VIRTUAL ROZA IFTAR

“End of Ramadan is the beginning of a new journey that leads to Jannah by continuing its practice throughout our life.”

Ramadan is a month of intense spiritual rejuvenation with a heightened focus on devotion, during which Muslims spend extra time reading the Quran and performing special prayers. Muslims commemorate the revelation of the Quran and fast from food and drink from dawn to dusk as a means of drawing closer to God and cultivating self-control, gratitude and compassion for those less fortunate.

CMS Aliganj Campus II organized Virtual Roza Iftar on 30th April 2021 for teachers and Muslim parents of the branch. The day started with the warm welcoming by Junior students and the wishes of Ramzan Mubarak which was followed by the welcoming of the parents, Chief Guest Respected Maulana Khalid Rasheed Farangi Mahli and our Respected Founder Manager Dr. Jagdesh Gandhi by our loving Principal Ms. Samvida Adhikari. Students of the Junior section spoke on the importance of this holy month and gratitude to the Almighty to bless all with a wonderful life through a beautiful multimedia presentation. The children of the pre-primary section spoke the beautiful quotes on Ramzan and performed on the heart-touching Naat “Ya Allah Taufeq De”. Primary students presented a mesmerizing ‘Sufi dance’ on “Neki-ki-raah” which connected everyone to the Almighty.

Respected Founder Manager Dr. Jagdish Gandhi addressed the gathering wherein the ultimate goal of fasting and gaining greater God-consciousness was shared along with the multimedia. He said that Allah showers His blessings not only on the Muslims or people keeping fast in Ramzan but also on those who organize Roza Iftar. The Chief Guest Respected Maulana Khalid Rasheed Farangi Mahli told us about the importance of the holy month Ramzan, do’s and don’ts while fasting etc. and thanked the management, principals and entire CMS faculty for regularly organizing the Roza Iftar every year with the same enthusiasm and religious faith. He enlightened us with his words of wisdom that everyone should always remember the basic teachings of the Quran which was revealed in this holy month i.e. we should work for humanity and mankind, avoid violence and telling lies, love all hate none etc.

The session ended with the beautiful performance by Pre-primary mothers along with their children on thought-provoking song “Ye mat kaho khuda se” which filled the atmosphere with positivity and faith which was followed with the heartfelt gratitude and blessings of our loving Principal, Ms. Samvida Adhikari, who acknowledged everyone’s presence and appreciated their emotions on Ramadan, she wished everyone “Ramzan Mubarak” and requested everyone to have Iftar and enjoy the feast. The parents were happy with the congregation and recognized the efforts of the management.
