Welcome Ramzan

The holy month of Ramzan began on Tuesday and will continue until the Sawal moon is sighted. In this month, the Muslims throughout the world keep fasting from dawn to dusk, as Allah has decreed in the Holy Quran, Verse No. 2/183.
The month of Ramzan is a character building month. We must stay away from falsehood of all natures because practicing falsehood will spoil our good objectives.
So, we must be careful and should not invalidate our deeds.

We mourn the death

We mourn the murder of Mahmuda Khatun Mitu, wife of Police Super Babul Akter, and pray to Allah for the salvation of her departed soul. In this connection, we like to remind the killers that killing of an innocent human being is as if killing of the whole mankind. The part of the Verse No. 5/32 is : Whoever kills a soul unless for a soul or for anarchy [done] in the land, it is as if he had slain entire mankind. And whoever saves one, it is as if he had saved entire mankind.
 Moreover, the Prophet Muhammad (SM) in an ordinance banned killing of women, children, innocent men, priests, lame and armless, even in the battle field.
So, from the given explanations, those who had devised the killing, executed, and supported from behind are responsible for the crime. We demand justice and fair investigation.
