Mangaluru (The Hindu): Hundreds of Muslims gathered under the banner of South Karnataka Salafi Movement at Nehru Maidan here on Sunday and offered prayers seeking rain to alleviate the acute water crisis.
Khateeb of Nandavar Salafi Jumma Masjid Ahmed Ali Qasimi led the prayers. In his sermon, the Khateeb stressed the importance of using water judiciously. He cautioned people not to take God’s gift for granted and misuse it. The Khateeb noted that only when people feel water scarcity, they realised its importance.
The special prayer was called Namaz-e-Istisqa. The gathering comprised men, women and children. Movement president Abdul Razak and secretary Basheer Ahmed were present.
