some years ago that the Saudi Arabia and other oil rich countries had invested billions of dollars in the American and other banks and are not getting any interest and the banks use these interest amounts for their own purposes – right or wrong. How far can this be right according to Islamic principles?

I heard the speech of Maulana Taqi Usmani sahib. It was thought provoking. We have all respect for him and his thoughts based on the holy Quran and Ahaadees even though many conferences of ulema on this subject had resolved to present the issue in a different way considering the time we are living in and where an interest free banking system is not available.

To the question asked by a legislator "if a Muslim student can avail loan given by banks for seeking education", there was no reply at all. All this shows that nobody thinks of the have nots who have no other go except to avail bank loans for education and business purposes. We should understand that even well to do non-Muslims avail bank loans for educational and other purposes for the obvious reasons. Where do we stand in this regard?

We all know that the loans availed by farmers were pardoned several times in different states of the country by the state governments and even the union government some years ago. There were reports of Muslim farmers having suffered heavy losses due to their inability or aversion to get loans in states like U.P., M.P., Bihar etc.

How long should Indian Muslims wait to see Interest free banking system in our country? Quite a large sum of money is spent trying to get this.

There is an urgent need for the community particularly Ulama to discuss Bank Loan interest issue seriously arrive at a conclusion and guide the community in the present difficult times so that more and more people throughout the country may progress and prosper in educational and industrial arenas and benefit the people by providing employment opportunities.

WHERE IS REAL HAPPINESS OF EID?

REAL HAPPINESS OF EID 

BY V. M. Khaleelur Rahman 

Eid-ul-Fitr or Ramadan Eid is celebrated as a day of th

Eid-ul-Fitr or Ramadan Eid is celebrated as a day of thanksgiving to God after successful completion of the month-long fasting from dawn to dusk during Ramadan, the ninth month of the Islamic lunar calendar and on sighting the crescent moon of the 10th month called Shawwal. Ramadan is meant for fasting, worship and charity, and also for self-introspection for the purpose of purification of one's soul and body by giving up bad and attaining good things. The Holy Quran says, "Fasting is prescribed to you as it was to those before you so that you may learn self-restraint." Fasting brings people together and creates a sense of camaraderie among them. It inculcates in them righteous conduct, to be good people and brotherhood of man by eradicating evils such as anger, greed and malice.

Prophet Mohammed (Sal-am) has said, "Do not belittle even the smallest act of kindness even if it is no more than meeting your neighbour with a smiling and cheerful face. We should not consider any charity small or not worth doing. Charity, big or small, should be given in a pleasant manner without hurting the feeling of its receivers and with the thought that we are only discharging a religious duty from the wealth God has given us." According to Islam even our day-to-day acts, like being kind to others at home and outside, are charity and it makes a big difference in our relations with them.

Once when Prophet Mohammed (Sal-am) was on his way to Idgah for Id prayers, he saw a poor boy about five-years-old sitting on the pavement sadly. He went near him and asked, "Why are you alone here, my dear boy?" The boy started weeping and said, "I am an orphan with nobody to care for me." The Prophet could not bear the pathetic words of the poor boy and consoled him saying, "From now on you can look to me as your father and Ayesha as your mother," and returned home with him. When his wife Ayesha fed him and dressed him well for Id prayers the Prophet lifted him on his shoulders and said, "Ayesha, this is the happiest Id for me. I experience true happiness at the happiness of this little orphan boy." He was a great benefactor of humanity and his mission right from the beginning to end was to see that every individual maintained his self-respect free from any sort of slavery.

Remembering the late Muthavalli sahib

Assalamu Alaikum 

Ali janab Alhaj Nattamkar Abdul Wahab saheb, Muthawalli, Neel Field Mosque who passed away on March 11, 2020 had served as Muthawalli of the mosque for about 50 years efficiently administrating and expanding it beautifully with new buildings to accommodate increasing namazees. 

The commercial spaces constructed under his management for the benefit of the mosque are a testimony of his great services.

I know him since my young days.His sincere and dedicated services are appreciated by all. He did his best to improve the masjid and its revenue. 

He was connected with the Ambur Muslim Educational Society and served it being an executive body member. He was a very humble, honest and friendly person, the like of whom are rare. 

