Thousands offer mass prayers
Mysuru: Thousands of Muslim brethren congregated at all Eidgah Grounds across the city and attended mass prayers to celebrate Eid-ul-Fitar (Ramzan) this morning. At the Eidgah Ground in Tilaknagar, Sir Khazi of Mysuru Hazarath Moulana Mohammed Usman Shariff spoke about the significance of fasting for a month and said, Muslims distribute 2.50% of their income in the name of ‘Zakath.’ ‘Fithra,’ another type of charity, is mandatory to every Muslim even for a baby born a day earlier, so that even the poor could celebrate Eid.
