Governor of Sindh, Kamran Tessori, has called on Prime Minister Anwaar-ul-Haq Kakar and Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah to declare a public holiday on 11th Rabiul Awwal in celebration of the religious significance of the day. Rabiul Awwal, the third month of the Islamic calendar, is revered by Muslims for the birth of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
Religious Importance
11th Rabiul Awwal is considered a day of immense spiritual importance for Muslims around the world. Devotees engage in prayers, recitation of the Quran, and other religious activities to honor the Prophet’s birth and legacy. Tessori emphasized that declaring a public holiday would allow people to fully participate in these spiritual activities and observe the day in peace.
Support from Religious Scholars
Religious scholars across Sindh have voiced their support for the governor’s request, noting that a public holiday would enable greater community participation in religious events and gatherings. They argue that it would foster a sense of unity among Muslims and provide a much-needed opportunity for families to come together in devotion.
Government’s Response Awaited
While the Prime Minister’s office has not yet responded to Tessori’s request, there is growing public pressure on the government to announce the holiday. If approved, the public holiday would be observed across the province of Sindh, allowing people to celebrate in a peaceful and spiritual environment.