He has created a sort of history by serving the mosque for as long as some 50 years. 

We lost a sincere, humble and friendly Muthavalli sahib last year on this day. Let us pray for his maghfirat. There is need for younger generation to get inspiration from his great services for the benefit of the community.

“Muslims in BJP..." by Mr. Pavan K. Varma

The following is the letter sent to the Deccan Chronicle:

Dear Sir/Madam,

While thanking Mr. Pavan K. Varma for his beautiful article "Muslims in BJP...." (Deccan Chronicle dt.18/10/2020) about the present unfortunate political situation and mindset of Muslim leaders in the BJP, I humbly feel that the only expectation is from the self-respecting Mr. Arif Mohammed Khan, the honourable governor of Kerala, and the others mentioned in the write-up are considered non-entities from whom neither Muslims nor non-Muslims seem to expect any say on the basically communal state of affairs prevailing in the country with or without the connivance of the dirty political powers. 

A section of the print media like Deccan Chronicle and the judiciary are a strength to all the right thinking but somewhat disappointed people belonging to all communities who stand for peaceful co-existence of all sections of the society strongly believing in the secular and plural concepts enshrined in the Constitution of our country. Insha Allah time will heal the situation and make the friendly and peace loving people happy. Frankly speaking Indian Muslims do not expect anything from any leader, yes any leader and have pinned their hope in God for redressal of their grievances. Time never remains the same.People never remain the same. It is a natural phenomenon. The world is round and it revolves. We have to believe "surely with hardship comes ease". 

Thanking you,

Yours truly,

V. M. Khaleelur Rahman,

Remembering the great Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam who was like a "Sahaba".

 REMEMBERING THE GREAT DR. A.P.J. ABDUL KALAM WHO WAS LIKE A "SAHABA". 

                                                       V. M. Khaleelur Rahman

Dr. Kalam was the people’s President. All liked him and more so the students from elementary to college levels. We, the people of Ambur, were lucky to have him in our midst. He came to Ambur at the invitation of the Ambur Muslim Educational Society (AMES) and inaugurated its Centenary Celebrations held on 5^th and 6^th September 2006 in the campus of the Mazharul Uloom Higher Secondary School, Ambur.  The inaugural function took place on 4^th September 2006 along with Question-Answer session. 

Dr. A.P. J. Abdul Kalam’s inaugural address was illuminating, power-packed and question-answer session full of wise thoughts, so necessary for everyone particularly the students who are to shape the destiny of our country –the beautiful India – in future.

We must be proud that Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, a scientist par excellence, who was determined to mould the minds of the students for better India and make India a developed nation before 2020 was the President of India. 

Dr. Kalam was a great “ teacher ” worth the name. He gave importance to the teaching profession and encouraged students to dream their goals and endeavour their best to achieve them. He asked everyone to be honest and clean our society from evils like corruption.

I still remember how the people of Ambur were delighted in welcoming him at Ambur and listening to his lecture and interaction with the students which were full of honest and inspiring advice. He felt at home in the midst of the people there and wished them well.

At that time Mr. Chand Basha was the Headmaster of the Mazharul Uloom Higher Secondary School. This is one of the six institutions established and managed by the Ambur Muslim Educational Society including a full fledged Science and Arts College. He was pleasantly surprised when Dr. Abdul Kalam called him to the dais and handed over some books for the school. All this shows the intense interest he had in the spread of education and knowledge. He strongly believed that it is education which can change ones destiny for better and make our country a progressive and prosperous one. 

Dr. Abdul Kalam will always be remembered for his role as an excellent scientist, as a people’s president, as a good writer and orator and  most importantly as a humble and genuine human being. It is amazing how he carried himself and mingled with people both rich and poor. His simplicity and good nature won hearts and his words and inspirational speeches made people think and work for a better and bright future. 

Dr. Kalam was a man of principles and led a simple life working for the country and inspiring the people, particularly students, till his last. His passing away was so sudden. There is a good lesson even in his so simple passing away which can be described as a mercy of the Almighty Allah. 

The nation will always remember him. May his soul rest in peace.

