Mirwaiz for contribution to rebuilding historical Bazaar Masjid, surrounding structures in Bohri Kadal
Srinagar: All Parties Hurriyat Conference senior leader Mirwaiz Umar Farooq has called upon all sections of society to come forward and provide financial and material assistance for the reconstruction of the historical Bazar Masjid and the surrounding residential and commercial structures in Bohri Kadal, Shahr-e-Khaas, Srinagar.
According to Kashmir Media Service, these structures were recently devastated by a horrific fire incident.
Addressing a large gathering before Friday prayers at the historic central Jama Masjid in Srinagar, he expressed deep sorrow and concern over the Bohri Kadal fire incident. He emphasized the need for collective efforts to help those affected.
He urged everyone to come forward in these difficult times, driven by the great Islamic spirit of mutual assistance, to fulfill community responsibilities by ensuring the reconstruction of the mosque and the rehabilitation of the affected individuals.
Mirwaiz also highlighted the importance of taking preventive measures to avoid such tragic incidents in the future.
He specifically urged the management committees and responsible authorities of all historical mosques, shrines, imambargahs, and spiritual centers in the valley to ensure safety measures.
He noted that simply painting and decorating these sacred buildings is not enough to protect them from unforeseen disasters. Instead, it is essential to ensure the installation of emergency water supply systems, fire and smoke alarms and fire extinguishers to safeguard these places from devastating incidents like fires.
