Islamabad
\nIn accordance with the special instructions of the Ministry of Religious Affairs and Interfaith Harmony, Government of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, the celebration of Eid Milad-un-Nabi (PBUH) is being observed this year, as always, with great devotion and reverence by all ministries and major national institutions.
\nIn this regard, a gathering of Darood-o-Salaam (Salutations upon the Holy Prophet ) was organized in the main hall of the National Highway Authority (NHA) Headquarters, a subsidiary of the Ministry of Communications.
\nSince all senior officials of the Ministry of Communications and the NHA are actively engaged in the restoration of flood-affected roads and bridges, and in providing continuous support to the flood victims, it is commendable that despite their ongoing responsibilities, the NHA administration, officers, and staff organized this blessed gathering with sincere dedication.
\nWhat made this event especially honorable was that, in the spirit of interfaith harmony, the arrangements for this spiritual gathering were overseen by Mr. Shankar Lal, General Manager of Budget & Accounts at NHA, who is of the Hindu faith.
\nIn a heartfelt expression of reverence, Mr. Shankar Lal stated that:
\nProphet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) is a beacon of mercy and blessings for the entire universe and a guiding light for all humanity. He conveyed the divine message of Allah to every element of creation\u2014humans, jinn, plants, stones, and every particle of existence.\u201d
\nHe emphasized that it is essential not only for the Muslim Ummah but for all nations of the world to strictly adhere to the commands of Allah and the teachings of the Holy Prophet \ufdfa. That is where true success and salvation lie.
\nHe further stated:
\nLet us make unity and harmony our mission. Let us rise above petty disputes and adopt patience, tolerance, and forbearance as our identity. Through our actions, we must show the world that we are the very people who can lead and guide humanity with excellence.\u201d
\nThe gathering began with a recitation of the Holy Qur\u2019an, followed by the recitation of Naats (poetry in praise of the Prophet) by various Naat Khwans.
\nThe event witnessed the enthusiastic participation of all officers and staff of NHA.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