Alas Jalal Ameenur Rahman sahib is no more

It is noted with much sadness that Jalal Ameenur Rahman sahib, senior advocate, Madras High Court, passed away at about 6 pm on Sunday, 2nd August 2020. He was associated with Ambur Muslim Educational Society(AMES) and many other organisations in Ambur and Chennai. His support to the AMES in its important projects cannot be forgotten. He co-operated with the Society in buying the land from his Jalal family for Mazharul Uloom College establishment and helped with the result that an excellent arts and science college was established some years ago and it is functioning well at Ambur. But for him it would not have been possible. 

He was also in leather business along with two other partners in Periamet, Chennai some years ago. 

He participated in the three day grand centenary function of Ambur Muslim Educational Society at Ambur which was inaugurated by the late President of India Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam. He was a simple and friendly person. 

I had the opportunity of meeting him several times in Periamet and educational meetings. He appreciated my replied given to baseless remarks made by one of his colleagues C. Lakshim Narain in the now defunct The Mail, an evening very popular daily newspaper and encouraged me. Its building was next to The Hindu office at Mount Road, Chennai.

Remembering the great Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam -

Remembering DR. APJ Abdul Kalam 

The following is the speech delivered by V. M. Khaleelur Rahman at the meeting organised by Ambur Muslim Educational Society at Ambur Trade Centre on 10th August 2015:

In the name of Allah, the beneficent, the merciful

Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam was a great scientist and spiritual technocrat par excellence. We all know his contribution to the country is immense. He was a great person comparable with none. He was the people’s President when he was in office and even afterwards.

What was the secret of his popularity? 

When you speak, speak the truth, perform when you promise, discharge your trust…withhold your hands from striking and from taking that which is unlawful and bad…

Gladden the heart of a human being, feed the hungry, help the afflicted, lighten the sorrow of the sorrowful…….

Dr. Kalam practised the above noble principles of the Prophet (sal-am) in his life and became the darling of the masses.

He strongly believed that all God’s creatures are His family and he is the most beloved of God who tries to do most good to God’s creatures….

His advice to students was:

Dream, Dream, Dream,

Dreams transform into thoughts,

And thoughts result in action.

When Dr. Kalam talked of dreaming, he meant that youngsters should set themselves a goal. He believed that if one firmly believes in something and makes efforts in a focused way, then one can realize his dreams. “Dreams……….is not what we see in sleep but it is the thing which does not let us sleep”. In other words Dr. Kalam wished that youngsters should aim big and work for the country’s transformation.

Why was he so popular with the children? It is because unlike other VIPs he was accessible and made the children feel important. He was never in a hurry to finish the meeting and run away. He encouraged children to ask questions and patiently answered them.

We must be proud that we had Dr. Kalam in our midst in Ambur itself. A delegation led by Mecca Rafeeque Ahmed saheb met Dr. Abdul Kalam in New Delhi when he was the President and invited him to inaugurate the Centenary celebrations of Ambur Muslim Educational Society. He magnanimously accepted it, came to Ambur and inaugurated it on 4th September 2006. That day is green in our memory. The whole of Ambur wore a festive look and the people were so excited and happy.

Dr. A.P. J. Abdul Kalam’s inaugural address impressed everyone. His question-answer session with children was thought provoking and full of encouragement to students. He was determined to mould the minds of the students to work hard to make India a developed nation by 2020.

He strongly believed that it is education which can change ones destiny for the better and make our country a progressive and prosperous one. He considered teaching as the noblest profession.

He was a scientist and a devout Muslim. He was pious in the real sense and got inspiration from the holy Quran. It is said that he never missed his fajr namaz.

Dr. Abdul Kalam will always be remembered for his role as an excellent scientist, as a people’s president, as a good writer and orator and most importantly as a humble and genuine human being.

It is heartening to know that the AMES is thinking of starting a Centre by name Dr. Kalam Vision Foundation in his memory to encourage students to emulate his example and come up in life with flying colours.

Dr. Kalam is not with us now but his shining example will always influence us.

