On the occasion of Eid, get-togethers are held at government and public levels on which lot of money is spent on illuminations, meals, variety programmes, etc.

As the present situation demands in the wake of devastating earthquake in the country, such programmes should be held in a simple manner and the amount earmarked for Eid celebrations should be donated for the earthquake victims; specially for their rehabilitation and reconstruction of infrastructure. The economic repercussions of this natural calamity will surface in due course of time.

In this hour of great tragedy, we should all bow before Almighty Allah and pray for HIS MERCY as we have transgressed the prescribed limits of legitimate living in this world as ordained by HIM.
