The event, set to take place on Eid-ul-Fitr morning, promises to unite the university community in an unprecedented display of solidarity and festive spirit.
However, the event has sparked controversy, with critics questioning its alignment with Islamic traditions.
Allegations of animal abuse and a cyber attack on a female student opposing ‘state-patronized animal abuse’ have added to the tension. Some view the rally as an ‘Bid’ah’ (innovation), while others have dubbed it ‘Riverine Islam,’ suggesting that it deviates from authentic religious practices.
The event’s secular nature and inclusivity for all religions have further intensified the debate surrounding its legitimacy.
Spearheaded by Vice-Chancellor Professor Dr. Niaz Ahmad Khan, the rally will commence at 8:00 AM following the first Eid congregation at Masjidul Jami’a, the university’s central mosque.বিস্তারিত