Thank you,

Alas Dr. Jaffer Sadiq is no more

தற்சமயம் சேலம் அரசு மருத்துவமனையில் சிகிச்சை பெற்றுக் கொண்டிருக்கும் டாக்டர் ஜாபர் அவர்களுக்காக இன்று அவரை அறிந்த ஒவ்வொரு இதயங்களும் பிரார்த்தித்த வண்ணம் துடித்த வண்ணம் ஆக இருக்கின்றது காரணம்

*அவரை அறிந்தவர்கள் நன்கு உணர்வார்கள் அவரைப் போன்ற ஒரு மருத்துவர் மட்டுமல்ல ஒரு மாமனிதர் இன்னொருவர் இந்த உலகில் இப்போது இருப்பதற்கு சாத்தியமில்லை*

25 ஆண்டுகால தனது பேராசையான ஒவ்வொரு மஸ்ஜிதிலும் பல்வேறு சேவைகள் நடைபெறும் சேவை மையங்களாக இருக்க வேண்டும் என்ற கனவை MSK மஸ்ஜித் சேவை குழு செயல்படுத்தி வருகிறது என்ற தகவலை தனது முகநூல் பக்கத்தில் தொடர்ந்து பார்த்து வந்த அவர்கள் என்னை தொடர்பு கொண்டு மஸ்ஜித் சேவை குழுவை வாணியம்பாடியில் துவங்க வேண்டும் தாங்கள் ஒரு நாள் என்னை வந்து சந்திக்க வேண்டும் என்று அழைப்பு கொடுத்தார்கள்.நான் இன்றே உங்களை சந்திக்கிறேன் என்று கூறி உடனடியாக அங்கே சென்றேன்.காரணம் அவர் என்னை தொலைபேசியில் தொடர்பு கொண்ட போது நான் சென்னையிலிருந்து ஈரோட்டுக்கு வந்து கொண்டிருந்தேன் அந்த ரயில் வண்டி ஆம்பூரில் நின்றது.அவருடைய தொலைபேசியும் சரியான நேரத்தில் வந்த காரணத்தினால் உடனே இறங்கி அவர் வீட்டை நோக்கி வாணியம்பாடி சென்றேன். எனது ஆர்வத்தை பார்த்த அவர்கள் அவருடைய நீண்ட நாள் கனவை என்னிடம் பகிர்ந்து விட்டு மஸ்ஜித் சேவை குழுவை துவங்குவதற்கான முயற்சியில் ஈடுபட்டார்கள்.

தன்னிடம் அறுவை சிகிச்சைக்காக வருகிற நோயாளிகளிடம் ஏழ்மை நிலையை கண்டால் நோயாளியின் முகவரியைப் பெற்றுக் கொண்டு அந்தப் பகுதியில் உள்ள மஸ்ஜித் சேவை குழு பொறுப்பாளர்களை தொடர்பு கொண்டு உங்கள் ஊரில் இருந்து ஒரு நோயாளி என்னிடம் வந்து விட்டு சென்றார்கள் அவர்களை ஏழையாக நான் கண்டேன் அவர்கள் மூலம் எனக்கு கிடைத்த கட்டணத் தொகையை நான் உங்களுக்கு அனுப்பி வைக்கிறேன். மீண்டும் அந்த ஏழைக்கு உங்கள் சார்பாக நீங்கள் கொடுத்துவிடுங்கள் என்று கூறுவது அவரது வழக்கமாக இருந்தது. இது ஒரு முறை அல்ல பலமுறை நடந்தது

விருத்தசேதனம் என்கின்ற கத்னா செய்ய குழந்தைகளை அழைத்துக்கொண்டு பெற்றோர்கள் வந்தால் அவர்களிடம் தாங்கள் எனக்கு செலுத்த வேண்டிய தொகையை உங்கள் ஊரில் உள்ள மஸ்ஜித் சேவை குழுவுக்கு நன்கொடையாக கொடுத்து விடுங்கள் அவர்கள் ஏழைகளுக்கு அதை உணவாக வழங்கி விடுவார்கள். எனவே நான் உங்களிடம் இருந்து எந்த கட்டணத்தையும் பெறவில்லை என்று கூறிவிடுவார்கள். அவர்களிடம் விருத்தசேதனம் செய்தாள் ஓரிரு நாட்களிலேயே குழந்தைகள் நடக்க ஆரம்பித்து விடும்

ஏழைகளுக்கு உணவு வழங்கும் திட்டத்தில் தொடர்ந்து அவர்களின் பங்களிப்பு இருந்தது

திருப்பத்தூரில் மஸ்ஜித் சேவை குழு துவங்குவதற்கு அவர் மிக முக்கிய காரணமாக இருந்தார்

