The holy Shab-e-Meraj will be observed across the country on the night of Saturday with utmost religious fervor.
Every year, on the night of Rajab 26, Muslims not only in Bangladesh, but across the world observe Shab-e-Meraj when Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (peace be upon him) embarked on a special journey to meet the Almighty Allah, reports BSS.
In the journey, the Prophet travelled on the "Buraq" to Heaven where Allah gave him some instructions to take back to the faithful regarding the details of prayers.
Muslim devotees will offer special prayers at mosques and homes seeking blessings of Allah for the welfare of the entire nation and the Muslim Ummah.
Islamic Foundation is going to hold a meeting, doa and munajat at Baitul Mukarram National Mosque at 1.30 pm highlighting the significance of Shab-e-Meraj, said a press release.
Islamic Foundation Director General (Additional Secretary) Dr Mohammad Bashirul Alam will preside over the meeting, while chairman of Arabic Department at Dhaka University Dr Md Abdul Quadir will join it as a discussant.
