Kashmir Clerics to Deliver Unified Monthly Sermons on Social Issues
Kashmir's Muslim clerics, led by Hurriyat chief Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and the Mutahida Majlis Ulema (MMU), have agreed to deliver unified monthly Friday sermons across mosques and imambaras focusing on social issues such as drug addiction, environmental challenges, and social media misuse. This initiative aims to promote social reform through collective awareness and action. The practice mirrors centralized khutbahs in other Muslim-majority countries and includes outreach efforts to engage communities across the Valley.