ஒருமுறை துபாய்க்கு சென்று துபாயில் உள்ளவர்களை ஒன்று கூட்டி இந்த மஸ்ஜித் சேவை குழுவை அவர்கள் அந்த நாட்டில் அறிமுகம் செய்து வைத்தார்கள்

அவருடைய அதிகமான கவனம் கணவன்-மனைவி ஒற்றுமையோடு வாழ வேண்டும் என்பதற்காக அடிக்கடி குடும்ப நல ஆலோச னைகளை தயாரித்து பள்ளபட்டி மற்றும் பல ஊர்களில் புதிய தம்பதிகளுக்கு வகுப்பு எடுப்பதில் மிகத் தீவிர ஆர்வம் காட்டி வந்தார்கள்

ஹஜ் பயணத்தின் போது ஹாஜிகளுக்கு சேவை செய்யும் நேரம் வந்துவிட்டால் முழுமையாக தன்னை அந்த சேவையில் அர்ப்பணித்துக் கொள்வார்கள்

உலமாக்கள் மீது அன்பும் உயர்ந்த மரியாதையும் என்றென்றும் வைத்திருந்தார்கள் காரணம் அவரும் ஒரு ஆலிமின் மகன்தான் மருத்துவராக இருந்தாலும் அவருடைய தோற்றம் வணக்க வழிபாடுகள் ஓர் முழுமையான ஆலிமுக்கு இணையாகவே இருந்தது

ஒவ்வொரு வாரமும் திங்கள் மற்றும் வியாழன் கிழமை நோன்பு பிடித்து இந்த உம்மத்திற்கு துவா செய்த வண்ணம் இருந்தார்கள்

அவருடைய ஒரே லட்சியம் ஆலிம்களின் தலைமையில் உலகம் முழுவதும் உள்ள அனைத்து மசூதிகளிலும் மக்கள் சேவை நடைபெற வேண்டும் என்பதே அவர்களுடைய இலட்சியமாக இருந்தது.

ஒவ்வொரு நாளும் சம்பாதிப்பதை அன்றே தர்மம் செய்துவிட வேண்டும் என்று நினைக்க கூடியவர் .சேமிப்பின் மீது கொஞ்சம் கூட நம்பிக்கை அற்றவர். நாளைய பொழுது இறைவன் கையில் என்று நம்பி வாழ்ந்தவர்

இப்பொழுது கூட தனியார் மருத்துவமனையில் வைத்தியம் செய்யுங்கள் என்று கூறிய பொழுது அதற்காகும் செலவுகளை தர்மமாக செய்துவிடுங்கள் என்று கூறியதாகக் கேள்விப்பட்டேன் .

எவ்வளவு நெருக்கமான உறவாக, நண்பர்களாக இருந்தாலும் திருமணத்தை மஸ்ஜிதில் வைத்து நடத்தினால் மட்டுமே அவர்கள் கலந்து கொள்வார்கள். மண்டபத்தில் வைத்தால் அவர் கலந்து கொள்வதில்லை

ஏழ்மையில் உள்ளவர்களுக்காக எளிமையின் மொத்த உருவமாகவே வாழ்ந்து கொண்டிருக்கிற நம்முடைய பாசத்திற்குரிய டாக்டர் அவர்கள் விரைவில் நலம் பெற்று திரும்ப வேண்டும் என்று எல்லாம் வல்ல அல்லாஹ்வை கண்ணீருடன் பிரார்த்திக்கிறேன்.

