We are grateful to him. Ijtema field preparation started almost one month ago with volunteer service by our Khuddam and Atfal. But due to continuous rains during preparation and ijtema days, it was a challenge to us to complete all the infrastructure. But by the grace of Allah and excellent voluntary efforts of Khuddam and Atfal, we’re able to overcome the challenges, Alhamdulillah.
The benison of Allah the Almighty may shower on us and we may able to perform our duties to the Jamaat in the best possible manners, Ameen.
