Streets across the country have come alive with devotion as Eid Milad-un-Nabi 2025 in Pakistan is being marked with prayers, processions, and decorated landmarks. From Rawalpindi to Lahore, and across all provinces, communities have poured out in large numbers to honour the birth anniversary of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), while the government has ensured elaborate security and festive arrangements.
In Rawalpindi alone, more than 6,000 security personnel have been deployed to safeguard the main and over 100 smaller processions. Walk-through gates, body searches, rooftop snipers, and real-time monitoring through Safe City cameras form part of a high-alert strategy. The city’s largest procession, beginning at Jamia Masjid and weaving through Raja Bazaar and Committee Chowk, will conclude with a display of unity and religious fervour. The Cantt Milad Committee is also leading its own procession, beginning from Chungi No. 22.
Security and Devotion on Display: Eid Milad-un-Nabi 2025 in Pakistan
Punjab has turned its cities into glowing symbols of reverence. Lahore’s railway station and Liberty Chowk have been adorned with green lights, lanterns, and displays of Islamic calligraphy. Children and youth staged cultural performances, including judo and karate demonstrations, while traditional horse dances added colour to the celebrations. The Parks and Horticulture Authority has decorated major squares and intersections, giving the city a festive glow. To manage the five major processions, over 1,100 traffic wardens have been stationed across Lahore.
Meanwhile, Parliamentarians have also reaffirmed their commitment to honouring the Prophet’s legacy. A Senate resolution, spearheaded by Senator Irfan-ul-Haque Siddiqui, called on governments and institutions to hold Mahafils, exhibitions, and welfare campaigns as part of the commemoration. Leaders emphasised the need for peace, unity, and harmony in line with the Prophet’s teachings.
President Asif Ali Zardari and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, in separate messages, congratulated the nation and urged citizens to live by the Prophet’s example. The Prime Minister particularly stressed rejecting prejudice and extremism, instead fostering empathy and solidarity.
Across Pakistan, mosques, homes, schools, and offices are hosting Mehfil-e-Naat, Seerat conferences, and awareness campaigns. With charity drives also underway, this year’s milestone is being celebrated not only with lights and ceremonies but also with acts of compassion.