ஒரு குகைக்குள் மூன்று பேர்கள் அடைந்து கொண்டார்கள்.அதன் வெளியே ஒரு பெரிய கல் ஒன்று மூடிவிட்டது.அப்பொழுது ஒவ்வொருவரும் தங்களுடைய வாழ்க்கையில் செய்த நற்காரியங்களை கூறி இறைவனிடம் பிரார்த்தித்தார்கள் அந்தக் கல் கொஞ்சம் கொஞ்சமாக நகர்ந்தது . அதேபோல டாக்டர் அவர்கள் செய்த நற்காரியங்களை நாம் ஒருவருக்கொருவர் பகிர்ந்து கொண்டு அல்லாஹ்விடம் முறையிடுவோம் அதன் மூலமாக அவர் முழுமையாக அந்த நோயில் இருந்து விடைபெற்று நீண்ட நாட்கள் மக்கள் பணியாற்றுவார் என்று நம்புகிறேன் அந்த அடிப்படையில் இந்த செய்தியை உங்களுக்கு நான் பகிர்கிறேன் இது அவரைப் பற்றி நான் அறிந்த ஒரு துளி மட்டுமே

Prophet’s guidelines

The COVID-19 pandemic is forcing governments and news sources to provide the most accurate and helpful advice to the world's population, as the disease is indeed global in reach. Health care professionals are in high demand, and so too are scientists who study the transmission and effect of pandemics.
Experts like immunologist Dr. Anthony Fauci and medical reporter Dr. Sanjay Gupta are saying that good hygiene and quarantining, or the practice of isolating from others in the hope of preventing the spread of contagious diseases, are the most effective tools to contain COVID-19.
Do you know who else suggested good hygiene and quarantining during a pandemic?

Muhammad, the prophet of Islam, over 1,300 years ago.

While he is by no means a "traditional" expert on matters of deadly diseases, Muhammad nonetheless had sound advice to prevent and combat a development like COVID-19.
Muhammad said: "If you hear of an outbreak of plague in a land, do not enter it; but if the plague outbreaks out in a place while you are in it, do not leave that place."

He also said: "Those with contagious diseases should be kept away from those who are healthy."
Muhammad also strongly encouraged human beings to adhere to hygienic practices that would keep people safe from infection. Consider the following hadiths, or sayings of Prophet Muhammad:

"Cleanliness is part of faith."

"Wash your hands after you wake up; you do not know where your hands have moved while you sleep."

"The blessings of food lie in washing hands before and after eating."

And what if someone does fall ill? What kind of advice would Muhammad provide to his fellow human beings who are suffering from pain?
He would encourage people to always seek medical treatment and medication: "Make use of medical treatment," he said, "for God has not made a disease without appointing a remedy for it, with the exception of one disease—old age."

Perhaps most importantly, he knew when to balance faith with reason. In recent weeks, some have gone so far as to suggest that prayer would be better at keeping you from the coronavirus than adhering to basic rules of social distancing and quarantine. How would Prophet Muhammad respond to the idea of prayer as the chief—or only—form of medicine?

Consider the following story, related to us by ninth-century Persian scholar Al-Tirmidhi: One day, Prophet Muhammad noticed a Bedouin man leaving his camel without tying it. He asked the Bedouin, "Why don't you tie down your camel?" The Bedouin answered, "I put my trust in God." The Prophet then said, "Tie your camel first, then put your trust in God."
Muhammad encouraged people to seek guidance in their religion, but he hoped they take basic precautionary measures for the stability, safety and well-being of all. In other words, he hoped people would use their common sense.

Coronavirus: UAE prayers at places of worship suspended for 4 weeks

Coronavirus: Prayers at UAE mosques, other places of worship suspended for four weeks

Ahmed Shaaban 

Last updated on March 16, 2020 at 08.27 pm

(alamy.com/ae)

Congregational prayers, including those offered on Friday, have been suspended across all mosques in the UAE for a period of four weeks. The General Authority of Islamic Affairs and Endowments (GAIAE) said late on Monday that the decision was taken to avoid the spread of Covid-19 and protect public health.

The decision applies to all places of worship like temples and churches.

The decision was based on the directives issued by the National Emergency Crisis and Disaster Management Authority (NCEMA) and Ministry of Health and Prevention. It was guided by a fatwa issued by the UAE Fatwa Council.

"At mosques, only the Azan (call for prayer) will be given out to alert worshippers about prayer times. Mosque doors will remain closed," the GAIAE said. "The words 'pray at home' will be repeated twice at the end of the Azan."

The call that signals the start of a prayer won't be made. Ablution halls at mosques will also be closed. "The situation on the current Covid-19 pandemic will be reassessed after four weeks."

The GAIAE appealed to all mosque-goers and worshippers to comply with the directive and offer their five daily prayers at home.
