Mangalore, Oct 2: Religious fervour was in the air as Hajj pilgrims from across the city gathered at the Zeenath Baksh Yateem Khana here on Saturday Oct 2 to attend a training camp organised to give them guidance on the upcoming pilgrimage.
The training camp, attended by hundreds of men and women pilgrims, was inaugurated by Mangalore qazi Twaka Ahmed Musliar with a prayer.
Addressing the gathering, he enlightened the pilgrims on the importance of Hajj and said that every Muslim who has health as well as sufficient wealth must perform Hajj compulsorily.
The resource persons for the camp were state president of SYS Moulana Abu Sufiyan Madani and Dr Moulana Muhammed Fazil Razvi. While the former elaborated on the various procedures and rituals involved in the pilgrimage in Beary language, the latter did the same in Urdu.
A similar programme was also organised by the New Age India Forum at Bolar here.
