Praying, observing fast and performing hajj alone are not worship rather to serve the bereaved and hapless people is true worship of God, said Abdullah Naseem, Coordinator of Human Welfare Foundation Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Gujarat while addressing a public gathering at an Iftar Kit distribution ceremony of the organisation.
Jamaat-e-Islami Hind Rajasthan in collaboration with Helping Hand Foundation on the part of Human Welfare Foundation, New Delhi distributed ration of one month to one hundred utterly poor people at Jaipur Muslim Musafirkhana, Jaipur. Naeem Rabbani, Secretary, Human Welfare Department, JIH said that this was done in the wake of Ramadhan so that the poor and the helpless can perform their religious rights peacefully throughout the holy month. He said that ration given to a family consisted of wheat flour, pulse, rice, oil, ghee, tea, sugar, dates and bottles of sherbet, etc.
In the meantime, Dr. Qasim Rasool Falahi, state secretary of JIH, threw light on the importance of service to humanity and gave an account of the service rendered by Jamaat to the humanity. While starting the programme with the recitation of a few verses of the Holy Qur’ān, Dr. Mohammed Iqbal Siddiqi, state media advisor, said that fasting has been made compulsory to create fear of God so that one can abstain from evil deeds.
The programme came to an end with prayer by Shastrinagar unit president Siraj Mohammed.
