EID MILAD-UN-NABI CELEBRATIONS BY HOPE


Those who celebrate the day of birth of Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H.) do it because they feel happy and when it comes to happiness, Islam wants the followers to spread it as much as possible. In addition to fulfilling the Sunnah of Prophet Muhammed (P.B.U.H.), by giving charity a Muslim ensures that those who also wish to celebrate this day as a joyous occasion also have access to the means of joy. It is also necessary that they celebrate it in the same spirit of kindness as they do on the day of Eid.
Considering the significance of Eid Milad-un-Nabi (P.B.U.H.) the day was observed at different centers of HOPE in Karachi and Thatta. The objective of this celebration was to pay homage to the Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H.) for his greatest and divine services to Islam and mankind. All colleagues from the various centers of HOPE were invited over to attend the occasion together. They seemed very happy about the idea of promoting Islamic teachings in this way. Students of different formal and informal schools run by HOPE-An NGO in Pakistan were also invited.






The occasion started with the recitation of the Holy Quran. Students and staff whole heartedly presented Qaseeda Burda Shareef which was so breathtaking that it touched the depth of the hearts. HOPE’s women employees of different centers also participated and shed light on the Prophet Muhammed’s life, sayings, teachings and philosophies. Stories and incidents from his life of morals, such as forgiveness, kindheartedness, bravery, wisdom, honesty, and lovingness, were quoted. It was pleasure to see the enthusiasm of students and staff, as they recited Naats with full devotion. HOPE-An Educational NGO in Pakistan tries to create opportunities to promote the talent hidden in these underprivileged children as well as inducing religious spirit in them. Milad was the perfect occasion to let these students show their respect for our beloved Prophet (P.B.U.H.) through recitation of Naat and Durood o Salaam. Famous Naat khuwans were also invited to recite Naats in their beautiful voice to increase the feeling of devotion. The way they presented the Naats enthralled the audience.







The Milad concluded with a special “Dua” made to heal the pain of all Muslims and ease their hardships. The “Dua” ended with best wishes for the progress of HOPE so that it will continue its efforts with more enthusiasm to serve the poor people in Pakistan under the leadership of Dr. Mubina Agboatwalla-A Child Specialist in Karachi. Delicious snacks and sweets were distributed among the guests at the end of Milad.
