Srinagar, Sep 19: The Jammu and Kashmir National Conference President, and Member of Parliament from Srinagar Dr Farooq Abdullah and Vice President Omar Abdullah have greeted people on the auspicious occasion of Khwaja Dighar to be offered at the revered Shrine of Naqshband Sahib (RA) Shrine at Khawaja Bazaar in Srinagar on third of Rabi Ul Awal.
In his message Dr Farooq said that the centuries old practice of offering congregational Asr prayers on the third of Rabi-ul-Awal at the revered shrine of Naqshband Sahib (RA) has been a part and parcel of the socio-cultural life of Kashmiris, who offer prayers and supplications on that day. On this eve the scholars recall the spiritual, scholarly and literary achievements of Hazrat Khawaja Baha Ud Din Naqshband Bukhari (RA), whom the people of Kashmir hold in highest esteem. I hope the day increases the prospects of peace, prosperity and communal harmony in Jammu and Kashmir,” he said.
